Wrap a Gift in a Bag
Wrapping gifts in gift wrapping, can be a tedious chore, and cause a backache from bending over, cutting and shaping. The use of a gift bag is so much easier, neater and easier to carry.
Steps
- Open the gift bag and lay it on its side on a table or surface. Make sure it is the correct size for the gift. Wrap the gift in colored tissue paper.
- Scrunch tissue paper and place at the bottom of the bag.
- Slide gift into bag and turn bag upright. Place two small sheets of paper inside the bag between bag opening and gift on each side.
- Make sure the tissue paper covers the gift. Allow the tissue paper to extend above the sides of the bag itself, arranging it neatly and attractively.
- Tie the handles together with a small piece of scissor curled ribbon if the gift is small enough to accept this. Otherwise, just allow the handles to be separate. Its easier to carry it this way.
- Finished.
Tips
- Use more than one color of tissue as layers add interest to the wrapping.
- Stick a card in the side of the bag. It's an easier way to make the present look more personal.
