Personalise your presents with Wrap.me

As babies, all of my children preferred the wrapping paper to the gift when it came to Christmas presents.  It seems to be a fact of life that regardless of the amount of thought that goes into choosing the perfect present, the colourful paper surrounding it simply holds more appeal. This Christmas, I think this will hold true for the adults too, but for a completely different reason.  This year it's what's on the outside that counts!

Wrap.me is a company that lets you put the perfect finishing touch to presents by providing personalised gift wrap, made using up to 30 images taken from your desktop or social media.  The wrapping paper is then printed with or without borders as a sheet or a roll, ready to make your gifts look amazing.



I was sent a sample made using some of my Christmassy pics I had taken at the Manchester Christmas Markets.  There is something so special about seeing your own children's faces wrapped around a Christmas present.  It really is the ultimate personal touch to a thoughtful gift for a loved one, providing the perfect connection between yourself and who you are giving the gift to and telling a story. Grandparents will go crazy for it!

The potential to design a sheet of wrapping paper using specially taken photographs using props and poses is enormous.  There are endless possibilities and with a little effort you can create some amazing bespoke gift wrap. You could have a LOT of fun with this product.
