Gift packaging and their various uses

By Magriet

People started giving each other gifts on the first day of January.This was around the winter Solace and the idea was for prosperity and sweetness. Wikipedia says that the history of gift giving can be traced back to the time of the Romans. Later years they gave cakes for gifts, although they started of by giving evergreen branches.

Gift Packaging become more and more involved, over the years researched was done for maximum effect. Excitement and suspense are created by receiving a covered gift. Originally fabric was used to cover gifts. Later brown paper was used. Because of the versatile use of paper, Gift Wrap became popular. You can cover just about any shape using Gift Wrap.

When wanting a firmer and neater look, Gift Boxes are ideal.Travelling to family and friends over the Christmas period gifts needs to be transported. Gift Boxes makes it easy to transport those fragile and odd shaped gifts. Create a personal theme and look by decorating your Gift Boxes with different Ribbons and Raffia.

Gift Boxes decorated with custom made ribbons and with a logo printed on are preferred by Companies. Gift Packaging can be complimented by adding custom made Tissue Paper to the inside of Gift Boxes. Not only will it add some colour but cushion a fragile gift while transporting. Gift Packaging will make a powerful impact if the receiver's style is considered.

Gift Bags became popular at events and promotional drives. Gift Bags are available in different sizes and colours. They can even be made up according to your specific size and specifications. Gift Bags can be printed with your company logo or your own designer paper can be used to make them up with.

What is a weddings or ladies functions without Organza Gift Bags? Not only do they add a feminine touch to your gifts but also create a romantic look. Organza bags are available in just about any colour and size. Add satin ribbons to match your colour scheme or add dots to create your own personal touch.

Corrugated Gift Boxes can be made up in natural corrugated board or standard colours.African curios are nicely set of in this earthy look style. Since Corrugated board is manufactured by using recycled paper and are bio degradable it makes them excellent for the green conscious users.

My all time favorite is Aluminium Tins because you can put just about any gift inside. They are durable and when printed or branded will be a long term reminder of your company to the end user. Aluminium tins can be reused for cookies, odds and end, children toys and garage organizers.
