The book is full of ideas and inspirational photographs that will fire anyone's imagination. Whether its exploring the possibilities of recycling newsprint, corrugated paper, or string, or inspiring the reader to find new and exciting combinations of shop-bought papers and ribbons, Caroline Birkett has suggestions galore. One whole chapter gives detailed instructions for making individual boxes and bags to accommodate awkward shapes; another is devoted to providing solutions for really tricky wrapping problems; yet a third is filled with advice and suggestions for finishing touches, from tags to tassels and paper flowers. Step-by-step photography ensures every project is easy to follow, with mouthwatering pictures of the finished wrapping.
