Beautiful products. Thanks for providing Christ centered wrapping paper.

This is beautiful paper with a beautiful message. If this can be used to free children from the sex trade then I want everyone to order from you.

Thank you for keeping Christ in Christmas.

I really liked the idea of helping children who have been victims to child slavery. This is a great way to help these individuals. Thank you for doing something!
female | 12/7/2010 | Western U.S.
What a great idea to help keep Christ in Christmas. While I like several of the proposed designs, I would like something that is appropriate for small gifts.
S.S. | 12/7/2010 | Utah
Thank you! I am so impressed with this concept. And while I really don't need wrapping paper right now (just bought a boat load at Costco), I am ordering anyway to support the cause of fighting human trafficking.

I am so delighted to find this site. Every year I find it harder to find
religious-themed gift wrap. I hope your business is successful so those of us who care about keeping Christ in Christmas will have a place to purchase our gift wrap.

Trafficking is an ENORMOUS problem which needs more attention than it has gotten. This is one way to do something concrete to help someone caught in the trap.
female | 12/7/2010 | Eastern U.S.
This is great!!! I am sending a link to your page to the local Christian Radio station.

[The Child is Born wrap] is beautiful...can't wait for it to arrive!!!
Thank you for providing CHRISTmas paper...grateful for you.
God bless you and those you love, today and every day :)
Stacey | 12/4/2010 | Louisiana
It struck me last year when I couldn't find paper with Jesus in it... or shepherds or wise men. What happened?
female | 12/2/2010 | Midwest
I am really excited to see someone focusing on Christ-centered gift wrap. I search in vain through the stores every year, and come across dozens of other consumers who are searching for the same thing. It's truly mind-boggling that stores willingly lose out financially by not selling Christ-centered paper. It's wonderful to see that someone is meeting that demand.
Rebecca | 12/2/2010 | Georgia
Thank you for making available to others wrapping paper with a Nativity theme. It has become important to me that the real meaning of Christmas be remembered and celebrated.
Annette | 12/1/2010 | Michigan
I have spent a lot of years trying to find Christmas wrap that truly reflected the correct message of the season.
Annette | 12/1/2010 | Virginia
Very nice. Thanks.
female | 11/30/2010 | Southern U.S.
I appreciate reading about your rationale behind pricing, shipping, etc. Knowing "why" something is expensive makes it easier to consider paying premium prices when times are tight
E.T. | 11/30/2010 | Midwest
I think this is a great idea; I will tell others about the website.
female | 11/30/2010 | Alberta, Canada
I love the wrapping paper, very cute & unique idea!
female | 11/29/2010 | Western U.S.
The last couple years I did a chrismon tree at church and this year I did a Christ tree. The ornaments depict Christ's ministery on earth. I was lucky to stumble on the Sacred Season ornaments, many of which are not available now. Maybe others would like to see Christ- centered wrapping paper that covers more than just the birth?
female | 11/28/2010 | Southern U.S.
Thank you for your site. I did not really like many of the items, but I will buy something from you anyway, just to show support for what you are doing. Thanks.
female | 11/25/2010
I love the idea of tasteful, spirit-oriented wrapping paper. I'm a little put off by ripping through the scriptures or the Savior though, so those rate lower for me. Some of the other designs are great though!
male | 11/21/2010 | Southern U.S.
Glad I found this site; put it on my Favorites.
female | 11/20/2010 | Southern U.S.
Wonderful I am so HAPPY to have found your website. Love it all thank you.
female | 11/19/2010 | West Coast
A fantastic tribute to the real meaning of christmas and a one of a kind website.
female | 11/17/2010 | UK
I have noticed for many years now that "someone" is behind taking away all Christian scenes from Christmas wrapping paper and also Christmas cards. I am no conspiracy type person but if you start paying attention in the stores you will see the reason for the Christmas celebration is disappearing in retail stores. Please help.
Brenda | 11/13/2010 | Texas
Your papers are beautiful and your idea for keeping Christ in Christmas is wonderful. Good luck to you.
Betty | 11/12/2010
I took a look at your wrapping papers, and I think it's a wonderful thing you're doing. I never thought of looking for wrapping paper with a Christ centered theme.
Beverly | 11/11/2010 | Japan
Btw you have a really nice site and very unique business. I also like the message.
Sonia | 11/10/2010
I just got it - opened it with my Mom and we both LOVED it - such high quality and beautiful designs. Hope you can come up with a lot more designs. I have several artist friends if you ever need a designer :)

