Wrapping gifts made easy: How to wrap round and oval gifts

Wrapping square or rectangular gifts is usually not a problem. When it comes to oval or round gifts, things get tricky, but not impossible. In our article we explain what you have to pay attention to and give you helpful tips.

Wrapping oval and round gifts: it's easy

For wrapping the round gifts, you only need your desired wrapping paper or fabric, adhesive tape and a suitable gift ribbon, for example a cotton cord, as for other gifts. You should also use a clean, level surface.

• First put your wrapping paper in front of you and place the gift in the middle.
• Now wrap the pages around the gift evenly.
• If the sides are all well covered, take the gift ribbon and use it to fix the wrapping paper in the top center.
• Either tie a loop as a finish or glue the ends of the ribbon.
• You can put a greeting or name card under the bow or stick it directly with the adhesive tape.
• In our next article we will show you how to wrap gifts completely without adhesive tape.

Gift candy: how it works

The packaging in candy form is somewhat more original.

• Put your packaging material back on a flat surface such as the table or floor.
• Place your gift in the middle of the packaging material.
• Now the pages are folded up to the gift, but not folded - they are simply folded over one another. To attach, stick an adhesive strip to the edges.
• Simply roll the round or oval gift into the wrapping paper. The pages that are turned in remain open.
• Now twist the two open sides a little - just like with a candy packaging.
• Tie a gift ribbon around each side and make a bow - your gift is beautifully packaged so easily.
