Different Gift packaging and their 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.

Over the years Gift Packaging become more and more involved and researched for maximum effect. Covering gifts creates excitement and suspense. Originally gifs was covered in fabric and then brown paper was used. Gift Wrap became popular because of the versatile use of paper. Just about any shape can be covered.

In order to get a firmer and neater look Gift Boxes was introduced. Over the Christmas period lots of families travel to either holiday or family destinations. It is a lot easier to transport gifts in Gift Boxes. Decorate Gift Boxes with Ribbons and Raffia in such a way that it compliments the receivers style and taste.

Corporate Companies prefer Gift Boxes with their logo printed on or decorating their Gift Boxes with custom made Ribbons. Custom made Tissue Paper can be added to the inside of Gift Boxes to add some colour, cushion a fragile gift or just to add some spice to the Gift Packaging. It is best to consider the receiver of the gift when planning your Gift Packaging.

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.

Aluminium Tins are my favorite. They are durable and have so many uses. Aluminium Tins can be printed on for branding purposes. Using tins your customer will remember you a lot longer than with a Gift Bag. Women love to reuse Aluminium tins for odds and ends around the house.
