Gift wrapping tips from NBS
An attractive and personalized gift box makes the gift inside doubly special. National Book Store offers neat materials to make holiday gift-wrapping fun and easy.
• Never underestimate the power of good wrapping paper. Check out the wide range of Hallmark gift wrappers at NBS for as low as P11.75 per single roll. Bulk packs are also available. NBS carries metallic, glossy, abaca handmade paper, and many other varieties, so whether you’re gunning for classy or cutesy, you’re sure to find the perfect one.
• Add an instant festive feel to your gift package with bows. Use ribbons that complement your wrapping paper or box so the colors won’t clash. A variety of lace is available in different colors. If your crafting skills aren’t up to par, a lot of elaborate, ready-made ribbons are also on hand.
• Use unique elements such as scrapbooking materials, buttons and ornaments. Check out the All About Scrapbooking line of craft items to give your gift that extra oomph.
• Use double-sided tape for a seamless look.
• Use a decorated box or paper bag if you have no time to wrap. At NBS, you’ll find plenty of gift boxes in different colors, shapes, and sizes. For fragile items, try Best Buy Japanese paper or Wrap ’Em Up Gift Wrap Tissue (P9.50/pack) for cushioning.
