However, if you want to get a little more creative and use a gift wrapping idea that is almost as special as the gift itself below are a few ideas to get you started.
Make it Into Chocolate
We dont mean literally start turning birthstone pendants into chocolate, but a unique gift giving idea is to replace one or two candies from a box of chocolates with the birthstone pendants. When she opens her box of chocolates to eat the candy she will be surprised and happy. One bonus to this gift wrapping ideas is that the chocolate box and packaging will keep the birthstone pendants safe.
Wrap it in Some Fabric
In traditional Japanese culture its a common practice to wrap a gift in a beautifully printed piece of fabric that can then be reused by the recipient. You can use this idea as inspiration by wrapping the jewelry box with a pendent inside in a special fabric that you picked out just for her. This works really well for a woman who collects fabric or sews, and they can later use the fabric gift wrapping to make something else.
Use a Pendant as a Trinket
If you plan to give another larger gift along with her birthstone pendants try incorporating the pendants into the packaging of your gift wrap. Tie a pendant or two onto the bow or attach it to the gift tag. Just be careful when you are attaching the pendant to make sure that it is secure and that it wont easily fall off and get lost.
Fake Her Out
Lastly, a classic way to wrap small gifts such as birthstone pendants is to place the smaller jewelry box into a much larger box so that she will have no idea what is inside. Add some heavy rocks to make the whole thing weight more than it really does, and she will end up being pleasantly surprised when the big box that she thought was her present turns out to only be a larger packaging for the smaller jewelry box with her real present.
