Bottle Wrapping

Supplies needed:

  • Bottle

  • Scarf or scrap fabric square

  • Ribbon

Method:

  1. Lay the scarf or scrap fabric out flat, pointed towards you in a diamond shape.

  2. Lay the bottle down with the base in the middle pointing upwards.

  3. Fold the lower half of the scarf up to make a triangle with the bottle inside.

  4. Pinch in the edges of the scarf, so you have four separate corners.

  5. Fold them over one by one, folding into the middle so they cross over each other.

  6. Gather the top of the bottle and tie it with some ribbon.

Wrapping Paper Gift Bag

Supplies needed:

  • Wrapping Paper

  • Sellotape

  • Scissors

  • Hole Punch

  • Ribbon

Method:

  1. Take a sheet of wrapping paper and fold both sides inwards, then add some tape down the middle.

  2. Fold the bottom up to create the base.

  3. Open up the bottom, and fold the ends in to create a triangle on each side.

  4. Fold both the flaps downwards and tape together.

  5. Fold over the top twice and tape it down in the middle.

  6. Using a hole punch, create two holes in the top of the bag. Then thread some ribbon through and tie in a nice bow.

Feet Bow

Supplies needed:

  • Ribbon

Method:

  1. Put your feet in front of you facing upwards.

  2. Leave a bit of the ribbon loose and then wrap it around your feet twice. Then bring it up towards your body.

  3. Widen your feet and bring the ribbon around the centre to create the middle of the bow.

  4. Bring the loose ribbon from the beginning round the bottom of the centre to tie a knot. You can then move it round to the back to make it look neater.

  5. Finally cut the end of the ribbons at an angle to make the tails.
