How to Wrap a Gift Step-by-Step
Let's get down to the basics of how to wrap a present. Follow these simple steps to wrap your gift like a pro:
Measure and Cut:
Place the box on the wrapping paper, ensuring there’s enough to cover all sides. Cut the paper accordingly.
Wrap and Secure:
Centre the box on the wrapping paper. Bring the paper up and over the box, securing it with double-sided tape.
Fold the Ends:
Fold the paper at each end of the box to create crisp edges. Bring the top and bottom flaps together and secure them with tape.
Personalising Your Gift Wrap
Ready to roll up your sleeves and get crafty? Personalising your gift wrap is where the magic happens. Turn plain paper into personalised masterpieces with a few simple techniques. Stamp it, stencil it, paint it — let your imagination run wild! And don't forget about the power of decorations. Glitter, sequins, buttons — the possibilities are endless. With a little creativity and a lot of love, you'll transform ordinary gifts into extraordinary treasures.
Ribbon and Bow Tutorials: Tie It Up in Style

Whether you prefer classic curls or funky loops, there are step-by-step tutorials on YouTube to suit every skill level. With a little practice, you'll be tying bows like a pro in no time.
