How nice to get a blanket as a gift. This irreplaceable thing will become a reminder that you are loved and want you to feel comfortable when you are at home. Frankly, no one will refuse such a presentation, be it a man, woman or child. But how to properly present a present is a question. In the case of gifts, you should always start with packaging.
Types of packaging
You can beautifully pack a plaid as a gift using wrapping paper. It is desirable to choose its color according to the type and character that is inherent in the donee. And you also need to consider the gender of the person to whom you prepared a soft offering. The wrapping paper is wrapped in light tones for women, girls and children, and darker shades can be used when you want to please a man.
Please note that red, golden and silver shades will suit everyone without exception. Moreover, these colors should be used when you present a blanket for the New Year.
Then you need to start choosing a quality gift paper. There is no shortage of this today. You just need to take into account the desired size and density, and the following information will help determine the option.
- If your blanket consists of soft and delicate material, then you can choose glossy paper for wrapping. She is beautiful, but her minus is a very fragile material. However, for delicate things such a wrapper is quite suitable.
- A papyrus paper will give your present a presentable look. It is also called silence. This material is adapted to fit snugly, and soft toys are usually wrapped in it. You can wrap and plaid.
- A durable canvas is crafting. This product practically does not tear, and with various variations you will be sure of the safety of things.Moreover, its specific properties will create the illusion of volume. A good argument for those who love large gifts.
- Plaid in corrugated paper will look exquisite because of its large embossing.
- A gift looks great in a stretching film. Polysilk is specially created for wrapping soft presents, and its surface is painted in a favorable metallic shade.
- Mulberry patterned paper. Due to the compressibility, it is able to create bulk packaging. Your gift will gain advantageous contours, and the suppleness of the material will help give the package a great look.
How to fold and arrange?
You decided to give a loved one a plaid and even chose and bought it, but you don’t know how to minimize and pack it in an original way? Do not despair. Making unusual packaging with your own hands is easy. Read the following information and you will be able to complete this task.
To start, fold the thing in a special way, for example, in the form of a heart. To do this, roll the plaid into a narrow strip along its length (about the way you turn the tube). Then smooth this tube. Then start rolling it from both sides to the center. When both twisted ends converge in the middle, form a heart. Secure with silver tape.
The form will also look original in the form of a snail. To form the next model, we proceed with the plaid in the same way as in the first case. Twist the thing in length into a narrow strip. Then you need to roll one edge to the middle and bandage with a colored ribbon. We bend the other half in half (this is the head) and attach it with a colored ribbon to the body (its ends should remain).
Next, we proceed to wrapping the gift in special paper. To do this, take a specific sheet that matches the size of the presentation. Do not save paper, otherwise the shape of the gift will lose its appearance. Carefully collect all its ends and turn towards the center. After that, we fix them with tape and decorate the docking place with a large paper bow.
By the way, the task will be simplified if you wrap the plaid in a stretching film - polysilicon.
Other design options
There are a very large number of them. For instance, you can make a box yourself from thick paper and decorate it with packaging material. To do this, cut the workpiece according to the size of the thing and glue all the ends. Decorate the lid with a large bow made of silver ribbon. In a color box, put a soft gift folded to your taste (it can be in the form of a heart).
It will be beneficial to look at a plaid if you roll it into a small but dense roller and fasten it with a colored ribbon. But the packaging in the form of a huge candy will make your present unforgettable. How to arrange it all? Imagine that your blanket, rolled up by a roller, is a huge sweet bar (candy from childhood), and wrapping paper is a candy wrapper from a bar. We cut out paper of the appropriate size, put our blanket-candy there and form a big candy.
You can also make a package in the form of a fish. We take the packing paper of the desired color and size (the fish come in different colors, which means we select them according to the meaning of the gift). We make a shape from a plaid in the form of a fish body and wrap it in paper (repeat the manipulations: we will improve the shape in the form of a fish).
Separately, we cut the fins and make the tail (it all depends on your imagination: you can not completely cut the sheet of paper into small stripes on the one hand, and on the other hand, wrinkle them with your palm). We supplement the body of the fish with its tail and fins (fix them with adhesive tape or glue). Do not forget about the eyes and mouth. When the matter is completed, you will see how creative solutions transform gifts made from the heart.