Go with red& green, gold & silver for Christmas. Black for Christmas?? No way!
Joan | 11/7/2010 | New York
Finally!!! So happy to find some Christian gift wrap! I can't believe that even Christian bookstores do not carry Nativity gift wrap. I found some beautiful stuff a few years ago, and bought enough to last me awhile, but I cannot believe how much harder it is to find anything now. Thank you SO MUCH for making it available!
G.A. | 11/4/2010 | Arkansas
Thanks so much for posting Chloe's artwork...it was fun..and special to share with friends and family...
We received our gift wrap paper today...and we are very pleased...I used to spend hours shopping and trying to find paper...I love putting together "pretty" packages....but I was so frustrated with the secular paper...I am thrilled to have found your website...and now my shopping is done quickly and easily...and more importantly the gifts around the tree still remind everyone what Christmas is about! I love your paper!!!
Deva | 11/3/2010 | California
One daughter has emailed me about [receiving your paper]. She said it is beautiful and not the kind of paper you tear off a gift on Christmas morning. Thanks for taking care of this for me.
Vickie | 11/2/2010 | Lebanon
This is a great idea! Thanks for offering products that honor Christ.
GJL | 10/29/2010 | Utah
Special occasions mean a great deal to my wife and children. A gift's appearance is as important as the gift itself, so I appreciate the beautiful wrapping paper. It definitely helps focus on the true meaning of Christmas, the celebration of Jesus Christ.
Bryan | 10/28/2010 | Utah
I really love the wrappings, however the price is hard to justify...it is quite pricey. I can buy a huge roll of wrap from Costco for $10 that will last several years...so even though I prefer the Christ themed wrap, I cannot justify it in my budget for something that is a want and not a need.
Unknown | 10/26/2010 | Northwestern U. S.
[Note from First Christmas: This is a concern of ours as well. We look forward to a time when we have enough orders to print our gift wrap in bulk at lower prices. However, due to our commitment to provide jobs within the United States, we will never be able to compete with the unrealistic prices offered by those who print overseas.]
I love all of the designs. What a great idea.
Elaine | 10/26/2010 | Virginia
HAVE KEPT A COLLECTION FOR THE LAST 20 YEARS OF GIFT WRAP THAT PROCLAIMS JESUS'S BIRTH
Unknown | 10/26/2010 | Midwest
I like some of your designs, but don't be afraid to use classic Christmas colors. I like to see traditional red and green and most of your papers don't incorporate that.
Unknown | 10/22/2010 | Western U. S.
The wrap came and it is exquisite. Thank you.
Sandy | 9/14/2010 | California
I really do like your wrapping paper. It has a quality appearance that I think is missing with many other wrapping papers.
Troy | 6/23/2010 | Iowa
Your website is beautiful, classy and professional!! I love all of the paper and can't wait to see how your company grows!
Gisele | 03/16/2010 | Utah
Hey , I love the paper you offer. I am very glad to see it and hope to see more of it for next year. I will definitely buy some. Thanks.
Anne | 01/22/2010
Please put me on a mailing list. I am thrilled to finally find you! I collect nativities and would love the opportunity to wrap in the real meaning of Christmas!
Tamara | 12/25/09
I have two suggestions for your 2010 gift wrap survey. One, add a section for comments/ideas to the survey page. Two, add some paper designs that are more picture-focused, ex. Nativity, Magi/camels, shepherds/angels, etc. Many people want to have Christian paper for their kids' gifts, and the kids often can't read yet, so pictures tell the story.
Unknown | 12/24/2009
The paper arrived and it is just beautiful! All three patterns are just stunning in their own way, but my favorite is the Shepherds. This morning, I actually cut into the paper! I have a small tree which is completely covered with only nativity-themed ornaments. I had placed it on a box to get it to a better height -- now the box is covered with the Shepherds paper, and does it ever look beautiful!
I also have a "testimonial" to the quality of the paper. In my excitement to open the package and see the paper, I peeled off the clear packing tape from the plastic covering, threw it aside and then when I rolled open the paper, to my horror I got the front side of the wrapping paper stuck to the tape. I thought, "Oh, no, I've ruined a big section of my beautiful paper!" But, I carefully peeled the tape up, and it came right off with no damage to the paper or design at all! I was not only relieved, but impressed!
Thank you for doing this project -- I'm very excited to give this to my friends and share the beauty and spirit of these papers. I hope that amidst all the work and busy-ness this is adding to your Christmas this year, you can feel the peace and joy these papers are bringing to all of us who see them.
Janet | 12/11/2009 | Indiana
Thank you, thank you, thank you for offering a product that I have searched high and low for for the last few years. I will pray for your success and will definitely be returning next year to buy again! God bless you and Merry Christmas!
Sonja | 12/10/2009 | Louisiana
The paper is beautiful! I was not disappointed. I have always looked for Christmas wrapping paper that is centered around Christ. Fortunately, whenever I was able to find some that was acceptable in the past, I purchased several rolls. The last 2 yrs. I have not been able to find any and so I have none left for this year. . . . I was so thrilled to hear about your company! I hope you are very successful and that you can expand and grow to the level that you want. Merry Christmas!
Ann | 12/10/2009 | Utah
I just wanted to say thanks so much for the beautiful paper. . . . I can't wait to order some more. I have been handing out cards and forwarding your site address to lots of friends.
Amber | 12/08/2009 | Oklahoma
Old-fashioned paper, maybe with small repeated prints, is appealing to me. Stripes are a good background. And Caspari-type looks but with Christ-oriented themes would be a welcome change. But I did not like any of the ones in your surveys. If there had been room, I could have given specific comments about why for each of them. But good luck with a great idea.
Unknown | 11/21/2009
My wrap just arrived and it's very pretty. I'm happy with the quality too. . . . I'd love to see a tool to enlarge the [online] image on the wrap to read the messages. Would also love to see a wrap for next year with the Holy Family or Madonna & Child. I passed your website on to my rosary group and to other friends. God bless you in your efforts!
Catherine | 11/23/2009 | Wisconsin
I LOVE THE PAPER! Every year I wrap each gift in a different paper, and I prefer it to be Jesus related. Very tough to find, as you know! I just placed my order for “Unto You a Child is Born” paper. It's so unusual, I just absolutely LOVE it!
Susan | 11/19/2009 | Ohio
I love the website: easy to navigate and attractive. I’ve sent along the link to one of my friends who owns a bookstore. As well, I’ve tweeted and put the link on my Facebook wall. Not that I have a huge following, but every little bit helps to get the word out about your great product.
