10 Gift Wrapping Essentials You Need This Holiday Season
Best part about holidays, other than the food fest and gatherings are wrapping, styling and unwrapping beautiful gifts. Although, unwrapping a pretty gift is the bitter-sweet part! By now I’m sure you’re running around the town looking for perfect gifts for your near and dear ones. In this post I’m going to talk about the wrapping up those pretty gifts.
Wrapping up a big pile of gifts can be overwhelming especially if you don’t have the right tools to your disposal. I’m sharing 10 gift wrapping essentials from Amazon that each have raving reviews, high ratings, and ton of use. As someone who loves aesthetics and decor, I take my gift wrapping very seriously! If you relate to this, read this post and check out the products I have recommended. I promise you these will make the gift wrapping tasks feel like a breeze!
This is what I’m talking about ;)

Let’s begin!
1. Wrapping Paper Clamps
Starting with the best, this tool will do the job of clamping onto the wrapping paper as you roll it out on a surface. It clamps onto most of the tables and all you have to do is load the wrapping roll in between the two clamps (they come in a pair). The USP for this product has to be the in-built tape dispenser! And if you’re worrying about any damages to your surface from these clamps, rest assured, the clamps have a rubber material that will do no harm to any surface.
2. Wrapping Paper Roll Holder Clips
I hate it when after I’m done using a wrapping roll it unravels and almost each time ends up tearing off around the edges. To avoid this, here’s a mind-blowing solution. Holder clips! These snap onto the roll like those snap-on bracelets you’ll find in the kids section, saving you the paper and money. This particular product I’ve linked below comes in three options - a set of 12, 24 and 36.
Check out this YouTube video, he talks about all the ingenious gift wrapping tools out there.
3. Wrapping Paper Organzier
As a type A personality nothing triggers my anxiety more than a messy system, otherwise and particularly around the holiday and hosting season. It’s a must for me to organize everything to the tee (and keep staring back at it to admire the job well done! haha) before it gets busy. If you don’t already have one, I would highly recommend buying this wrapping paper organizer that is literally a one-stop-shop for when you sit to wrap the pile of gifts.
This storage organizer holds 22 rolls, a ton of ribbon, has compartments for storing gift bags, gift tissues (which can be super delicate and easy to tear), bows, cards, basically everything you would need to wrap a gift.
I simply love this storage organizer I have! Makes my job so much easier.
4. Wrapping Paper Hanging Storage
If you want to optimize vertical space, this is a great alternative to the storage organizer above. This hanging storage also holds a lot of essentials, be it the wrapping paper, gift bags, bows, tape, etc. This is perfect for you if you don’t have too many gift wrapping supplies but still enough that they need to be organized for easy use.
5. Wrapping Paper Cutter
It’s time to talk about the WINNER of gift wrapping tools you need! The ingenious product that will no longer require you to stress about cutting a wrapping paper in a straight line without damaging it or cutting it unevenly. All you have to go it run this tool along the paper once you know how much you need and voila! Best part, it’s super safe to use as compared to a paper cutter tool or a scissor.
6. Scotch Magic Tape
Something we need in bundles is a good tape to make the gift wrapping easy. Don’t forget, buying them in bulk is cheaper than buying individual packs at a local store.
7. Scotch Double-sided Tape
If you’re like me and hate seeing tapes all around a gift, I recommend using a double sided tape. The one from Scotch is the best, it does not come off, holds both sides in place perfectly and is also super easy to use. I love how clean and tidy the gift looks.
8. Honeycomb Packing Paper
This is a must-have if you’re planning to gift glass items like maybe a serveware, bottle of wine, perfume. Not only does it secure the product but also makes the wrapping job easy. I also love the honeycomb design that adds onto the appeal of a beautifully wrapped gift.
9. Ribbon Holder
As elegant as they are, ribbons can ironically be a messy business if not stored properly. You know what I’m talking about if you love using ribbons to wrap gifts. This ribbon storage is a great solution to store and use ribbons. It holds multiple rolls and is easy to roll and put away the ribbon after each use.
10. Gift Wrapping Storage Cart
To take the gift wrapping activity to a whole new level you can also have a dedicated station that holds all the supplies. This particular cart is specifically built for gift wrapping so it has features like paper roll slots, peg boards to hang ribbons, open shelves to keep the gifts, drawers to hold more supplies. It’s a perfect cart if you like having everything in one place and the best part is - it has wheels which makes it even more easier to move it around.
