Something new for gift wrapping



OK, it might not be so new, but it is so simple, yet so nice, and there are endless variations. New Year is near and it is time to start thinking about gifts fo our love ones. Ant it is never just about buying and shopping, but how to make these moments solemn. Wrapping gift is as important to me as chosing the gift. I found this very easy yet very clever way of gift wrapping and made small tut to share it.












Tutorial how to make gifts box









Make a pattern: draw half a circle and add 1 cm of lenght. Size of the circle (and the box) depends on the gift.
Put the pattern on the paper and cut the four such pieces. Cut the square with the size of the circle diameter.



Bottom of the box (outer)



Inner side of the box
Glue this half circles on the square bottom.






Fold the 'petals' one under the previous (las one under the first one).




Take paper tape and glue it (not to the box, but two tape ends together).

Now it's the time to add string, other tapes, decorations.

Or, you can personalize yout own paper. Or, my favourite, recycle journals or newspapers.
