John Derian Wrapping Paper & Gift Tags Review

For beautifully wrapped presents! This is John Derian Wrapping Paper & Gift Tags. It features twelve sheets of stunning wrapping paper and twelve matching gift tags in a handy book format. This assortment of images has been handpicked from Derian's outstanding collection of old and rare books. Samples of all twelve designs are shown on the cover. I adore the selection. It includes shells, coral, a wave pattern, ship and more. The range of patterns is suited to a variety of occasions. The back of the wrapping paper and gift tags is white. All tags have a small round hole punched for attaching a ribbon, twine etc. The paper is folded into four when it is in the book. To remove simply crease along perforated line, then tear. Each sheet unfolds to a generous 18 7/8 x 25 3/4". Press-out gift tags measure 2 x 3.5". This paper is of the highest quality. I love it's matte finish. It's a thicker gift wrap making it hard to tear. It feels substantial yet is easy to fold. A present wrapped in this impressive paper will cause a rush of excitement to the person who receives it. It's the perfect wrap to keep on hand. You may even use it for something else entirely. There are all kinds of clever ways to use wrapping paper creatively. See sample sheets below. Artisan Books released this book on October 5, 2021. Get your copy below!

I love how my gifts look wrapped in the John Derian paper. I like the contrast of the crisp shell print versus the dreamy wave pattern. The paper was easy to remove from the book. It came out cleanly. It did not tear while I was wrapping my gifts and you cannot see through it. The tape stuck firmly to the paper. 

 This is the sea shell patterned gift wrap. I added some natural colored raffia. 

This is the abstract wave patterned gift wrap. I added a blue ribbon.
