How to make a gift bag with your own hands?
You can put a small and rather light gift in a beautiful paper bag: for example, a T-shirt or a soft toy.
Choose a suitable piece of paper, fold it as shown in the photo and continue to follow the instructions. Use glue to glue joints- it will be much more reliable than double-sided tape. It's better to use both.
To secure the handles, make holes with a hole punch and pull the ropes through them. To decorate the package, you can use a gift tag, also made by yourself.
How to pack a box in gift paper?
The classic way of packing is using a box. You can make it yourself or buy it from a gift shop. Also, most of the gifts are sold already in the box (household appliances, dishes, cosmetics, etc.) You just have to pack everything beautifully.
To make a package you will need:
- gift paper;
- decorative elements: ribbons, bows, accessories, beads, natural materials;
- scissors;
- centimeter;
- double sided tape.
To begin with, we need to measure and then cut off a paper rectangle, from which we will make a gift wrapper. We determine the amount of paper for a gift as follows:
- the width of the rectangle is equal to the perimeter of the box + 2-3 cm per hem;
- the length of the rectangle will be 2 times the height of the box.
These parameters should be considered, especially if you are going to pack a large box, and even for the first time. In order to avoid mistakes and not spoil the gift material, practice on a regular newspaper. By the way, the method of packaging in newsprint and glossy paper is considered one of the most popular today. Gift wrappings in eco-style or in retro style look very original and funny.
And we begin the responsible process of wrapping the gift in wrapping paper. 
- After you have cut out the rectangle of the required size, place the gift box in the center. At one of the vertical ends, we make a 0.5-1 cm fold and glue it with double-sided tape.
- Wrap the box tightly with paper and secure the edge with double-sided tape.
- We bend the upper part of the paper and press it tightly against the end of the box.
- The side parts are also bent and fixed.
- We also bend the lower end, but then we bend it and hide the paper cut inward. We fix it on the sides with tape.
- On the opposite side, we repeat the same.
- To decorate a gift cut out a plain strip of paper and wrap it around the entire box along the length. At the back we fasten the strip with adhesive tape. Decorate with a decorative cord. Today, a laconic style is in fashion - minimalism. Bows should be small and neat, you can use decorative elements, but no more than 1-2 pieces per box.
