I've not got any yet! I usually wrap them in a mishmash of 4 different rolls and stick tags on them.

It would be easier to wrap each child's presents in one roll but I don't like the way it looks lol.
 
I love mixing up papers up! I have some adult paper and more kiddy paper but several rolls of each and wrap everyones presents with a few different types of paper. When I was a kid, I loved hunting through the pile to find ones with my name on :)

I cant stand cheap paper though, which seems to be see through or rips easily... I bought some from studio 24 once and it was dreadful.
I also hate spending tons of money or glorified paper though, so im always on the hunt for a bargain :D
 
I use brown paper or traditional looking paper. I can't stand paper that has nothing to do with christmas; toy story, cupcakes, disney princess paper. all a huge no no. very paticular about my paper hahah

oh yes im not big character paper fan


I am the same, I only use character paper for my LO's birthdays :)
 
Santa has his own paper, then i buy a load of rolls different and just mix and match. Santa is getting them a train table and whatever is on their lists this year so wont need much wrap from him lol. I confess i normally Go to discount places and get 5-10m at a time for £1 lol. I dont really worry about appearance nowadays.....it all ends up in rubbish bags anyway lol.
 
I normally buy red paper with Santa and reindeers on and then wrap dd's presents up from Santa in all of that and then the joint presents and stuff from us I use different paper this year I have brought Frozen wrapping paper as the girls love it, I don't normally go for character paper but it's quite christmassy with snowflakes etc on it
 
I bought paper for the kids this year in January from Asda when it was down to 15p a roll. It's a light blue colour with snowmen on I think, I'll get a picture next time I'm admiring my stash :haha:
DH's presents and friends/family will be wrapped in brown paper with ribbon x
 
I love this!

All my presents have to be wrapped in 'themed' paper. Can't stand any character paper or mismatches!
 
^^ love those Steph!

Anyone know where i can buy some decent (but cheap) brown paper and tags? Gonna do that for the adults and then whatever i come across that i like for th ekiddos x
 
I just buy parcel paper from the post office, pound shop etc. M&S have lovely tags in though and candycane string. Otherwise, try Hobbycraft.
 
I'm looking for some really nice foil wrapping paper this year, if anyone has any recommendations? :)
 
I love this!

that's gorgeous!

not wrapping paper but i bought 2 of the huge gift bags from card factory, gonna get 2 more, one bag is for their matchy presents (the ones i've bough the same eg. jigsaw, bath set, sound book), the other will be presents they have different and their big presents will be on the floor. i'm hoping this will make it a bit organized and not them just opening stuff everywhere.
 
It depends year to year. This year I want to get two different wrapping papers for gifts from us: Silver and Gold. And I'm thinking Frozen for gifts from Santa, assuming I can find paper with that theme.

I don't do different paper for each girl. Just mix it up as I see fit.

The entertainer sell a 2 piece pack with tags of frozen paper for £1
 
I have different paper for the kids, always bright and colorful. I then do something different for the adults, normally traditional gold and silver with lots of ribbon.

This year I'm thinking of doing 'brown paper packaging tied up with strings' for the adults.

I love mixing up the paper. Going to try and use up the extra paper I have this year instead of going and buying more as I tend to buy new every year and end up with left overs.
 
I have lots of paper left over from last year so I need to get that out and look at what I have. I use lots of different paper but each person has to have the same paper for all of their presents.

This is the paper I'm thinking of getting for DDs santas presents

I got an 8m roll of brown paper for £1 in ikea. They had nice tags as well.
 
Bought these yesterday
Im considering doing instead of all presents from santa doing one bag of stuff from me (the presents they have the same like a onsie each, a puzzle book, a sound book etc.)
morgan will have the blue paper with writing and harvey will have the other blue one
The goldey brown paper will be presents from me

For noah and esmé they will each have their own paper. I haven't found any yet though. For OH i usually buy a co-ordinating set so there not all wrapped the same but they match. For everyone else this year im doing brown paper and fabric christmas ribbon.
