New Year's traditions, together with the magical winter holiday - New Year, have come to us from time immemorial. According to long-established traditions, before New Year's Eve we install and decorate the Christmas tree, decorate the house, prepare a large number of festive dishes, and of course, prepare gifts for relatives and friends. Giving each other New Year's gifts is an equally old and good tradition. And it is very important to get it right with the gift, presenting exactly the kind of thing that you will like, so that the person will enjoy using it in the future. But no less important is the design of your gift, its packaging, on which the first impression that the gift will make on the recipient largely depends. The importance of this aspect has led to the emergence of special packaging stores, where they will select the most successful design option for you, and pack the item there. But in the pre-New Year bustle, we often have no time to look for such services, and on the other hand, we want to decorate the gift ourselves in order to convey through it the warmth of our attitude towards the person. We have selected several options for how to wrap a gift for the New Year 2019 with your own hands, which will transform the gift, making it a small masterpiece.

Most gifts are given in rectangular or square cardboard boxes of varying sizes. The figure below shows step-by-step instructions for packing such a box in wrapping paper.

New Year is already very close, which means you have already bought or are in full swing choosing gifts for your family. In any case, it's time to talk about how to beautifully wrap a New Year's gift with your own hands. New Year is the most magical holiday of the year, so the packaging for New Year's gifts needs appropriate packaging.

Simple packaging methods

Let's start with the simplest options for how to decorate and wrap a gift with your own hands. The simplest one: buy New Year-themed wrapping paper and ribbons or threads. Wrap the boxes in paper and tie pretty bows or make wool pom-poms. If there is no suitable wrapper: make stamps in the form of Christmas trees, snowflakes, etc.

By the way, printing is easy to do at home with your own hands without spending any money. You need to take a large potato, cut it in half and cut out a shape of the required shape on the cut of one of the halves. Then simply dip the figure in paint of the desired color and apply stamps. Or in glue, the imprint of which then needs to be sprinkled with glitter.

Packaging for children

Let's not forget that New Year is a family holiday. Therefore, those who have children should definitely pack a gift for the child in a special way.

You can also involve children in decorating gifts. Of course, there is no need to show each other gifts. Well, if you are preparing a gift from Santa Claus, then, of course, it is better to pack it separately. But wrapping “family” gifts together can be made a small family tradition. You can print out different New Year's figures for children: they will probably enjoy cutting them out and pasting them on or decorating them. In general, let's look at a few photos of ideas on how you can easily pack gifts with children.

In addition to paper figures, you can also use a plastic plate, felt, ribbons and buttons. Make, for example, the face of a snowman - it turns out original.

Or cut strips of different sizes, decorate them to your liking and glue them in the shape of a Christmas tree.

A box decorated with a double paper Christmas tree looks no worse.

You can also make an interesting cardboard Christmas tree: you just need to cut out a cardboard isosceles triangle and cover it with thread.

In addition, you can use tubes to decorate the box: make snowflakes or, again, Christmas trees out of them. In addition to them, you can decorate the box with some flat toy.

Or create decorations from fabric: Christmas balls, etc.

True housewives can pre-bake cookies, which they then use when wrapping a gift.

In addition, you can pack the box in plain paper and paint it with contrasting markers.

In addition, your children will probably love the idea of ​​​​decorating a box in the style of “Father Frost” or “Santa”.

Original packaging

For those who have a lot of time, a good mood and an irresistible desire to create masterpieces. You can safely start creating original packaging. And let our selection serve as inspiration. You will get an impressive box if you don’t just tie a ribbon on top of the wrapping paper, but add fir branches, snowflakes and dried oranges to it.

Or use twigs with glued foam balls and cover them with glitter.

Cinnamon sticks. In addition, you can not only tie decorations to the ribbon, but also glue them side by side. This way you can tie cinnamon sticks in a bow, and glue artificial fruits and a bird next to them.

Ordinary Christmas tree decorations, balls, also look beautiful. Moreover, they can be fixed in different ways: strung on the main ribbon, tied to it with contrasting threads, or simply glued to the box.

You can work hard and create a complex bow, or an unusual composition, using different ribbons and fabrics. Again, glue the New Year's decoration into the center.

You don’t have to buy jewelry in a store; you can make it yourself. Use paper, ribbons, etc.

Or make a beautiful snowflake from ordinary clothespins, paint it in a suitable color and decorate its box.

Magical packaging can be achieved if you put a transparent lace bag made of fabric or paper on top of the wrapping paper.

In addition, you can place colored feathers under a transparent wrapper - this creates an unusual package.

