How to Perfectly Wrap a Present

Measure the Length of the Box

•  Move the box toward the end of the paper, positioning it so you can fold the edge of the paper a little more than halfway up the end of the box.

•  Do the same for the other side. Remove the box from the paper. Use your yardstick or fold the paper to mark the full length of the excess, then trim it away using your scissors.
