Holiday How-To: Mini Xmas Gift Parcels.

by on Dec 5, 2009

Traditional gift wrapping technique places this gift in tissue paper, then a box, then paper around the box, then tape to secure it, a ribbon for some extra fun, then a bow, a gift tag to determine the recipient, and sometimes, even an extra bauble or ornament dangling from the finished product.

Phew.

This year – try something else, like these folded mini-gift parcels. Yoke Bakery has created a fully prepped option from a single sheet of paper. It might not take any less time the traditional route, but it’ll be way more fun, and consume much less resources.

Materials

2. Corrugated cardboard
3. Twines/ribbons/strings
4. Scissors
