  Gift giving is about more than just the gift itself. Half the joy you experience is
presenting a loved one or friend with a beautifully wrapped package, and the
other half is when they discover your perfectly chosen present. Often, even a
moderately priced gift seems far more special than an expensive one when
you spend time and effort making the presentation personal. However, not
everyone has the time to make two shopping trips for every occasion: one for
the gift and one to a specialty paper store to buy supplies for a one-time
wrapping.

At Olive Paper, we believe in planning ahead. Our
Wrap Collections are
designed to help you adhere to these three most important ideas:
     
 

Be Prepared

Stock up on solid color papers, and prints that are useful on a variety of occasions. Olive makes this easy -
instead of offering a sheet or two at a time, our beautiful cutter rolls supply you with enough paper for over 40
gifts each. Our new shorter retail rolls allow you to keep a variety of paper patterns so you'll never run out
of ideas. Higher quality paper makes for better wrapping, and ours comes at a fraction of what you'd pay in a
store. Another way we make being prepared easy is with our pre-coordinated wrap combinations. You'll find
these in each of the five
Wrap Collections, so you'll always have a complete wrapping solution at the ready.

Be Creative

We have spent a lot of time putting together the complimentary colors and prints that make up our collections,
so you don't have to make too many decisions if you don't have the time. However, we encourage you to infuse
your gift wrapping with your own sense of creativity. Mix and match papers, bags, and ribbons to your heart's
content, or add some accessories from the
A La Carte section. Take a stroll over to the "Wrap Technique" and
"
Creative Ideas" sections to get started.

Be Yourself

Gift giving is about self-expression, and presenting someone with a part of yourself. Don't spend too much energy trying to re-create something you've seen in a magazine or on TV. The most important aspect of any gift is that the
recipient knows you have spent time thinking about them, and that can be as simple as tying a single satin bow.
