How to Uniquely wrap a Valentines gift

I am always looking for new ways to give presents. It shows that you actually care and took time and effort to make their gift special. I am also always out of gift wrap and have to make due with items around the house. This will help you give a spin to that gift you have for that special someone. Even if your not the perfect Hershey’s Kiss maker, they will appreciate the extra effort.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• A gift
• Cardboard
• Tissue paper
• Foil
• Paper
• Something to write with

1. Get a sturdy piece of cardboard in the shape of a circle. Circle needs to be bigger than the gift

2. Place the gift securely onto of the cardboard circle. You want to put kraft paper or tissues paper around the gift giving it the shape of a Hershey’s Kiss.

3. Now wrap the circle and gift completely in a layer of tissue paper followed by a layer of foil or metallic gift paper if you want it to be a holiday colored Kiss.
   
   As you close the foil up you want to slightly twist the foil to give it that point at the top. Before you close the Kiss take a long, skinny piece of paper and write a special message for the tail... or pull string to open the kiss. Add it to the top and finish.

Tips & Warnings

• It took me a couple of trys before I really got this down to look nice, so don't give up if it does you too.
