How To Wrap A Present When You Have No Wrapping Paper

Religion And Culture : Presents

If you have to wrap a present out of the blue and you are unprepared, you can easily make do with a number of materials you might have lying about the house.



Brown paper which you would wrap boxes in can be brightened up with stickers and by stamping designs onto it. If you don't have any rubber stamps, you can cut a potato in half, carve a design and dip it in paint, then press this onto the paper for an unusual design!



You can also decorate these presents by sticking wrapped sweets to the paper.



If your present is quite small and easy to wrap, you could use the computer to print something onto a normal piece of paper, "Happy Birthday" in different colours and sizes, or another such greeting.



Remnants of wallpaper can also be used to wrap bulky items, as it will be durable and also add a unique touch to the gift.



Old pieces of netting can be used to tie up little chocolates or sweets.



Foil can be used - this will look very striking if you have a spare piece of ribbon to make a nice bow with.
