Callie Bransiforte, a 29-year-old Connecticut blogger, posted a video that quickly spread over the Internet and became a real discovery for anyone experiencing annual difficulties with packing Christmas and New Year gifts, writes blogger Kallie branciforte.
Callie shared a few excellent life hacks, from using the diagonal wrapper method to creating gift boxes of toilet paper sleeves. What expert advises - you will find in the video, we will make a brief overview of her tips below.
Diagonal wrapper method
Allows you to save paper, and very noticeably. Placing a rectangular box diagonally in the middle of a square piece of wrapping paper, Callie shows how to wrap a gift without gaps, fixing each sheet of paper with scotch tape.
Use double tape
The blogger recommends the use of double-sided tape instead of the usual one in order to more reliably hold the sides of the gluing together. Callie thinks it helps packaging look more professional and solid.
Wrapping paper bow
This tip helps you make the most of your paper. Cut out a rectangular sheet, fold in half like a hot dog, then again, this time like a hamburger. Cut the paper into strips, leaving a border on the edge of the sheet, before curling them with scissors and shaping them into a bow. You can fix the bow on the box with tape.
Toilet paper packaging
A great way to wrap small gifts, says Callie. Take the bushing from the toilet paper, slightly wrap around the edges to crush them and round in the shape of a box. Instead of wrapping cardboard paper, the girl advises to take one piece of paper and carefully wrap around the resulting box, tied with a bow.
Pack of chips
Another cool trick: take a container of Pringles chips, wash them thoroughly, wrap them in paper, fix them with glue or tape. According to Callie, such boxes are best suited for gifts like nail polish, lipstick or, for example, a small poster.
