Christmas Gift Guide for Mum
How to wrap a Christmas present
Gift wrapping can prove tricky business! Although Decorque can’t wrap the presents for you, we’ve compiled some handy tips below for how to wrap your Christmas present.
- Measure out the paper before you start. Make sure you have enough wrapping paper to work with before you start wrapping. This avoids wastage and makes sure you end up with a neat final result!
- Use good quality tape. There’d be nothing worse than your gift unravelling before Christmas day. Use good quality, durable tape when you wrap to avoid a disaster later.
- Box up awkward shapes. If you are working with an awkward shape, consider finding a handy box to put the gift in. Gift wrapping a box is far easier and will look great!
- Avoid using too much paper. The only thing worse than too little wrapping paper is too much wrapping paper. This will look cluttered and clumsy!
- Don’t forget the decoration. Adding a ribbon will give a lovely festive touch to your Christmas present. You don’t have to stop there, either! You can adorn your present with anything you like, such as labels, bows, or even a sprig of holly. Check out this handy article full of gift wrapping ideas here.
