This lacy watermark tissue is some of my favourite to use for wrapping. It's made from rayon fibres (yes, the same rayon that clothing is made from!), making it surprisingly stronger and more durable than standard tissue paper. Watermark tissue doesn't tear easily, meaning it's good for wrapping awkward-shaped presents. You can iron it on low heat to completely remove any creases or wrinkles so you can reuse a sheet over and over again. 💕 Find this paper in the Snowflakes + Bunnytails coordinated gift-wrapping kit that's currently available in my shop.

These delightfully fluffy poofs of feathers are actually gift toppers. They're adhesive on the back, so you can easily stick them atop a present in place of a bow. So fun! 💕 You can find them in the Snowflakes + Bunnytails coordinated gift-wrapping kit that's currently available in my shop. Click the link in my bio to buy!⠀