You will get an equally magical gift if you use a mesh in addition to ribbons.

Or this original idea: a “spruce” gift. Just cut small branches and carefully cover the entire box with them, wrap this beauty with ribbon on top and tie a bow.

A masterpiece can also be made from simple twine: wrap it tightly around the gift and tie a couple of balls with a spruce branch. In my opinion the result is brilliant.

You can wrap your gift beautifully in paper with your family photos printed on it. The result is not just a beautiful New Year's box, but a gift that carries a piece of your family happiness, warmth and just good memories.

If there is nowhere to print a photo poster of this format, you can simply glue small photographs or even print out the photographs and cut out cards from them.

By the way, a few words about cards: you can make beautiful mini cards from the same paper in which the box is wrapped.

Or you can use neutral wrapping paper for the box and work on an unusual New Year's card.

Another option for “warm” packaging: an old sweater.

In general, of course, as they say, the main thing is not the gift, and certainly not its packaging; you can decorate the box to a minimum.

Or make a bag from ordinary wallpaper or even wrap a box in an ordinary newspaper and just give a gift from the heart, I don’t think that such a box will cause negative emotions in anyone.

Remember, the main thing is not the gift, but the attention. New Year's mood to you and a happy new year!

The year is coming to an end, New Year and Christmas are just around the corner. And we so want to please our family and friends - to choose and give them more gifts and presents. Paper or cardboard packaging for New Year's gifts is no less important than the gift itself.

Of course, you can wrap a New Year's gift beautifully in a store, but it will be much cheaper and more interesting to wrap New Year's gifts with your own hands. Among the gifts there will probably be not only large, but also small surprises, little things that you want to pack in a more interesting way.

It's good to have templates on hand for this. Any paper is useful for packaging: craft paper, colored scrapbooking paper, cardboard, and so on.

Now many people at work will be preparing for the holidays, including purchasing souvenirs and gifts. DIY packaging for New Year's gifts can be combined with making name tags. Making a three-dimensional snowflake for decoration is very simple.

Figures made of colored cardboard - you can attach a lollipop or candy to them.

Packaging for New Year's gifts can be in the shape of a Christmas tree. If you make New Year's boxes, you can use anything: colored paper, old gift bags, colored or plain cardboard, and so on. You can make a blank from cardboard, and sprinkle glitter on top of the stationery glue or glue colored stars. Beautiful packaging for children's New Year's gifts will require your imagination and good taste.

To work you will need:

1. Paper or cardboard.
2. Scissors.
3. Pencil, ruler.
4. Stationery glue.
5. Ribbon or piece of braid, twine, lace.

Print the template on a printer, or draw it using a pencil and ruler. Cut out and transfer to the main sheet of cardboard.

We traced our cut-out blanks along the contour, and using a ruler we outlined the places of the folds.

We cut out the resulting parts of the box with scissors. Next, we need to bend our blanks along the dotted lines, like this:

Place the Christmas tree on colored paper and trace it.

Glue the Christmas tree onto cardboard and cut it out.

Use a hole puncher or scissors to make holes in the workpiece. Soda we will insert a ribbon or a beautiful braid.

This is the box we should get. A small gift will fit here: a souvenir, jewelry, and so on.

We thread a ribbon or braid through the holes and tie a bow. The box is ready. If several boxes are needed, they can be beautifully signed.

There are many templates - simple and more complex - with which you can wrap a gift for the New Year. Using these templates, you can make original boxes with your own hands. These boxes are suitable for both sweets and candies. An original paper New Year's box with candies will not be superfluous for a child.

Templates are enlarged or redrawn using a pen and ruler. Use colored cardboard or colorful paper. You can decorate with clippings, cards, New Year's tinsel, color pictures and even embroidery. Stars, the moon, snowflakes - made of foil and white paper - are welcome.

It would be interesting for a child to paint such a house. Your task is to print and cut out the box template. We cut along clear lines and bend along the dotted lines.

Packaging for a New Year's gift - we do it ourselves

Packaging for New Year's gifts 2018 - it should be made unusual, beautiful and tasteful. It’s so nice not only to receive, but also to give a beautifully packaged item. How to decorate a gift beautifully? There are many ways and types of design and decoration.

If you like to do handicrafts, then you, no doubt, have leftover fabrics, ribbons, yarn, braid - anything can come in handy. The most important thing is that we need paper for packaging: white office paper, newspapers, and best of all, craft paper.

In the last 5 years, gift wrapping made of craft paper, decorated with braid, ribbons, bows, Christmas tree branches, painted pine cones, figurines, and pompoms, has become popular.

