How to wrap a gift

Ninety four days left before Christmas , maybe some of us are already busy decorating their houses and thinking what should they give to their loves ones. But wrapping is also a major problem especially if the gift is too big.
So here the basic steps how to wrap your gifts.


`Materials:


  • wrapping paper
  • tape
  • scissors
  • ribbons
`Procedures:
  1. Prepare all the materials on a clean flat surface. Lay your box in the middle of the wrapping paper. Bring the long sides of the wrapping paper up around your box, pull them tight, and tape them down so that one overlaps the other. 
  2. Wrap the paper all the way over your gift, with a 1-2" overlap. If necessary, cut along the line where that overlap ends.
  3. Lay the box with one short end facing you, taped side up. On that end, fold the top side down until it's flat against the end of the box. This will fold the left & right sides of the excess paper into triangles. Take the left triangle and fold it smoothly against the end of the box, then take the right triangle and do the same. This leaves you with one last triangle on the bottom; fold it up against the end of the box, and tape it down.
    Turn the box around & repeat on the other short end. 
  4. After you wrap the box you can put ribbon for an extra touch. Your efforts will be much appreciated by the receiver.
You should not give a super expensive gift it should be a simple ones, but maybe of course it depends on the person how much she will be appreciated your efforts just to make you feel happy and important.
