Wrapping a ... present? (beginner's level)

Firstly i choose a design suitable for a sweet young female
- i chose a 2 tone color, so i can keep it for future usage



I wrap the present, placing the ends at d side of the present
- i leave about an inch or longer at one side of the end


I make a twist at the longer side to unveil the other colored portion
- i make 2 twist to obtain a bouncy effect








Fold the the ends of the present from side to side equally (triangular shape)
- Form a sharp V-edge & fold down






Complete the other portion of the end
- Simple wrapping is done


Choose a ribbon for the present
- Tis ribbon could only be use for a matte wrapping paper...& I need something shiny, so tis is out.


For a more sophiscated look for a genuine close friend
- secretly opt for a brooch. An insect will look like its crawling onthe present... using red & green creates a x'masy style...




Choose what u deem fit for your friend/love
- Play with your imagination or creativity




Lastly u need a paper/plastic bag to carry your present
- tat's another topic...well, i bought one, one with a small writing card on it.
saves time & $, since i had already wrap a nice present...didn't want too much a DIY look
