Anyone seen some nice wrapping paper?

[JumperandJacket]

I’m looking for some- ideally long rolls, fairly traditional (not cartoonish). Any recommendations? I had some in my JL basket but sadly they all sold out before I could check out.

Primark! Brown paper with mini green trees. Usually I wrap in brown paper but these rolls looked just the part.

Waitrose had some lovely navy blue with stars thing last year which I bought because it was quite Christmassy but could be used for birthdays etc. 2m rolls. Also similar - to @Dutchesss they ( Waitrose ) had brown paper with Christmas trees on . I know Waitrose & JL are the same thing but may be worth a look ? I will never get over the Tesco glittery reindeer paper - very pretty but I was hoovering it up for the best part of a year.

Next and Paperchase

B&M and Matalan have some gorgeous tonal sets. Excellent quality.

I went into my local TK Maxx and they some lovely wrapping paper. Very long rolls and I think £5.99 for 10m but they are super long so more paper. Not sure if they are on the website but popping in if you have a TK near you. The paper is thick and has lines on the back too. I was really pleased with them (pink for my DD's santa presents)

I am increasingly using reusable fabric gift bags for Christmas presents. We have got quite a few for free from when we've received wrapped gifts via Amazon but you can buy a big variety on e.g. etsy.

M&S had 14m rolls of plastic free paper for £6

The ones I got from TK are on the website:

There are also a few other nice ones too!

WH Smith have some lovely recyclable stuff but not the cheapest. I lucked out and got last years range for 25p a roll in store a few weeks ago!

Not to everybody’s taste but M&S have Percy pig wrap in store, thought it would be rather fun for the children.

I got some from primark last week, one set is brown with a repeat of a car with Christmas tree tied on. And the other is a lovely green with gingerbread men.

I wrapped works secret Santa in the glittery reindeer stuff 🤣 the whole office sparkled for months 🙈

Thanks so much, everyone- will have a google of these suggestions.

i always think paperchase have a nice selection

I was in Wilkinson’s today and they were starting to put the Christmas bits out. I spied some nice traditional looking paper on their trolley.

I have got on well with Aldi and Lidl paper in the past. Always have plastic free available and it usually has a nice grid on the back for cutting out. It won't turn up till at least November though!

The primark wrapping papers - how many metres are they? Many thanks x

@Xmasfairy86 - you feel my pain, & I yours - I honestly think I was finding glittery bits until the next Christmas. It was pretty at the time of wrapping though -

Next has a lovely navy/red set which is quite nostalgic and a brown/green which is very woodland. B&M also have a really nice woodland range

Next is also 3 4 2 on the sets

Tk maxx have a lovely selection in store at the moment, but designs will obviously be store dependent but lovely long, quality paper in a variety of designs. They definitely had some traditional

RSBP website 10m for £7 and free shipping till 20th Oct if you spend over a tenner. Recycled and recyclable.

@BlueChampagne that rspb ones are lovely!

Our local market has a gift card & wrap stall with the real traditional stuff - 7 sheets for £1.

I have the primark brown paper one with green trees !! Going to buy green ribbon from local haberdashery.
It looks really simple and elegant.
