I guess we are mostly tuned to think that Gift wrappers can only be used to wrap gifts, but this gorgeous print was too beautiful to be used for just one purpose. And so we repurposed them in 3 simple ways
Luckily they come in a roll of 6 sheets and was adequate for us to try them all. I have also added links below with some of my favourite designs that are available now.
Framed Art
The quickest and the most easiest way is to use it as a framed art. Not only does this cost a fraction but you aren't committed to holding it on for a long period and can change with the season if needed. We only needed a photo frame, and cut the sheet based on the size of the frame. For renter friendly, we generally use 3m wall stickers for hanging it on the wall.
Bookshelf Styling
Next one, was a bit unconventional but turned out pretty good. I had wanted an interesting wallpaper or decal on my bookshelf, but the ones we were looking at were expensive. Also, we didn't want to spend too much time setting it up and then changing at a later point. We shopped around the home to find other options and voila we landed on the same beautiful print. Best part was, we didn't even have to cut it or stick it on the shelf itself. And that means you can re-use it anytime or simply remove it without any damage.
Coffee table styling
And finally displayed it on the coffee table for holding diyas during Diwali (festival of lights) celebration. To be honest I was running short of trays to use and this came in handy for my decoration.
Small things go a long way and I will never look at a gift wrapping paper again the same way :)
