For those who are finished decorating their prelit Christmas trees, one of the questions that they often have is whether they should match their wrapping paper to the tree theme? This is just one way that you can bring the entire theme of your prelit Christmas trees together in your home. So, is this something that you want to do this year?
The Benefits of Matching Your Wrapping Paper to Your Prelit Christmas Tree
The benefits of matching your paper to the theme of your prelit Christmas trees include:
– Makes the entire theme come to life since everything is matching from the boxes under the tree to the topper that you use
– Will look amazing when they are under the tree since the theme is the same
– Can make it easier when you are wrapping since you have all the same paper to use for your gifts
These are all great reasons to use the wrapping paper that match your tree theme. However, depending upon the theme that you choose, you are going to find that it could be hard to find the type of wrapping paper that matches. If that is the issue, then you are going to want to find a dominant color in your theme and let the wrapping paper match the color of this. You will find it much easier to match the dominant color of the theme than finding the paper that matches perfectly.
For those who have used a theme that is super fun and out there, you may find that matching your paper is the last thing that you want to do. Instead, opt for wrapping paper that is going to be fitting with this fun theme. For example, if you have a theme that uses pink and blue ornaments, then opt for wrapping paper that has both of these colors or even a color that is completely opposite of what you are hanging on the tree.
If you are not comfortable with matching your wrapping paper to your tree, then just go with the paper that you love. There is nothing that states that you have to match both of these elements. You can simply go with a paper that you find beautiful. The purpose of the season is to have joy in what you are giving to those who mean something to you. Don’t get caught up in the paper itself, just find something that you like and will be proud to wrap your gifts in!
