Holiday Gift Wrapping Trends 2009…Festive Tsutsumi…
Japanese Gift Wrapping Style “Tsutsumi” has always been one of my most favorite ways to decorate gift packages. Japanese papers are not only beautiful but also great to work with. There are so many different kinds…but a very specific type to use in “Tsutsumi”. Green, Gold and Red are the traditional colours of Christmas. I have used glittered paper accents {by the way, glitter is everywhere, I am so happy!} on these packages along with techniques such as paper pleating, Mizuhiki…
