5 Amazing Christmas Wine Packaging Ideas

There exists a special bond between Christmas and wine. Gifting wine has become more of a tradition during the holidays. Some use it to kick start a party, while others use it exclusively to wash down the rich food that is prepared during this festive period. Either way, wine does form an important component of the celebrations. 

The wine manufacturers already come up with beautiful designs for the packaging of their products. But they would all be the same for that particular product. If you want to make an impression with you packaging and “presentation” skills, then you need to put on your thinking cap and come up with creative ways to pack the bottle. Don’t just resort to wine boxes as it would be a bit bland, unless you plan on decorating the box and coming out with something new.

Here are some wine packaging ideas that should help you get started if you have not yet come up with an idea of your own. In case you have already thought about a design, then these ideas should give you more directions to consider. 

Santa’s Helpers!

This may be a good option for those who simply don’t have enough time for packing the bottles in a grand way. Just use some cotton for the beard, a piece of rubber or rolled up cotton for the nose, and a small coloured hat. It is not too difficult to create. 

This will make anyone’s day as it presents the bottle without much packaging so all you need to do is to “rip off the heads”, open the bottle and start drinking!

Wrapped Up!

Now this packaging isn’t very complex to pull off (as you can see in the image). Take any wine bottle, wrap it in covering paper and add a piece of rough cloth (use clean ones, obviously) to make a simple yet appealing presentation. By adding the name of the recipient or a personal message in the tag, you can personalize the gift even more. 

Candy Wrapper Packaging

Nothing beats the classic “candy wrapper” packaging. Just take any covering or wrapping material (cloth, paper, film), put the bottle in the centre and start converging it at the top. When you hold the ends of the wrapper together, it will appear like a candy packaging. At this point, tie up the end with a ribbon and viola – you have your very own sensational wine gift which would definitely bring back some memories. 

Corporate Gifting!

So you are the corporate guy / gal and you want to make an impression on your boss. Then get yourself an arm from an old shirt, find a tie (or buy one if you can), choose a good wine and then wrap the bottle in the arm by completely sealing the bottom. Then put the tie around the bottle’s neck and make sure the presentation looks good. Just think of it as a representation of yourself. Now ain’t that bottle looking every bit like the corporate entity that its meant to be?

Snug in Socks!

Yeah right! Socks. You read that correctly. It is possible to wrap up the bottles in old socks and tie up the end with a ribbon. Now before you get all jittery about the thought of using an old sock, remember, the socks would definitely be clean and ensured to be rid of any smell (unless you really hate the recipient and want to spoil his holiday celebrations). Jokes apart, this is a good way to present the bottle as it would not only look good but it would be easier to grip the bottle while taking it along with you.
