GIFT WRAPPING

Most filipino people are passionate in giving gifts


to express affection and to show concern with
others. It becomes a tradition across culture to
send gifts on special occasions such as birthdays,
christmas, easter, christening, wedding,
valentine’s day and others.
Our country is excellent on the production of
famous native products such as hats made
from buri, baskets from rattan, bags made
from abaca, native. Anahaw fans and many
others are good materials for exclusive and
personalized gift wrapping.
Aside from that, we also made ecology-friendly materials use
for wrapping and packaging of gifts such as: wrapping in the
source of sinamay, abaca, raffia, etc. Gift containers of
bayong bags made of buri, coconut leaves, tampipi (small
rectangular buri box), native baskets, boxes made of narra and
bamboo. Ribbons and bows in the source of abaca strings,
shells, dried flowers, twigs, etc.

To emphasize your creativity in gift wrapping, you
need to consider decorative designs like ribbon, bows,
etc. One common important in gift wrapping is gift
ribbons, it can be made into decorative rosettes and
bows with the use of bow pins, string and double side
tape. Here are some sample of gift ribbon that you will

Procedure:

1. Roll out the wrapping paper. Be sure you have


enough paper to fit around the entire gift. Measure if
necessary, leaving a few extra inches to be sure you are
completely covered.
2. Once the paper is cut to the right size, place your gift
face down in the middle of the paper. Bring paper from
the long side of the box, up to the middle of your
package. Pull both sides tightly so the paper hugs your
package smoothly, and tape.
3. Next, you need to close the ends. Face the open end
towards you and fold the right and left edges, pushing
the sides in next to your box, to form flaps.
4. Fold top flap down to the box, pulling tightly, and
tape. Fold the bottom flap up tightly and tape. Repeat
on other side of package.
5. Position box so top is facing up. Run your thumb
and forefinger across the edges of the box to create a
creased edge. Repeat on bottom of the box.
Decorative Articles
Gift wrapping will not be complete and attractive
without ribbons, bows and
decorative articles. Gift ribbons can be made into
decorative rosettes and bows with the use of bow pins,
string and double side tape.
RIBBON ROSETTE
1. Using a gift wrap ribbon, make a small loop by
wrapping this around your thumb; fix the loop in place
with the help of tape or stapler. Twist the ribbon back
on itself to form a pointed loop and tape in position.
2. Continue looping the ribbon in evenly spaced twists.
3. Continue winding outward in circles, until the bow
is big as your desired size; cut off the ribbon, leaving a
tail. Attach the rosette to the package; add trimmings
and tag.
TWISTED TRIM
1. Cut smaller strip of ribbon about 8 inches; twist
into a figure 8 shape.
2. Twist the ribbon to form a point at each end as
shown in the picture, then secure it in position by
dampening the tape. Cut the next strip about 3 inches
bigger; repeat the process. Put the smaller shape on top
in the center of the new shape; fix in place
3. Make four other figures of 8, cutting each one about
3 inches longer. Pile them all up and fix them together
in the center. Place the decoration on the gift and attach
it by wrapping ribbon around it and the parcel. Arrange
well so that each loop is raised above the other loops
and do not overlap.

TWISTED TRIM
1. Examine the ribbon. Find the natural curl of the
ribbon and which side is shiny and which is dull.
2. Grasp the ribbon at one end between the forefinger
and the thumb (if you’re right handed, places the
ribbon in your left hand, and vice versa if you're left
handed). Keep the dull side of the curling ribbon facing
downward (toward the ground)
3. Open the scissors with other hand. Contrary to what
you'd normally do with scissors, hold the scissors
upward, with the
blade facing up and open. Wrap your fingers around
the middle of the blades and handles with your thumb
along the non-sharpened side of one blade edge
4. Press the blade firmly against the dull underside of
the ribbon with your thumb.
5. Pull the ribbon across the scissors blade while
continuing to press with your thumb.
6. Release the ribbon from the scissors blade.
