Easy Gift Wrapping With Paper Bow

Easy and environmentally friendly method to wrap gifts with a gorgeous bow.

You'll need:

Coloured A4 paper

Ruler

Craft knife or scissors

Stapler

Paper bag (recycled shopping bag or the bags used to pack fruit and veg)

Cutting mat

Fold paper lenghtwise into eights. This doesn't have to be super exact.

Cut along the folds.

Make the hoops as shown in the pictures. Overlap the strips underneath the middle of the paper strip.

Make sure the overlapped ends form a square and staple them together on the side of the strip. A second will go in the middle of the strip to hold everything together.

Take another strip. Fold the ends and cut off a triangle. Fold the strip in the middle as shown in the pictures.

Put your gift in the bag. Roll up the top of the bag to close it. Place the hoops and the loose ends on top of the bag and secure it with a single staple in the middle.

Give your wonderfully wrapped present to a loved one. Make sure you tell them that you only used paper and staples to wrap their gift. They can either reuse the packaging or recycle it. Merry Christmas everyone ❤️
