This gift-wrapping idea involves blowing up personal photos and then printing them on regular copy paper so that people can include happy memories with their gifts. In fact, these photos may end up being better than the gift itself. Brought to us by fine folks at PhotoJoJo, the DIY Photo Wrapping Paper is as cheap and easy as it is thoughtful. PhotoJoJo provides a step-by-step guide to creating one's own customized gift wrap. To create this special wrapping paper all one needs is copy paper, a pair of scissors, tape, ribbon, print and, of course, the presents to wrap. Although people might be tempted to use photo quality paper, it will make the wrapping process much more challenging. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 23% | Activity: 17% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [DIY](https://www.trendhunter.com/diy) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **DIY Personalized Wrapping Paper:** Creating personalized wrapping paper is a trend that offers opportunities to innovate on the paper products and printing industries by offering unique and customizable wrapping paper options. - **Thoughtful Gifting:** There is a trend towards thoughtful gifting that offers opportunities to innovate on the gifting and personalization industries by providing personalized gifting options. - **Photo-based Gifting:** The use of personal photos in gifting is a trend that offers opportunities to innovate on the photography and printing industries by creating products that allow for easy and high-quality photo printing and customization. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Printing:** Innovations in the printing industry can allow for mass personalization of wrapping paper using customer's personal photos. - **Gifting:** The gifting industry has the opportunity to create new and personal gift options by incorporating customer's personal photos and memories. - **Photography:** Innovations in the photography industry can allow for easy and high-quality printing of personal photos to be used in gifting and wrapping paper. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Eco-Friendly Wrapping Papers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dissolvable-gift-wrap.md) - [Confetti-Filled Wrapping Papers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/confetti-wrapping-paper.md) - [Parks-Themed Wrapping Paper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/parks-project-wrapping-paper.md) - [AI-Powered Gift-Wrapping Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-food-group.md) - [Festive Personalized Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/personalized-candies.md) - [Creative Gift Wrap](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clash-royale.md) - [DIY Chocolate Wrappers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diy-chocolate-wrapper.md) - [Secret Gift-Wrapping Suites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wrapping-rooms.md) - [Water-Soluble Wrapping Paper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/birthday-gift-wrap.md)
