Next time you need to wrap a package, why not make it completely personalized? It's SO easy to make custom wrapping paper and SO affordable to have it produced! A good print shop will have a black and white "wide format" machine (that means it can print BIG sheets of paper) and will offer prints from that machine at a very affordable price (ours are $1 for a two foot by three foot sheet).
Custom Wrapping Paper in Three EASY Steps:
1) Create a design - you can use any simple program like Word, Powerpoint, Paint, or something a little fancier like Photoshop or InDesign (our personal favorite!). We recommend setting up your file at 24"x36" - that's a very standard printing size. Simple, black and white images work best.2) Save your file as a PDF if possible. Doing so makes sure your print will look exactly like your original design...no surprises!
3) Take your file to a friendly local printshop and ask for "engineering prints" or "construction prints" on "regular bond" (that's just plain ol' paper).
If you aren't sure where to start, take a look at silly fonts, clip art, simple photographs, scans of kids' drawings...literally ANYTHING can be used to create a fun pattern!
