Wrap It Your Way: Creative Ways to Gift a Retro51

Retro51 pens are the ultimate crowd-pleaser. Whether you’re shopping for a stationery enthusiast, a hard-to-buy-for coworker, or that one person who “has everything,” a Retro51 pen hits the sweet spot between thoughtful and practical. It’s a gift that says, “You’re awesome, and you deserve a pen to match.”

But here’s the best part—these pens have a way of creating lifelong fans. Ask many collectors, and they’ll tell you their obsession (oops, we mean collection) started with one gift. That single Retro sparked joy, and the rest is history.

So why not make your gift even more memorable with wrapping as unique as the pen inside? Whether you’re into minimalist chic, bold and quirky, or something in between, we’ve got wrapping ideas for every vibe. Let’s get wrapping!

The Classic

Perfect for the classic under-the-tree look. You can't go wrong. But, you could have a bit more fun! 

The Candy Roll

This one's for the playful soul. Wrap the tube in bright tissue paper, cinch the ends with ribbon, and voila—instant holiday cheer! Ideal for someone who loves nostalgia or has leftover tissue paper. Either way, The Candy Roll looks so perfect under a tree or in a stocking. 

The Prankster

Why not make unwrapping part of the fun? Place the tube in a larger box, add some crumpled paper, or even put it inside a nesting doll of boxes. Perfect for the joker or anyone who loves surprises. We promise it will be well worth the effort! 

Pen Doodles

For the artsy friend, wrap the tube in a sheet of doodle-covered paper or your own hand-drawn designs. Pair with a matching card for that extra thoughtful touch. This wrap screams, 'I care enough to customize.

Eco-Friendly 

Wrap it in a reusable fabric wrap or a page from an old atlas or book. Add a handwritten tag for that personal vibe. A hit with the environmentally conscious and anyone who loves unique touches. Cutting cost and waste? Sign us up. Oh! And don't forget to recycle! 

Minimalist 

For the sleek and simple gift-giver, wrap the tube in kraft paper and tie it off with twine or a slim black ribbon. It says, 'This pen is classy, and so am I.' Bonus points if you add a sprig of greenery for that Pinterest-perfect touch.

Fast n Furious  

Pen. In bag. Add tissue paper. Done.

The Bow

The perfect wrapping for a gift from you, to you! 

We don’t claim to be wrapping experts, but we are gifting experts—and we know a thing or two about creating joy. However you wrap your Retro51, one thing’s for sure: it’s what’s inside that counts (but hey, a little extra flair on the outside never hurts).
Wishing you and yours a joyful, creative, and bright holiday season!
