You’ve gotten your presents, and checked your list twice, but next comes the oft-forgotten tough part: how should you gift wrap them?
The giving of a gift is certainly loving, but the package it comes in can sometimes have an even more meaningful impact. Want to wow this Christmas? Whether you're wrapping a gift for the trendy Type Three or the sophisticated Type One, we've got you covered! Check out our list of best wrapping ideas for each Enneagram!
ENNEAGRAM 1
Go for black, navy and gold. No one appreciates the precision and symmetry of this gift wrap quite like an Enneagram 1. An elegant look, wrap each gift with various patterns but within your color palette to make the just-right coordinated gifts under the tree. Add gold wire ribbon to ensure a beautiful bow stays perfectly in place, and finish it off with a matching gold gift tag.
ENNEAGRAM 2
Stick with neutral, light colors with a pattern and a box with a lid. Both thoughtful and classic under the tree, but helps the gifts feel unique, which is the perfect option for Enneagram 2s. Add an easy ribbon bow (because we know they’re already helping everyone else untie theirs), and a hand-written note for that special touch that shows you care.
ENNEAGRAM 3
Go with gift bags and trendy tissue paper. Who’s got time to unwrap gifts? Not the Enneagram 3! Instead, your gift says you knew exactly what they wanted and how. But don’t forget the trendy tissue paper for a complete and efficient presentation so they can have their moment to shine.
ENNEAGRAM 4
Kraft paper and brush markers. The most unique of the bunch, in a season that can be filled with the cliche, it’s important to be mindful of Enneagram 4s. Hand-made, one-of-a-kind gift wrap that matches their personality will be sure to win (drawing a winter nature scene would be perfect!). Add a pop of texture with cotton ribbon for the final touch.
ENNEAGRAM 5
Matching wrapping of what they love. Enneagram 5s are masters at what they know and love, so choosing wrapping of their favorites will set you up for success. Fandom paper, matching ribbon and character tags are a must, and they’ll remember it forever!
ENNEAGRAM 6
Classic plaid and jute twine. Traditional is the key word for Enneagram 6 when it comes to Christmas, so they don’t ever have to think about what’s the “now” look or not. Simple is best, so that the only thing their inner committee will have to decide is which to open first.
ENNEAGRAM 7
Glitter and interesting accessories. One word that describes the Enneagram 7 is also the same for the wrapping best suited for them: SPARKLE! Whether it’s Christmas gold or rich purple, pink or even rainbow, they’ll love something that stands out as much as them. Instead of a bow, you could add a flower or even candy on their present to complete the look.
ENNEAGRAM 8
Black, white and red. Whether it’s a bag or in a box, you can’t stop this Christmas from coming in these colors, even your Enneagram 8. Bold is always better for an 8, and of course it’s better to ask forgiveness than permission, whether it’s the holiday season or not.
ENNEAGRAM 9
Vintage paper and baker’s twine. Enneagram 9s are the absolute best at staying cozy. So get them a gift that matches! Vintage-printed paper with striped twine will give them a home-for-the-holidays vibe (which is their favorite). Finish it off with a cinnamon stick next to the tag, and they’ll feel like they’re sitting next to the fire with you.
