Reviews
"I savored every page of The Soul of Gift Wrapping . In this moving and gorgeous book, Megumi Lorna Inouye shares ideas and instructions for wrapping gifts and expressing appreciation of others in more beautiful and sustainable ways. I came away feeling inspired to live more intentionally, connect more deeply with the world around me, and give more freely from my own heart."-- Karen Olson, editor in chief of American Craft, "If Marie Kondo inspired you to change the way you fold T-shirts, then artist Megumi Lorna Inouye's guide to wrapping gifts is for you. Inouye traces her passion for this art to memories of watching her mother lovingly wrap garments in her kimono chest. In Japan, we learn, wrapping is a way to show respect, gratitude and love. With a focus on sustainability, Inouye provides step-by-step instructions for wrapping, often making use of recycled materials or natural objects: Even a broken, moss-covered branch can add beauty to a gift. The photographs here are as elegant as the text, and useful too. More than a how-to guide: This gorgeous book is a reminder that gift giving can bring the givers themselves joy."-- BookPage, "A mindful option that takes back the commercialism in gift giving and makes it a personal experience again. These ideas will fit everyone's budget, and the book is sure to be a joyful experience."-- Library Journal

Synopsis
With a combination of inventive wrapping designs, inspiring personal essays, and step-by-step techniques, Megumi Inouye invites readers to transform the act of wrapping into a gratitude practice. "If Marie Kondo inspired you to change the way you fold T-shirts, then artist Megumi Lorna Inouye's guide to creating beautiful gift-wrapping is for you."-- BookPage , starred review Drawing on the gift-giving traditions of her Japanese heritage, Inouye explores how the act of giving a thoughtfully wrapped gift can be a creative, caring act for both the giver and the receiver. Using recycled and repurposed materials, Inouye's approach inspires readers to think intentionally about the presentation of every gift, whether it's a tip for an unseen hotel housekeeper, a simple gift of fresh fruit for a neighbor, or a special birthday gift for a beloved family member. Detailed step-by-step photos teach Inouye's artful approach to every aspect of wrapping--including tape-free folding, paper and fabric bows, clever message tags, and one-of-a-kind approaches for odd-shaped items--and guide readers in creating their own unique gift presentations.
