After all your Christmas shopping is done for Mom, your bestie, and everyone else on your list, you need to carve out some time to wrap all those gifts. It's the perfect time to bake your favorite holiday cookies, put on a Christmas movie, and prepare to wrap gifts for hours. But first, you have to be armed with the right paper! And finding that can be a challenge. There are many options online, including rolls, sheets, and even fabric, and it can be overwhelming to choose the right paper. Lucky for you, we've curated a list of the ten best wrapping papers you can buy online for every style.
We looked for wrapping paper that wasn't just chic, but that customers raved about. We have bundles, sheets, and even peel-and-stick wallpaper that can double as wrapping paper on our list. There's also reusable fabric, so your wrapping paper can last beyond Christmas day. And if you're looking for some visual inspiration to wrap your gifts, check out our gift-wrapping tutorial. Your presents will look so good your recipients might feel guilty unwrapping them (just a little).
You can use this wrapping paper well past Christmas day because kraft paper is super durable (and its often sustainably made!). If you have any leftovers, use them as a runner or tablecloth and allow the kids to color in the reindeer and leaves!
If you want your wrapping paper to work double duty, consider reversible paper, and you can double your options. Each sheet is a metallic mix of gold and blue and can also be used to celebrate Hannukkah.
Silver and gold never go out of style, especially during the holiday season. Think about pairing this wrapping paper with white or black ribbons for a high-contrast look. Bonus: The paper has a grid on the back to guide cutting.
"The weight quality of the paper is nice and thick so it does not tear around package edges," notes a five-star review.
Wrap a gift in something unexpected with a nature-inspired motif for wrapping paper. And if it's too non-traditional for your taste, add a metallic ribbon and some evergreen twigs on top for a holiday feel.
It looks like Santa Claus needs to get ready for the big day with some sun salutations and a triangle pose. Make someone special laugh with yogi-inspired Christmas wrapping paper.
The iconic black and white checkered pattern from Mackenzie Childs can be used all year round. But you can add a little something special to your Christmas tree with this wrapping paper. Be sure to add some festive bows in plaid for pattern play.
At Minted, the wrapping paper is designed by artists. Make sure you gift this wrapping paper to someone who appreciates the detail since each sheet is a work of art. Plus, if the package is opened carefully, the paper could be flattened and re-framed for a wall gallery in the future.
If you have leftover peel-and-stick wallpaper, give it a second life as wrapping paper. Or you can choose from artists' designs at Spoonflower and order a few sheets for a special gift. But remember, don't remove the sticky side from the wallpaper.
Tartan plaid is the classic pattern for Christmas. It looks effortlessly chic underneath the Christmas tree, and the plaid pattern can work with different holiday decor styles. The jumbo-size pack comes with four rolls of paper and grid lines to easily wrap your gifts.
Substitute paper for fabric when you wrap your gifts this year. The process is a Nordic update to the traditional process from Japan called Furoshiki. To make the gift extra special, you can also hand-paint a pattern on the fabric, and your bestie will treasure it forever.

How can you tell if wrapping paper is good quality?
House Beautiful
If the wrapping paper becomes flimsy and rips when you try to wrap it around the corners of a gift, it means you need something more durable. Look for phrases like kraft paper, heavy-duty, or FSC-certified paper when you shop online.
