There are many holidays in the year when you need to give gifts to men. It is better to pack such gifts with your own hands in a special way. You don't need any romantic bows, various flowers and beads. Packaging for a man's gift should be strict and stylish.
It is necessary
- wrapping paper,
- ribbons,
- glue
Instructions
Step 1
The colors of the materials you use play a big role. They should be quite restrained, but at the same time juicy and deep. Therefore, take wrapping paper in plain color or with some simple pattern. The size of the paper should be at least twice the size of the gift itself. The paper should be long.
Step 2
Lay the wrapping paper out in front of you. Fold the allowance on its short side (in the future, it will equal the size of the sleeves of your package).
Step 3
Then make two folds along the long side of the paper.
Step 4
Bend the corners on the side where you made the allowance. They will be sleeves.
Step 5
Turn the blank over, and thus the sleeves are already visible.
Step 6
On the opposite side, fold the seam allowance upward two times towards the middle of your wrapping paper.
Step 7
Turn the paper over again and fold the corners. Thus, you will get the future collar.
Step 8
Fold the package in half, while hooking the side with the sleeves into the corners of the collar.
Step 9
On top of the collar, you can tie an original, strict bow, with its help, parts of the package will hold much stronger.
Step 10
You can also tie not a simple bow, but make, for example, a tie or bow tie from ribbons.
Step 11
Better yet, the holes will allow you to fasten the packaging particles, which you can make with a hole punch through all the layers of the wrapping paper near the edge, at the collar, and tie a ribbon, while tying all the layers of the package.
Step 12
The result is a gift wrapping in the form of a folded men's shirt. You can decorate it in various ways. The main thing is to show imagination. You can, for example, glue the stripes onto the sleeves. Alternatively, you can make a placket with clasps. Cut the plank from the main color paper, and the buttons from silver paper (on the back of the package). To make the buttons look real, draw holes on them with a simple pencil, and the threads with which the buttons seem to be sewn to your shirt can be drawn with a simple black pen.
Step 13
The finishing touch can be a pocket made of the same wrapping paper. Glue a solid border on top. A pocket can be decorated with the same button as on the strap with fasteners. You can put a postcard in this pocket.
