Wrapping Favors - Help

I need to wrap my favors, as in like with wrapping paper and ribbon and the whole 9 yards...They are in like a 7X7 box and i have 120 of them so i need to buy one of those big a$$ rolls of paper. Has anyone ever ordered from a particular site? I cant tell what they look like online and I dont want 417 feet of something I hate.

Anyone else have this issue?

TIA

I ordered from papermart.com...

A tip - I had 6x6x3 boxes so I bought a foam board from Staples and made a template - the size sheet I would need to wrap the whole box. I then used doublestick tape to hold the whole roll down. I would pull out the paper, stick the template on top, then use a razor blade to cut the wrapping paper.

I cut about 150 sheets - all the same size. It made the process SO much faster. Then all I had to do was wrap.

A guy I work with had that idea - and it was awesome.

I ordered this one:



Gothic Flourish

It was nice quality and identical in color to what's on the site. Just had that shimmer to it - it wasn't flat.

I bought little rolls of tulle from the dollar store - like 10 - and tied that around. Then we hot glued the personalized favor ribbon and a flower on each box in the center of the bow .

I was looking for flowers or I saw these little hearts on a ring that you thread when you tie the bow that dangle a little , but i dont remember where i saw them...

So much work i didnt count on....

i ordered from papermart too --- make sure you look to see how big the design is. i really liked the one posted above, but we were wrapping 3x3x3' boxes and I thought a pattern that size would be overpowering

we went with this, from papermart:
