The soul of gift wrapping Creative techniques for expressing gratitude, inspired by the Japanese art of giving

Megumi Lorna Inouye

Book - 2024

"With a combination of inventive wrapping designs, inspiring personal essays, and step-by-step techniques, Megumi Inouye invites readers to transform the act of wrapping into a gratitude practice. Using recycled and repurposed materials, Inouye's approach inspires readers to think intentionally about the presentation of every gift; detailed step-by-step photos teach every aspect of wrapping-including tape-free folding, paper and fabric bows, clever message tags, and one-of-a-kind approaches for odd-shaped items"--
