The simplest and most affordable packaging material is, of course, gift paper. It is dense, beautiful and easy to handle. When you are preparing a surprise for a person, pay attention to the moment of decorating your gift - and it will make an incredible impression!
There are several optionshow to wrap a gift in gift paper.
- You can make a bag from thick glossy paper and place a gift in it.
- Make or purchase a gift box and wrap it in pretty paper.
- Pack the gift without the box.
How to make a gift bag with your own hands?
You can put a small and rather light gift in a beautiful paper bag, such as a T-shirt or a stuffed toy.
Choose a suitable piece of paper, fold it like in the photo and continue following the instructions. Use glue to glue the joints - it will be much more reliable than double-sided tape. Better to use both.
To secure the handles, make holes with a hole punch and pull the ropes through them. To decorate the bag, you can use a gift tag, also made by yourself.
How to wrap a box in gift paper?
The classic way of packaging is using a box. You can make it yourself or purchase it from a gift shop. Also, most of the gifts are sold already in a box (household appliances, dishes, cosmetics, etc.). You just have to pack everything beautifully.
To make packaging you will need:
- gift paper;
- decorative elements: ribbons, bows, accessories, beads, natural materials;
- scissors;
- centimeter;
- double sided tape.
First, we need to measure and then cut off a paper rectangle, from which we will make a gift wrapper. We define 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 for the 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 packing in newsprint and glossy paper is considered one of the most popular today. Gift wrapping in eco-style or retro style looks very original and funny.
And we are starting the responsible process of wrapping a gift in wrapping paper. 
- Once you have cut out the rectangle you want, place the gift box in the center. At one of the vertical ends, we make a fold of 0.5-1 cm and glue it with double-sided tape.
- Wrap the box tightly with paper and secure the edge with double-sided tape.
- Bend the top of the paper and press it tightly against the end of the box.
- We also fold the side parts and fix them.
- We also bend the lower end, but then we bend it and hide the paper cut inward. We fix it with tape on the sides.
- Repeat the same on the opposite side.
- To decorate a gift cut out a plain strip of paper and wrap the entire box lengthwise with it. At the back we fasten the strip with tape. We decorate with a decorative cord. Today, laconic style is in fashion - minimalism. Bows should be small and neat, decorative elements can be used, but no more than 1-2 pieces per box.

Gift wrapping step-by-step instructions
I. How to wrap a square or rectangular gift in gift paper. First, let's figure out how to pack a gift, which is in a rectangular or square box, with our own hands correctly. 
For this we need: the actual wrapping paper, cords or tape for decoration, tape measure, scissors and scotch tape, double-sided is welcomed, because it can be hidden quite neatly.
Working process:
Cut out a rectangle from the selected paper. Its dimensions are calculated as follows: using a tape measure, we successively measure all four sides of the box and add three centimeters to the fold, so we get the width, the length is determined by the formula - 2 the height of the box itself + 1 length.
Advice! If you have never wrapped a gift with your own hands before, you should immediately practice on some unnecessary paper. For example, on a newspaper or on a piece of unnecessary wallpaper.
Before packing the gift box into paper, we revise the box and the gift itself for price tags, and, if necessary, remove them. Next, on a flat surface, lay out a rectangle of paper of the required size and a box with a gift. 
Place the box in the center of our rectangle. On any of the vertical edges, we fold inward by 0.5-1 cm. Glue adhesive tape to the fold. Wrap the box tightly in paper, pulling slightly if necessary to remove wrinkles. We align the paper along the edge, remove the film from the glued tape and glue the edge with a fold.
The bottom of the rectangle is bent and pressed tightly against the side edges of the box. After that, we bend it back, bend it in the middle, glue the tape and fasten it to the end. We carry out this operation from both sides.
II. Don't know how to wrap a gift in a round or oval box with wrapping paper?
Let's figure it out together. In such boxes, as a rule, there are various goodies, tea, coffee, sweets, and also sets. But not every professional will be able to properly pack such a box in wrapping paper, so first you should practice on an unnecessary newspaper. 
Working process:
We measure the height of the box. Cut out a strip of paper 2-3 cm wider. We glue our box in a circle, while tucking in about 1-2 from the top, 1 cm under the bottom from below. Of course, we remove the cover.
