SUPPLIES: – Wrapping Paper – Scissors - Clear Tape – Double Sided Tape

[{"selector":"#anim-f2a9253e-782b-4f47-9944-7602d6def7eb","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4cb2f43e-d73f-4745-bc17-017833bc1bda","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-99.75787%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

STEP 1: Cut a piece of paper that's long enough to wrap around your box with a couple inches to spare. Tape one edge to box with clear tape.

[{"selector":"#anim-faee227e-7e24-4f62-8734-ab7d072510df","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c07dca5c-5da9-45a9-81e6-0a3e1938f7a8","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-99.75787%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

STEP 2: Fold under other edge (even with side of box), then use double sided tape to stick in place.

[{"selector":"#anim-2d68e258-4187-455a-b6ca-9a8078c67696","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d1676864-bc2f-4343-b6d1-4d63628e7c1c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-99.75787%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

STEP 3: At edge, press the center of the paper flap down and then out to meet the sides of the box. Crease sides to make to neat triangles.

[{"selector":"#anim-82b14bfd-1cf4-4804-8ca7-fddcde7ef076","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-63fa8e84-dfb2-474b-a112-309d5c7f4a59","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-99.75787%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

STEP 4: Place a piece of double sided tape on the inside of triangle, then fold in to seal.

[{"selector":"#anim-214140eb-5779-47bc-94d3-1047388fb47c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2c0ed65a-50a7-4e87-a210-4295cf7af1d6","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-99.75787%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

STEP 5: Fold in other side. If your paper is long enough, you should have a triangle. If not, the edge will be straight.

[{"selector":"#anim-b92519fc-d18f-4ca3-af4a-d5649ef232bb","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-98d7e128-36eb-44c7-891d-dd76e53c561b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-99.75787%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

STEP 6: Add more double sided tape to inside of triangle, then fold up. Repeat on other side.

[{"selector":"#anim-0a2cff7e-2513-44b8-b905-212b01927d22","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d45848ce-ee0b-49cc-bfc9-bdc939e2dd92","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-99.75787%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

ALTERATE END IDEA: If you paper is too short to create a triangle on the end (or you just want a tailored look), fold under the point / ends, then tape in place.

[{"selector":"#anim-9a1d1e5d-ec2d-4c6e-bbdf-d7000f711fce","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8f12ee73-3800-4e44-86f8-0181febd5d3e","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-99.75787%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]
