Here’s How You Can Wrap Weird Shaped Presents

There’s nothing like unwrapping a perfectly wrapped Christmas gift. It’s the reason why kids in movies are always ripping them apart. Despite the fact that there are really cute Christmas bags, which are also convenient and easy to use, presents wrapped with holiday themed paper are without a doubt superior. The issue is that wrapping these gifts takes time and skill.

When presents are shaped weird, like bottles or a tennis racquet, your problems are increased tenfold. Wrapping these gifts is complicated, demanding that you waste an entire roll of tape and cut your fingers only to have the end result look like crap.

Since gift wrapping makes up around 80-percent of Christmas, we’ve compiled a short list of videos that can help you wrap up these presents like a pro. Check them out:

There are objects out there that refuse to be categorized, so a paper bag is a good choice and also relatively easy to make. You can tie the top with a ribbon or tape it down, allowing for you to add anything you want inside your DIY bag.
