Interiors Pinspiration: Festive Wrapping with Foliage

Interiors Pinspiration: Festive Wrapping with Foliage

This week on Pinterest, we’re getting prepped for Christmas and planning some gorgeously green wrapping…

We take our festive wrapping very seriously here at Image Interiors & Living, and this year we’re trying?to get a jump on our gift festooning. After much experimentation with wrapping papers of every hue and pattern over the years, we’ve started to think that maybe the most appealing of adornments might be those that are the least fussy.

This year we’re going to go for a more pared-back look when it comes to our wrapping, inspired by design bloggers aplenty. Using brown paper (harkening back to the good old days of covering our school books, before iPads made us all obsolete) and string, we’re going to craft the simplest of present packages.

Then we’ll finish them off with some simple pretty perennial greenery liberated?from the garden: a delicate sprig of eucalyptus here, a birch branch there, or even a sweet ring of fragrant pine – these pics via Pinterest will show you what we mean…
