Step-By-Step Gift Wrapping Guide (Rectangle/Square box)

Step 1: 
Measure how much paper you need by placing the gift over the sheet and cut the wrapping paper to the size of the gift.
Step 2:
Now place the gift in the center of the paper (upside down). Bring two opposite sides of the paper in the middle of the box. Pull the sides tight and secure them with tape.

Step 3:
Now for the ends! Fold down the extended top flaps of the other two sides. With one open end facing you, fold in the side flaps, and then bring the bottom flap up and tape, creasing it well at every stop.
Step 4: 
Repeat step 3 with the other side.

Step 5: 
Press firmly all 4 sides and corners for a neat portraying fine edges. 

Step 6:
Tie a cute ribbon or embellish with a tag as desired.

#A Quick Trick - There's no such trend of a gift box in our country. So, don't worry if you don't have a box. To wrap any clothing item just place a piece of cardboard in between it and then fold it. It will give firmness to the present and it will not crumble. 

 Hopefully, this DIY will help and encourage everyone to start wrapping your gifts beautifully this festive season. So, let out your creativity and have fun while wrapping the gifts!
