Frequently Asked Questions
How much wrapping paper do I need?
Cut a sheet 2× (width + depth) wide and 2× (height + depth) + 4 cm tall. Our calculator does this automatically and rounds up to the nearest Evara roll with a 15% waste buffer.
How much ribbon do I need for a gift?
The Ribbon Planner calculates 2× (width + length + 2× height) plus a bow allowance (30–80 cm) and a 10 cm tail. It also recommends the ideal ribbon width for your gift size.
What are the best luxury gift wrapping ideas?
Match ribbon colour to your print, use wide grosgrain or velvet ribbon, finish with a wax seal, and layer two complementary prints. The Colour Palette Builder gives you a complete ready-to-shop scheme.
How many rolls do I need for Christmas?
The Christmas Planner calculates this using a two-print strategy. For 12 gifts you typically need 3 primary rolls and 2 accent rolls. Enter your gift count and aesthetic for exact numbers.
