Beautiful Christmas Wrappings

ECBG — Wed, 11 Nov 2020 01:25:32 GMT

I buy most of my wrapping papers from Current. Remember the cute little note cards with animals when we actually used stationary?

These papers are heavy weight and box corners don't tear through.

They have matching tissue, name tags and things to tie on. There's always a deal!

Our sons always brought their friends in to show them the bows I tied with all of the greenery as well as ornaments. I have the MOST fun!

@ECBG Really liked the last one. I'm partial to solid or mostly solid colors in wrapping. That way the robbons and ornaments I add can be featured.

Thank you for the nostalgia, @ECBG ! I remember looking through the Current catalogs with my mom many years ago. They always had so many beautiful wrappings and cards!

Everything they have in wrappings is beautiful and equals Hallmark quality. I bought a wrapping at a discount store once. It was terrible to wrap with and took extra time. It didn't look as nice as the others when it was finished. I was done.

So pretty! The cardinal paper is my favorite. I used to look at the Current catalogs all the time but haven't seen one in years.

I walked into a sale on Hallmark paper a few years ago. It was only 25 cents a roll and I definitely got carried away! The paper will outlast me.

How neat to see your post today because my box of Current wrapping paper just arrived as well!

I have been shopping from them for ages and every other year or so I put in an order. This year I did it online as they did not send me a catalog.

I like the strength of the paper and the many lovely designs.

I always buy at least one metallic paper to wrap jewelry gifts for an extra sparkle!

These are all pretty. Love the stars the best. I haven't seen a Current Catalog in years. Always enjoyed it.

@ECBG Thank you for posting about Currents. I ordered many things in the past, and just this morning I came across a new set of recipe cards that I must have ordered about 40 years ago from their catalog (no Internet then). They still look good. I definitely will be checking out their website.

@ECBG

I'm a firm believer in wrapping every present, bags not allowed.

Yours are beautiful.

I've also had a lot of success buying Christmas paper from local fundraisers.

Some are even reversible.

Those are just beautiful but I no longer have any gifts to wrap. The only actual gift I give is to my grandson and I have it shipped directly to him.

@ECBG : Just looked at the current website to order Christmas wrapping paper and the EDD is 12/11/20 and the paper is in stock- no back order. I want everything wrapped before that date. I also like the Bed Bath and Beyond wrapping paper and no delivery just store pick up😢😳

@ECBG Beautiful! I love Current, I have purchased for years. I have several rolls of Christmas paper, so it will last. I like a wrapped gift vs a bag, but we have cut back our Christmas gifts, so it will last me a while. Their cards are nice quality. Have been buying from Current for a long, long time. Their wrapping papers are so nice.

If if I remember, I want to say we had Current as a fundraiser probably in the 60’s in Catholic schools! Not 100% sure, but I think so. I want to say that is how we found out about Current in the first place. I know I have been buying there since the 80’s at least. Your wrappings make me smile.
