<p>Often the fastest way to grow a maker&#8217;s business is by adding a new category — ;and if your game is stationery, giftwrap may be your best bet! Erin Sarpa of <a href="https://www.stationeryhq.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="https://www.stationeryhq.com/">StationeryHQ.com</a> tells me that their gift wrap sheets are their fastest growing product, as many of her clients have found it to be a &#8220;gamechanger&#8221; for their brands. &#8220;If someone loves your card designs, why wouldn&#8217;t they also love your exclusive wrapping paper designs?&#8221; she asked. &#8220;One of our customers placed a huge order for a fun, irreverent holiday wrap, and it sold out so fast she had to place an even bigger order a few days later. ;That&#8217;s the kind of story that motivates us to keep exploring and improving.&#8221; </p>



<p>Erin pointed out that profanity on paper is still a big trend, but you still can&#8217;t find it in big boxes. &#8220;That&#8217;s clearly an emerging market and we&#8217;re here for it,&#8221; she laughed.</p>



<p>Olga Krigman from <a href="https://offensivedelightful.myshopify.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="https://www.oplusd.com/">Offensive+Delightful</a> — ;who is famed industry-wide for her potty mouth — ;agrees, as you can see below. &#8220;The timing for adding wrapping paper to my collection could not have been better. Working on these patterns during a fucking pandemic is just what I needed to get energized, and once I started working on the designs, I was totally inspired.&#8221; </p>

<p>&#8220;And honestly, the ability to collaborate with StationeryHQ and only print sheets as I sell them made the decision a no brainer,&#8221; she finished. &#8220;They will drop ship my orders to my customers directly so I can grow my revenue without taking a ton of time to get orders out or having to buy and inventory a bunch of product. I&#8217;m excited to see which designs really speak to people.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Offering wrapping paper has been a game changer for our business,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Not only has it allowed us to showcase our prints in a dimensional way, it’s been so delightful to see all the clever ways our customers are using the wrapping sheets, from wedding stationery to drawer liners to bespoke packaging.&#8221;</p>

<p>And not just stationery makers are finding success here; <a href="http://rabeccky.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="http://rabeccky.com/">Rebecca Smith</a> is a digital illustrator + designer, working in a variety of subjects, including food + beverage, weddings, and various consumer products. &#8220;I had been searching the interwebs day and night for a solution to small-batch gift wrap printing when SHQ showed up to save the day!&#8221; she detailed. &#8220;They print by day, and fight design crime by night. And besides stellar quality printing, the gift wrap is so strong it could double as a windsail, though I prefer to wrap packages with it. I will most definitely re-order!&#8221;</p>

<p>Watercolorist Jessica Flores of Jessica Flores Design is another happy client who tried out giftwrap for the winter holidays. &#8220;My customers were crazy about it, and I had to place a second order because the first sold out so quickly,&#8221; she described. &#8220;This was my first purchase with Stationery HQ, and I was impressed with the print and silky, heavy paper quality. I&#8217;ve already come back for Valentine postcards!&#8221;</p><div class="inline-post clearfix"><div class="see-also byline">See also</div><div id="block-wrap-81091" class="block-wrap-native block-wrap block-wrap-23 block-css-81091 block-wrap-classic columns__m--1 elements-design-3 block-ani block-skin-0 tipi-box block-wrap-thumbnail ppl-m-1 clearfix" data-id="81091" data-base="0"><div class="tipi-row-inner-style clearfix"><div class="tipi-row-inner-box contents sticky--wrap"><div class="block block-23 clearfix"><article class="tipi-xs-12 clearfix with-fi ani-base tipi-xs-typo split-1 split-design-1 loop-0 preview-thumbnail preview-23 elements-design-3 post-10016161 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-favorites category-papernerd-at-large tag-atlanta-makret tag-daniel-richards-showroom tag-design tag-greeting-cards tag-j-falkner-cards tag-jason-arbuckly tag-maxine-dellacorte tag-palm-beach tag-ricky-martin tag-sarah-schwartz tag-stationery tag-stationery-blog tag-stationery-design tag-stationery-designer tag-thank-you-stationery tag-the-paper-nerd" style="--animation-order:0"><div class="preview-mini-wrap clearfix"><div class="mask"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/palm-royale-x-j-falkner/" class="mask-img"><img width="100" height="100" src="https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=100%2C100&;ssl=1" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=100%2C100&;ssl=1 100w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=120%2C120&;ssl=1 120w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=275%2C275&;ssl=1 275w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=372%2C372&;ssl=1 372w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=567%2C567&;ssl=1 567w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=882%2C882&;ssl=1 882w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=24%2C24&;ssl=1 24w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=48%2C48&;ssl=1 48w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=96%2C96&;ssl=1 96w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=150%2C150&;ssl=1 150w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=300%2C300&;ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?resize=50%2C50&;ssl=1 50w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/JF-PR-Bow.jpg?zoom=2&;resize=100%2C100&;ssl=1 200w" sizes="(max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" /></a></div><div class="meta"><div class="byline byline-2 byline-cats-design-4"><div class="byline-part cats"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/category/favorites/" style="color:#b79b0d" class="cat">Favorites</a><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/category/papernerd-at-large/" style="color:#b79b0d" class="cat">Papernerd At Large</a></div></div><div class="title-wrap"><h3 class="title"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/palm-royale-x-j-falkner/">Palm Royale meets J.Falkner</a></h3></div><div class="byline byline-3"><span class="byline-part date"><i class="tipi-i-calendar" aria-hidden="true"></i> <time class="entry-date published dateCreated flipboard-date" datetime="2024-07-11T13:49:49+00:00">July 11, 2024</time></span><span class="byline-part likes-count"><a href="#" class="tipi-like-count " data-pid="10016161"><span class="likes-heart"><i class="tipi-i-heart-o" aria-hidden="true"></i><i class="tipi-i-heart" aria-hidden="true"></i></span><span class="tipi-value">0</span></a></span></div></div></div></article></div></div></div></div></div></tipimidc>

<p>The true fun of this product is that it can adapt to so many aesthetics, like colorful yet natural finds from <a href="https://www.jengerenadesign.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="https://www.jengerenadesign.com/">Jen Gerena Design</a>. &#8220;I am a self-diagnosed paper-goods hoarder,&#8221; she described. &#8220;I love that I design wrapping paper, cards and prints using my original illustrations that others love just as much as I do!&#8221;</p>

<p>Rounding out this rundown of wrap stars is <a href="https://www.shavspaper.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="https://www.shavspaper.com/">ShavsPaper</a>, &#8220;I have always been a visual and creative person, and my love language is gifts so it makes sense that I have always loved wrapping presents,&#8221; said the creator of the three very smart designs below. &#8220;After years of nannying and doing side hustles for pennies, I decided that I would turn my artwork and hobbies into wrapping paper, and the rest is history. My customers love that I make things that are pop culture related and of the moment. It&#8217;s fun to wrap your presents with a bit of personality! That&#8217;s what we are all about. Giving gifts should be fun!&#8221;</p>
