Christmas money gifts wrapping - The best ideas

The big celebration is just around the corner and the annual question comes up again: "What should we give as a gift?" For some, the answer is easy, for others it is a real challenge. Instead of spending money on something that you are unsure whether the recipient will really like or find useful, why not give money in a very special way? Put a banknote in an envelope and put it under the Christmas tree? That is certainly not the most creative way to make someone happy at Christmas. But if the gift of money is wrapped with imagination and attention to detail, it will be a real highlight under the tree.

An artfully wrapped cash gift is not only an eye-catcher, but also a sign of your appreciation for your loved ones. It shows that you have put some thought into it and that the recipient is important to you. You may be thinking: "A cash gift and personal? That's like a voucher! I don't think that's very personal..." But you're wrong! In this article, we want to show you that Christmas cash gifts can be very personal and unique. In fact, there is often even more thought behind them than with a conventional gift. With our creative suggestions, your cash gift will shine as brightly as the Christmas tree. Give your cash gift that certain something for Christmas!

Christmas gifts with a wow factor

Photo balls as a cash gift:

With the photo balls, you can not only skilfully present your favorite pictures, but also stylishly store banknotes in them. The photos are visible from both sides, so you can place money on one side and admire the photo on the other. The balls are easy to open, which gives you the freedom to change the pictures as you wish or add other little surprises. From a minimalist style to festively decorated examples, everything is possible; for example, you can fill the balls with polystyrene balls and turn them into real snow globes. As a further option, you can also add sweets, for example. To give as a gift, simply place the balls in a bowl and decorate them with fir branches and other balls. This creates a gift that immediately shows how much effort and thought went into them.

For craft professionals:

Cookie jar

This is what you need:

• Large cookie jar with lid
• Banknotes for folding stars
• small branches from the forest
• Artificial snow or sand
• Styrofoam as a basis for the sign
• Paper to cut out the signs for the signpost(s)
• Decorations such as mini Christmas trees, stones, small figures, gift ribbon and decorative sand
• Hot glue or superglue

Fill the cookie jar with decorative sand and arrange your mini Christmas trees and figures in it. Design your signposts and use hot glue or superglue to stick them to a straw or branch. Attach the straw with the signs to one of the stones so that your signpost stands firmly in the sand. Tip: We recommend Styrofoam because it is light and stable. Finally, fold stars out of the banknotes and place them in the cookie jar. You can find folding instructions here .

Your individual cash gift for Christmas is now ready. Have fun making it!

Money gifts made of wood:

As a child, the wish list for Santa Claus or the Christ Child is usually endless. But as an adult, you are often most happy to receive a cash gift to fulfill a long-held dream. With our charming cash gifts for Christmas, your Christmas present will be truly unique! Simple, practical, classy and stylish, you can give a high-quality and special Christmas cash gift with our cash gift that is anything but boring. No banknote in an envelope can compete with that ;)

Why are wooden money gifts so unique?

As you are used to from JoliCoon, we have completely reinterpreted the concept of the Christmas gift of money and given it our unmistakable signature. Our goal is that our Christmas gift does not simply disappear in a drawer, but hangs on the Christmas tree as a decorative element and reminds you of wonderful shared moments. With our festive gift of money, you are not only giving away banknotes, but also expressing your love, appreciation and good wishes in an elegant and tasteful way.

Includes luxurious gift box

Our stylish red hardcover magnet box is designed in such a way that it doesn't immediately reveal that it contains a cash gift. This increases the excitement and anticipation. The cash gift itself, which consists of five carefully glued layers of wood, is embedded in hard foam so that it arrives safely at the recipient even by post. With our festive cash gift, you are not only sending a few bills, but also showing that you have put some thought into the packaging and handover.

A Christmas card as a cash gift

You would like to send the Christmas gift of money by post, but preferably in a compact envelope rather than as a package with a gift box, and are therefore looking for a suitable Christmas card?

Elegant Christmas cards are not only a great option for keeping a few bills with the card on Christmas Eve, but they also ensure beaming faces when the recipients read your carefully chosen words and wishes in the elegant card.

With our high-quality paper and the manufacturing process, which involves a lot of manual work, it is clear in every card that we simply love paper and want to make something very special for you. We love paying attention to the details that make the difference between good and excellent, so that we can offer you the highest quality cards for all occasions.

To create a sense of anticipation and excitement when your card is handed over, you can seal the enclosed envelope, which fits the card perfectly, with a self-adhesive wax seal. In keeping with the Christmas style, the wax seal is embossed to match the Christmas theme.

A few tips to finish:

Add a personal touch

The decision to give a cash gift doesn't necessarily mean that you have to forego a card. A few kind words or a suitable Christmas saying make the gift even more personal. You can either leave space for this on the back of the wooden gift or you can give it away together with a Christmas card, which gives you even more space for your words.

Personal pictures

You can implement our packaging ideas directly or use them as inspiration for your own creations. In the end, what counts is that the Christmas gift of money is more than just a financial gift - it becomes a special, personal gesture when you highlight your relationship with the recipient.

And the best thing at the end: the lovely packaging remains as a memory, even when the money has already been spent! You can personalize the Christmas packaging with festive sayings or photos from the past year - the choice is entirely yours. Wrap money gifts in a Christmassy way and give away shared memories.
