My husband is practically anti-gift bag because he likes the satisfaction of unwrapping gifts. Pulling something out of a bag is just not the same experience.

I mean, gift bags can be reused more than wrapping paper and wrapping paper is a nightmare to recycle... having said that I LOVE wrapped gifts, probably like the wrapping more than the gift itself tbh and like, it's so satisfying to unwrap a present when the paper doesn't rio

Just my two cents... I recently went to my niece's birthday party and we had assembled the play station so she could play right away. It was large and awkward to wrap. I gave up on "pretty" and just used a bunch of pieces of paper to cover it, which looked kind of cool. But the secret? I also individually wrapped every tool and small piece. Believe me when I say she was so happy and thought she got "so many" presents. The small pieces were also wrapped with Frankenstein taped paper. So it took her a while to open it all. Let's be real, when it comes to a present, the best part is unwrapping it.

My favorite hack is pretty basic. That is, use a large flat solid surface, and not the floor! Table a large countertop workbench something like that. Everything is more precise and comes out neater when you do it this way.

Great video, I volunteer at a small bookshop and we always give little extra attention to our wrapping. So I tried it out. And around 5:26 (when you fold the long side before the 2nd short side) I discovered if you first fold short sides and the long last with an little extra fold you end up with a little pocket space to put some extra decoration like dried flowers or a card ;)

I’m struggling for words!! Omg!! Not to brag, but I fancy myself a bit of a wrapping ninja. I always go all out with handmade bows, lots of ribbon, name tags made from paint sample squares in pretty colors, and *crisp* corners. Irregular objects can be tricky, but that’s why I tend to hang onto shipping boxes and even just everyday stuff from the store that comes in various sizes of boxes (especially many small ones, my favorite being boxes from bar soap). This video though!! Wow!! I have really been wanting to up my game (chasing that crafter’s dragon, always learning new skills). I am both very humbled and very excited to try these techniques. I have some old newspaper (usually used when I need to use the hot glue gun or paint things). I’m going to do a few rounds with those so I don’t waste any actual wrapping paper. I’m dying to try these!!!!!!!!

This actually uses more paper than traditional “US” wrapping. However, I love the way this allows the paper to crease naturally. The traditional method always makes it harder to get the folds just right. The problem I’m finding is how to wrap a larger gift. With my rectangular gift laying the same direction as yours on the paper, my box takes well over half the width of the paper. So using enough for completely around once with a couple extra inches isn’t enough even before cutting it in half to make the square. Suggestions?

I needed to seeee this. I stopped wrapping because I would create such a mess. From the jagged edges, to having extra paper I need to cut off right as I’m folding 😂 🤦♀️ basically I was told I have two left hands 🙌 & I use wayyy to much tape. I try to cover up uneven parts by adding the bow & placing stickers all over it. 🙃 I’m going to have to take a look over the part here you make the bag because you can save $10-20 right there by making wrapping paper bags! Genius 😉 by the way it normally takes me at least an hour to wrap & another 10 mins to clean up the mess. Definitely getting that organizer! 👍🏻
