As the holidays are fast approaching, Ilovehandles offers the perfect gift packaging product — origami wrapping paper. The innovative idea is simple, engaging and instills a wonderful sense of whimsicality. Each sheet comes with printed instructions that guide individuals as they create their own Japanese-inspired visual art.
The Portland-based design studio boasts six different version of its origami wrapping paper — a crane, a dog, an iris, a frog, a balloon and a fish. Gifts can be carefully opened and their thin vessel can be folded to create an angular object — a great decor piece.
Ilovehandles' contribution does not only omit the need to clean up a mess afterward, but it also answers to principles of sustainability.
