How To Wrap a Present for the Holidays

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Chapman chapter.

Wrapping presents shouldn’t have to be a science. Here are some tips to help you get wrapping during this holiday season!

  1. Get really pretty wrapping paper.
  2. Use a ton of clear tape.
  3. If you run out of clear tape, you can always use duct tape! 
  4. Cover up mistakes with big bows.
  5. To ensure protection, double wrap with bubble wrap.
  6. Or cellophane.  
  7. Make it very obvious what’s wrapped inside so there’s no confusion. 
  8. Pick mutliple colors of wrapping paper to add some flare! 
  9. And if you’re a hipster wanna-be, don’t use wrapping paper at all! 
  10. Wrapping paper, or no… as long as you do your best, your family won’t be disappointed. 

Happy wrapping!