Using craft paper for gift wrapping, ideas, twisted threads and paper decorations, you can decorate and beautifully arrange a gift of any size. Kraft paper can be bought on the Internet (it costs about 200 rubles for 10 meters), it is available in flower shops, and in large hardware stores it is free.

Before you wrap a gift, practice on an unnecessary newspaper - this way you will learn. First, we measure out such an amount of paper that along the length and width of the gift there is a supply of paper on each side that overlaps the holiday box by 3-5 cm.

We carefully pack the box lengthwise and secure it with a strip of tape. Then we proceed to the sides. First, we direct the paper from the sides to the center, and then close the sides of the box from the bottom and top. Stretch the paper and secure it with tape. If instead of paper you take burlap, a piece of knitwear, fabric, raincoat fabric, you will get an unusual soft packaging for New Year's gifts.
In the video: DIY textile packaging.

What is a gift without a beautiful bow. We will need a template, colored paper and office glue. We will make such beautiful bows.

We print the template, cut it out and, attaching it to colored paper or foil, trace it with a pencil and cut it out. Then all that remains is to glue the bow itself and glue it to the packaging.

To decorate a gift, you can use this cute snowman made of pompoms. It is attached with tape to the wrapping paper. In addition, you can hang it on a Christmas tree.

We make 2 pom-poms from white threads, leaving 7-8 cm at the tip of each. We tie the ends and cut off the excess “tails”.

Glue 2 beads instead of eyes and a nose made of fabric or felt. Felt bowler hat, wire headphones.

Take a thick thread, thread it through a large needle, and pass it through the top pompom. We make handles and a scarf.

You can make such a funny gnome if you take a piece of felt, white thread and a few beads. The gnome is attached to the paper by a thread using tape. The gnome's cap is embroidered with white thread.

We make a pompom from white threads.

We cut out the hat from felt, do embroidery and glue it on the side.

We sew on the nose bead, thread a thread through the top of the cap and the bead, and sew on a pompom. The gnome is ready for decoration.

A good packaging option is flowers made from napkins. A DIY New Year's gift - a soft toy, knitted socks, scarves, and so on - can be wrapped in beautiful paper with such decor.

Such original pendants for decorating New Year's boxes are made from fresh orange peels and paper or cardboard. We cut out the blank and crochet the edges. Beautiful, unusual and exudes a fresh aroma.

Textile napkin

A couple of fresh, crispy baguettes and a jar of marmalade, wrapped in a festive napkin and complemented by a wooden juicer. This is one of thousands of edible gift options for cooking lovers and true aesthetes. Try to dream up a little on this topic: instead of marmalade, put a jar of pate in a napkin, and instead of baguettes, put homemade pancakes.

You can make cute tags for original gift packaging with your own hands by cutting out small squares from thick paper and trimming their edges with curly scissors.

Kraft paper and thread

Agree, this is the best packaging for soft New Year's gifts: mittens, scarves and woolen socks. Fold two sheets of craft paper together and draw the shape of a star, sock, heart or Christmas tree on them. Cut out the shape, put the gift between the layers and machine sew it with a contrasting thread (red or gold), stepping back about 1-2 cm from the edge.

Paper scraps

Wrap the gift in white wrapping paper and place a small strip of decorative paper down the center over it. Decorate the packaging with a cord and attach a small detail that will complement the gift. Place a congratulations sticker on top. Great idea for wrapping New Year's gifts!

Potatoes and paints

Take a piece of fabric so that you can easily fit the gift into it. Cut a large potato in half and carefully cut out the letter shape with a knife. Blot excess moisture with a paper towel, and apply acrylic paint to the cut out letter. Then press the “seal” onto the fabric.

Old maps

Pages from an old atlas and road maps look very stylish as homemade gift wrapping. And instead of tying a bow on top, add a quirky touch to the package: spray paint a leaf on a houseplant with gold spray, use a bright button and lanyard, or make a flower out of scraps of fabric.

Newspapers and twine

Edible white paper is a great background for silhouettes with Christmas symbols. Print and cut out the stencils, transfer them to newspaper pages or brown kraft paper, and then cut out the silhouettes. Glue them to the box in several places and tie the gift with simple twine.

Pins and buckles

Another original idea for wrapping New Year's gifts. Beautiful belt buckles and hairpin details are ideal for decorating a gift box. The buckle will not only add a glamorous look to the gift, but will also secure the ribbon. So the next time you want to throw away your old belt, think about how a cute buckle can enhance your gift.
