Designer and stylist Sabrina Linn gives tips on how to make your Christmas presents really stand out this year.

“Dress up your gifts as you would a holiday outfit, with glamorous accessories. Choose one type of paper, even a basic one (the less traditional the better!), and then doll it up with luxurious satin-ribbon bows, bells and special gift tags like these white snowflakes from an art-supply store.”

Tip! Look for environmentally friendly options like recycled newspapers, magazines or even tea towels. This marbleized paper is made from stone and is recyclable.

Favourite holiday tradition:

“Spending Christmas Eve with my family, and then watching Little Women for the millionth time cozied up together on the couch by the tree.”
