Custom Gift Wrap for Books: How to Choose and Order It

Start with the book, then choose your roll

Custom gift wrap for books works best when you match the roll to the size and number of books you plan to wrap. Plum Print turns your child's art and photos into a roll of wrapping paper, so the first step is deciding which masterpiece should appear on the paper. A single bold drawing reads clearly on a small book; a collage or photo may need a larger roll to avoid awkward cropping.

The supplied product comes in two sizes: 7 ft and 17.75 ft. The shorter roll suits one or two books or a test wrap before a larger project. The longer roll gives you more room for multiple gifts, larger books, or a pattern that needs to repeat cleanly. Neither size is confirmed to include a cutter or tape, so plan your wrapping tools separately.

Roll sizes at a glance

• Custom Gift Wrap: Custom Gift Wrap is available in 7 ft and 17.75 ft rolls. Roll length determines how many books you can wrap and how much room you have to position the artwork.

  

• Custom Gift Wrap: The catalog price is USD 12.50, with a comparison price of USD 25.00. The price difference between roll sizes is not supplied, so compare the listed price for the size you choose rather than assuming a per-foot rate.

How to order custom gift wrap for books

1. Pick the artwork: Choose a drawing or photo that will still be recognizable when printed on a repeating roll. Simple shapes and strong contrast tend to survive wrapping better than faint pencil lines.
2. Choose the roll size: Select 7 ft for a small batch of books or a trial run. Choose 17.75 ft when you are wrapping several books or want extra paper for mistakes and overlap.
3. Check the preview before you commit: Look at how the artwork sits on the roll. The supplied information does not describe a proofing step, so if a preview is offered, use it to catch cropping or upside-down images before ordering.
4. Wrap with the book's cover in mind: Place the most important part of the artwork on the front face of the wrapped book. Avoid folding a face or a signature across a sharp corner where it may distort.

Personalized book wrapping paper: what to check before you wrap

Gift wrap for photo books has one extra job: it should protect the book without hiding what makes it personal. Crease the paper along the spine edge before folding so the cover does not bow. Use double-sided tape or a glue dot at the seam rather than heavy tape across the printed artwork, which can tear the paper when removed.

The supplied record does not list care instructions, material weight, or whether the paper is recyclable. Treat those as open questions and test a small offcut first if you are wrapping a book you plan to keep. If the paper feels thin, add a plain inner layer for structure rather than wrapping the book twice in the printed paper.

Which roll size fits your book project?

• 7 ft roll: Best for one or two standard books, a single photo book, or a first order to see how the artwork prints. Less paper to store and less waste if you are experimenting.
• 17.75 ft roll: Better for a stack of books, oversized photo books, or wrapping several gifts with the same design. More paper means more chances to align the pattern and recover from a bad cut.

When custom wrap is the right choice for a book gift

Custom wrapping paper for gifts makes the most sense when the book itself is already personal, such as a photo book or a custom art book. The wrap extends the same artwork to the outside of the gift, so the recipient sees the child's work before the book is even opened. It is less useful for a generic bookstore purchase where the wrap would compete with the gift rather than complement it.

Order the wrap at the same time as the book when possible. That way you can match the artwork and avoid wrapping a book in paper that features a different drawing. If you are unsure which drawing to use, pick the one that appears on the book cover or a simple detail from it.

Product facts that affect your order

• Custom Gift Wrap: The product description suggests putting your child's prized masterpiece on every gift under the tree. It frames the wrap as a gift-wide solution, which helps you decide whether one roll is enough for all the books you plan to wrap.
