Gift Wrapping Ideas
On the advent of Father's Day, it is not only the
gift you give to dad that makes a loving statement. In fact, the gesture
of gift-giving is enhanced if you take proper measures to wrap the
present neatly and adorn it with a colorful ribbon or a thank-you card.
On top of it, a wrapped gift also increases the anticipation of the
recipient to find out what the gift holds inside. Remember, it's not
only you who loves surprises. Even daddy looks forward to some kind of
sweet shockers on his day. If you want to know how to actually wrap a
gift, just go through this article and explore some creative and unique
gift-wrapping ideas for Father's Day.
Gift Wrapping Ideas
- First and foremost, collect all your materials and lay them out
on a clean, flat surface. This way, you will have everything you
require for the task at hand. Most importantly, do not forget to
remove the price tag from the gift, before wrapping it.
- Place the gift inside a suitable box. Next, place the box along
the length of the wrapping paper. Now, wrap paper around the box,
leaving at least a 2-inch overlap. Ensure there is enough wrapping
paper at both sides to cover the ends of the box completely, when
folded over them.
- Once you cover the ends of the box, cut the paper from both
sides. Use a pencil to mark where this overlap ends and cut the
wrapping paper with the help of scissors in a straight line. Or
else, use a ruler to guide you in cutting a straight line.
- Closely inspect the wrapping paper at the ends of the box. Trim
away any extra paper so that the remaining flaps are long enough to
cover the whole box but short enough to fold over smoothly into
flaps.
- Once you are done with the trimming part, open the paper you've
just cut. Next, lay the box in the center of the unprinted side of
the paper. The top of the box should be kept face down.
- Carefully, fold the paper around the gift. On the horizontal side
of the paper, take one side and fold it over to the bottom of the
gift. Then take the other side and fold it over too. Take the longer
side of the paper and fold it under. It will ensure that you have a
smooth crease instead of a rough cutting. Put the longer end on top
of the other end and secure it with a cellophane tape.
- Make sure to fold one side of the box at a time. Fold the corners
of one side, so that it resembles a triangle. Next, fold the
straight end over and pull it to the top of the package. Secure
properly with a tape. Repeat the same steps on the other side.
- Now that the gift is wrapped, you can add colorful ribbons to
enhance it. Take a long ribbon and wrap it around the box lengthwise
and then twist it to form a seam. Now wrap the ribbon widthwise.
Turn the box over and tie a bow on the seamless side, exactly on the
point where the ribbon crosses.
- Slide a card that holds a message for your dad and place it under
the ribbon. Secure firmly with tape on the underside of the card and
your Fathers Day gift for daddy is ready with a presentable look.
