Gift Wrapping Tissue Paper Ideas

Video Transcript

"Ok now we are ready to put a present in this bag. I'm going to use a little bit of tissue. If you've got some handy that is in different colors, chose something that sort of enhances the picture on the bag. If you are somebody who receives a lot of presents, you know you can save this stuff, no one will ever know. If it gets a little bit wrinkled, people expect it. It's going to get wrinkled anyway when we turn it into a little tuft sticking out of the bag. Now this piece of tissue is too big. Here is a trick to trimming tissue so you still have a nice edge. Fold your tissue in half and we are just going to cut the fold off and then we will have two pieces of tissue that's a little smaller. You can even fold it a couple of more times than that if you want to cut less. You'll probably be more neat about it then I'm being right now. There we go. So now we have two pieces of tissue and that's going to give it an extra lush look. Now I'm giving a pair of these really darling sunglasses to my friend. So I'm going to stick, this is the trick and people get this wrong all the time, they stick the present in and then they put tissue on top, tacky. I'm going to show you how to do it right. Stick your present in the center of the tissue, fold up your tissue and then hold your present ok. Now when you holding your present with one hand you are going to just arrange your tissue and bring up the sides a little bit. You've got like a little bouquet of tissue that you are holding now. It looks so neat it's not all crumpled it doesn't look like trash. It looks like lovely. Now all of this goes inside the tote. Spread our twine a little bit and stick it in. Oh it's yummy; it's almost like a little flower coming out of the top of the tote. Isn't that pretty, I love that."
