Wrapping Paper
1. Beyonce Holiday Wrapping Paper
It’d be criminal to not get this for the Queen Bey fan in your life. Really, it’s the only thing worthy of the Lemonade vinyl you already bought them. And who knows, it could encourage them to act a little nicer than usual…
Buy It ($20 for a set of 5 sheets)
2. Fa La La Wrapping Paper Roll
FYI, the first time you hear “Deck the Halls” is also the moment the holidays have officially begun. No debate. Also, don’t be surprised if your mom breaks into song the second she catches a glimpse of this pink and red wrapping paper.
3. American Greetings Christmas Foil Reversible Wrapping Paper
Why spring for a standard roll when you can have reversible wrapping paper instead? This black and gold paper can be mixed and matched (with festive prints like trees, reindeers, plaid or polka dots) so you spread all eight of these patterns across your family and friends.

Buy It ($20 for a set of 5 sheets)
6. Furoshiki Holiday Wrapping Cloth
We know you’ve thought about being more eco-friendly this holiday season. Luckily, the Japanese tradition of using a cloth (usually silk, cotton or rayon) to carry, gift and protect items is a great sustainable and reusable option for gift-giving. While there’s no ripping open presents when this furoshiki is involved, it does come in four fun patterns that will turn these cloths into an additional gift they didn’t even see coming.
