Gifts
A gift remembers its wrapping. A well-made bow does the work of a card, and costs less than another sheet of paper.
Gift wrapping is 15 mm territory. That width works on a shoebox, a book, a bottle, a small parcel. Satin 15 mm black (ref. 80245) and satin 15 mm red (ref. 80250) cost 11.90 € per 100 m, a little under 12 cents a metre: enough to tie a hundred parcels without thinking about it.
For large cartons and hampers, 25 mm and 40 mm take over, with a curl for volume. For volume work, the ready-made bow is the honest answer: 0.39 € each in 2 cm (ref. 80101), 0.59 € in 3 cm (ref. 80112), 0.95 € in 5 cm (ref. 80117), with packs of 10, 25 and 50 that bring the unit price down.

For a 30 x 20 x 10 cm box, count 1.10 m of 15 mm satin: the full turn, twice the width, then 40 cm for the knot.

Paper ribbon (ref. BR6852.07, 16 € for 200 m) ties in a flat knot and matches kraft better than satin, with no loop.

A self-adhesive bow goes on the ribbon crossing, never on bare paper: at unwrapping time it would tear the wrap.
