Rose and Bows wrapping paper | 3 m

Rose and Bows combines the roses and little bows that characterise this Cath Kidston composition. The pale background brings out the details and gives the wrapping paper a gentle, slightly retro feel. Distributed by Ohh Deer, it suits a birthday, a gift for a host or a thank-you present. The design is also available as a bag in the selection; choose the roll when you prefer a folded, closed parcel.

A roll to suit each parcel

Rose and Bows wrapping paper comes as a three-metre roll, sold individually. Cut the length to suit the gift rather than starting with a precut sheet. Before cutting, try it around the box, leaving a little extra for the flaps. The number of parcels you can wrap depends entirely on their dimensions and how you arrange the paper; it is not fixed in advance.

Take care with folds and the message

Place the gift in the centre of the prepared piece, then check the direction of the pattern before closing the parcel. Make the folds gradually to avoid unnecessary bulk. If the object has an irregular shape, put it in a suitable box first: the paper is for presentation, not for holding or protecting a fragile object. Slip a card under a ribbon or string to keep the message visible without writing directly on the print.

Choose a finish that works with the design

To show off Rose and Bows, pick out one colour from the design for the ribbon or label. A contrasting finish draws more attention to the parcel, while a neutral shade lets the illustration take centre stage. Choose these accessories separately: this reference is a roll of wrapping paper. The photographs show the pattern and how it looks wrapped; they do not represent an assortment of several rolls that you will receive.

Store the roll between occasions

After wrapping, roll up the remaining paper neatly and keep it away from moisture, splashes and friction. Avoid placing a heavy object on top to limit marks. Offcuts that are large enough can cover a small box or make a matching gift tag. This simple approach keeps the pattern in good condition for the next gift without having to unroll all the paper.
