ideas to make original gifts

You can discover four original ways to wrap gifts for a special and personalized event. I have devised the gift to be able to wrap a book. Another to wrap something childish and another to wrap with a super bow. The gift room is the most original because it is made in a traditional way forming a bag, adorned with a pastry lace which gives it a special touch with the lace that it has.

And how I always say, if there is a color, material, cord or any type of decoration that you have used and you do not like it, you can always substitute it for another to your best taste, or that comes closer to hand, there is always a solution.

You can see the step by step of this tutorial in the following video:

These are the materials that I have used:

  • Different colored wrapping paper
  • wide decorative ribbon about 2 meters long
  • double sided tape
  • normal masking tape
  • large pompoms to decorate, you can make them yourself by watching the tutorial here
  • small pompoms to decorate
  • transparent cellophane paper and a few more pieces but colored
  • candies to decorate, in this case I used chupa chups
  • ribbon of any type to wrap the children's gift
  • thick rope
  • a large writer-type pen
  • a lace
  • any pieces or ribbon to make the gift of the bag
  • an apparatus for making holes in the paper

To make the ribbon gift:

First step:

I will start by solving one of the problems we usually find ourselves when we do not have enough paper to wrap a gift. There is a very practical way to do it and that is by placing oblique shape the box or gift on it paper and wrap it obliquely as well.

Second step:

All the external parts must fold them intuitively, they do not have a fixed rule.

Third step:

We take a wide loop and we go rolling its scrolls one by one. Every time we do one we tie it with a string. With this 2-meter loop there are about seven turns. We tie the whole bouquet with the rope and cut oblique shape the tails of the noose that have been left over.

Fourth step:

In order to glue the loop we use double sided tape, which we will place in the box. If you also want to finish the bow so that it is well glued, you can use a few touches of liquid silicone. We can finally decorate the box by placing two pompoms next to the bow that will be glued with the same liquid silicone.

To make the children's gift:

First step:

We wrap a gift in a traditional way. We hit him on one of his faces some pompoms of different striking colors. We wrap the box with clear cellophane, trying to place the box upside down so that the joints of the paper are at the bottom.

Second step:

We wrap the box with a typical satin bow or those you have on hand. We wrap it on all four sides, leaving the loop in The top of the package. We wrap two candies with colored cellophane paper and we put them in the box. We can hold them with Scotch tape.

To do the one in the book:

First step:

We wrap a book with Gift Wrap in a traditional way. We put a thick twine knotting him by the main face. we put a string in the upper part and another in the lower part.

Second step:

We cut the ropes at a considered height and we frayed its ends to make it more decorative. It would simply be to put him in the middle a large pen.

To make a gift in the shape of a bag:

First step:

We cut a piece of wrapping paper with large and rectangular. We fold the left and right part toward the center, both ends being united. To unite them we will help each other Scotch tape.

Second step:

The bottom part that has formed us we will bend up. Right where we will make the fold we glue another bit of tape adhesive. We make a great fold, because it is the size that it will give us is the one that will remain as the base of the bag.

Third step:

We open the base and try expand corners sideways, as in the photo. If necessary, we will help each other by gluing adhesive tape. We go back to fold the other parts of the corners so that the base of the bag is formed.

Fourth step:

We put the gifts we have chosen before closing the bag. The we will close at the top, making a double hem and placing Scotch tape. To decorate it in an original way we place a folded lace that matches the size of the package.

Fifth step:

We do some holes that fit the package and lace to be able to pass a tape and we can leave everything closed and sealed. I used a double bow because it seemed to me that it was a little more original.
