Why You Need to be Gift Wrapping Every Present 

October 11, 2021

Why You Need to be Gift Wrapping Every Present 

As long as humanity has existed, we’ve been giving each other gifts. And while we haven’t been using gift wrap for quite that long, the tradition of disguising the contents of a gift before it’s given is still quite old. Now wrapping gifts is not just about ensuring the recipient can’t tell what they’re about to be given, but about putting in the extra effort to give their gift style and pizzazz. For some people, gift wrapping and styling is optional. The present is what you got for them, not how it looks, right? 

While its technically true that the actual present is what you’re giving them, gift wrap is anything but optional. The wrapping paper, ribbons and bows you use to decorate your gift may only be icing on the cake, but who wants a cake without icing? 

Do Gifts Need To Be Wrapped?

No matter how you give your gift, it’s still a thoughtful gesture for your loved ones. Going out of your way to decorate birthday presents or purchase Christmas wrapping paper and decorative bows wont do anything to change the substance of your gift or make it any better or worse. But since the purpose of giving a gift isn’t just to hand someone stuff, but to offer a sentimental token of your love for them, then gifts do need to be wrapped. An unwrapped gift seems careless and takes away a lot of the fun and magic that makes gift exchanges so exciting. 

Why Is Wrapping Presents Important?

People wonder why its important to wrap gifts if the wrapping is only going to be torn to pieces moments after the gift is given. But gift wrap does a lot more than simply keep your gift a mystery. Taking the time to carefully wrap a present, or arrange it in a fun gift bag with tufts of tissue paper, shows your friends and family members that are you care enough to go the extra mile. 

Wrapped presents have a sense of occasion and gravitas that unwrapped gifts just cannot compete with. Marveling at the beauty of your perfectly wrapped present, which your friend prepared just for you. The excitement and mystery of not knowing what you’ve been gifted, the anticipation of ripping off paper and discovering your gift. All of these things are part and parcel of the excitement and celebration of exchanging gifts. 

Why Is Gift Wrapping Is Not Necessarily Confined To Paper

While wrapping paper is one of the most commonly used ways to decorate a present, gift wrap doesn’t stop and end with paper. Gift bags and gift boxes are another stylish and easy way to spruce up your gift and show your friends you care enough to add a little razzle dazzle to their present.
