How to make a package of paper?

Throughout the year, we are waiting for a lot of holidays and birthdays of relatives and friends. For each celebration it is customary to prepare gifts to please loved ones with a pleasant trifle. But attention should be paid to packaging for the presentation. But it happens that at the most inopportune moment in the house you can not find elegant packaging, and there is not enough time to buy it. In such cases, you can solve the problem very simply - it remains to make a package of paper with your own hands.

How to make a paper bag: option 1

For this method of making a paper bag, you need a rectangular sheet of wrapping paper. If this material you do not have, fit wallpaper that remained after the repair, or an old newspaper, printed on dense log paper. In addition, you will need glue, as well as ribbon, string or twine for pens.

  1. At the top of the paper rectangle, fold the edge to the center by 1 cm.
  2. Then fold the paper 1.5-2 cm from the edge of the left side.
  3. Then it is necessary to fold a sheet of paper in half.
  4. Using glue, connect the bent lateral edge and the covering side. We get the package blank, where the first wrapped edge is the upper part of it.
  5. Now let's deal with the bottom of our package. To do this, wrap the bottom of the craft on the center by 6-7 cm.
  6. Unbend the edge of the bottom, adjacent to the surface of the table again down, bending at the same time to the middle of the bottom.
  7. Again, bend the side parts of the bottom of the package to the center so that one of them partially lies on the second.
  8. Place the overlay.

Almost done!

If necessary, make a hole in the top of the hole and drag the pieces of tape, tying their ends into nodules inside the bag made with your own hands. In general, paper bags can be decorated with their own hands in various ways. For example, attach a bow of ribbon, applique, etc.

How to make a paper bag: option 2

The proposed master class of a paper package is also not difficult. You again need paper. This can be a wallpaper, an old magazine or a wrapping paper. Also do not forget to stock up with scissors, pencil and glue (or scotch tape). Quite simply, but very neatly obtained, if the material cut out a pattern of paper bag, which is proposed below.

Cutting out the contour along a solid line, the workpiece should be folded along the lines indicated by the dotted line. In the end, it remains to glue the edges of the workpiece and the bottom details. By the way, it is better to strengthen it with a cut of cardboard.

If you do not want to tinker with a pattern, we suggest to make a package of paper, using for convenience the box with which we will form the package.

  1. Cut out a rectangle from the paper, slightly exceeding the dimensions of the box.
  2. Fold the top edge of the rectangle a few centimeters to the wrong side.
  3. Put the box to the strip and wrap it with paper. Secure the bag with glue or tape.
  4. Form the bottom of the package on the side where the edge is not bent. Collapse to the center of the side of the bottom of a smaller size, and then overlay one on the other side of a larger size and fix tape.
  5. After that, you can pull out the box from the paper bag.
  6. It remains only to puncture the holes in the top part of your craft.

The last detail should be a small tape. With its help you can fix your present inside the package. To do this, drag the ends of the tape through the holes in the bag and tie them together in a neat bow. Done!

Do not forget to just prepare a beautiful postcard with congratulations and sincere wishes.
