According to the Wikipedia The history of gift giving can be traced back to about the Romans. On the first day of January, around the Winter Solace, people gave each other gifts during a celebration. The gifts were originally evergreen branches, and later developed into cakes, to symbolize prosperity and sweetness in the coming year.

Over the years Gift Packaging become more and more involved and researched for maximum effect. Covering gifts creates excitement and suspense. Originally gifs was covered in fabric and then brown paper was used. Gift Wrap became popular because of the versatile use of paper. Just about any shape can be covered.

Gift Boxes was introduced for a firmer and neater look. Over the Christmas period lots of families travel to either holiday or family destinations. It became easier to transport gifts in Gift Boxes. Ribbons and Raffia can be used to decorate Gift Boxes in such a way that you can achieve almost any look or theme.

Gift Boxes are preferred by Corporate Companies especially having their logos printed on or using custom made Ribbons to decorate their Gift Boxes with. Add Custom made Tissue Paper to the inside of Gift Boxes to cushion a fragile gift, add some colour, or just to add some spice to the Gift Packaging. When planning your Gift Packaging it is best to consider the receiver of the gift.

Events and promotional drives use Gift Bags with success. Gift Bags can be bought in different sizes and colours. In the event you have specific size and specifications we can have them made up. You can print your company logo on Gift Bags or you can use your own designer paper to have them made up with.

Organza Gift Bags are synonym to weddings and ladies functions. They add a feminine touch to your gifts and create a romantic look. Organza bags can be found in different sizes and just about any colour. They can be decorated with dots to create your own personal touch. Satin ribbons can be added in order to match your colour scheme.

Corrugated Gift Boxes have an earthy look and work well with African arts and crafts. They can be made up in natural corrugated board or standard colours. Corrugated board is manufactured by using recycled paper and are bio degradable. Thus making it excellent for the green conscious users.

My favorite is Aluminium Tins. They have so many uses and are durable. Printed can be done on Aluminium Tins for branding purposes. Using tins instead of discarded Gift Wrap your customer will remember you a lot longer. Aluminium tins can be reused for odds and ends around the house.
