Blogmas #5: GIFT WRAPPING IDEAS *** ZAVIJANJE DARIL

 

Now that we've gone through my gift guides, I wanted to show you some ideas how to wrap your presents so they look especially nice under the Christmas tree. Naturally, my ideas are only examples of what you can do with a little imagination and a few inexpensive trinkets.

Sedaj, ko sva se sprehodili čez moje ideje za obdarovanje tebi dragih ljudi, ti predstavljam še nekaj idej, kako ta darila zaviti, da bodo pod smrečico izgledala še posebej lepo. Seveda so te moje ideje le nekaj primerov, kaj vse lahko storiš z malo domišljije in nekaj poceni dodatkov. 

The key item you'll need to create such gifts is a hot glue gun. I bought mine (brand Pattex) at a local hardware store and paid about 20 € for it. It also came with four glue inserts. You can get such a gun in every craft store (where you can also buy all the extras) and hardware stores in your country.

Ključna stvar, ki jo boš potrebovala za ustvarjanje takšnih daril, je pištola za vroče lepljenje. Sama sem svojo znamke Pattex kupila v Merkurju in zanjo plačala približno 20 €, pri čemer sem zraven dobila še štiri vložke z lepilom. Dobiš jo tudi v vsaki trgovini z materialom za ustvarjanje (kot je npr. Rayher, kjer sem sama kupila tudi večino dodatkov) ter v vseh tehničnih trgovinah. 

When I'm shopping for the trinkets and accessories, I try to think a broader picture. Sometimes I'll buy a thing not even being sure what I'll use it for and it later turns out to be a cute little accessory. One such example are the little bells you'll see in one of the examples. Personally, I prefer to use the classic brown wrapping paper because the embellishments stand out much more, but I also prepare an example with the classical colorful wrapping paper.

Ko kupujem dodatke, poskušam razmišljati široko. Včasih kupim tudi kakšno malenkost, za katero tisti trenutek ne vem, kako jo bom uporabila, potem pa se izkaže za prisrčen dodatek - tak primer so zvončki, ki sem jih uporabila v enem od primerov. Sama sem pristašica klasičnega rjavega zavijalnega papirja, saj okrasitev pride bolj do izraza, vendar pa sem ti za danes pripravila tudi en primer s klasičnim pisanim zavijalnim papirjem. 

These are some of my gift wrapping ideas. I'm sure that by now you're itching to wrap some yourself, right? Be warned - such wrapping takes quite some time so I suggest you tackle a few gifts each day during December so you don't get bored and only need a small amount of time per day.

To so moje ideje za zavijanje daril. Verjamem, da te sedaj že pošteno srbijo prsti, da tudi ti zaviješ kakšno, mar ne? Ker takšno zavijanje traja kar nekaj časa, ti predlagam, da si to nalogo prerazporediš skozi december - tako se ustvarjanja ne boš naveličala, hkrati pa boš dnevno porabila le malo časa.
