    When I worked at Macy's, we brought the bottom crease all the way to the edge and double-side taped it there so that it looked almost seamless. We also put almost absolutely everything into Macy's boxes so that everything was easy to wrap nicely (we memorized the dimensions of different sized boxes to know exactly how much paper to cut) and so that we didn't have to tape the actual items. We also used really nice thick paper (like in the video) to prevent tearing and wrinkles and to make good, crisp corner creases. After 3 years there, I could wrap a gift in about 4 minutes, including the ribbon, with my eyes closed (I actually did this a few times).

      Exactly. It’s supposed to be seamless. The ends at macys would not look like this at all.

    I always end up with too much wrapping paper on the ends, and try cutting the excess off, and end up with a mess. Thanks for taking the time to make this detailed tutorial. Now I know how much paper I should have BEFORE I get to the point of no return. I also like the use of two sided tape.

    this is really the true way on how to wrap gifts this is how my mom taught me to wrap yrs ago, she used to work in a gift wrap dept. ever since I've been wrapping all gifts like this along with the finger pressing method to give boxes a more square look. best method, and very foolproof.

    Dear Aurora,
    I have seen this video (along with part 2-the bow) 6 or 7 times now (i had more than one occasion to wrap presents last and this year), and will probably watch it again. The reason why i enjoyed your gift wrapping technic, and not anyone else's, is because of your positive attitude towards it :) i like the fact that you are so joyful and happy, the fact that you are smiling all the way through the process, and just the way that you transfer your positive energy trans this video :)
    I truly hope that we will be seing more of your happy creativity as time goes by, maybe perhaps by showing us some other wrapping technics (like for next Christmas or some other occasion) or something else, but i really hope that these are not your last videos :) please stay as positive as you were, because a smile can do so much more than you can imagine :)

    I work in retail - nor Macy's but another store where we sell a lot of objects that end up as square packages, and I must say that although your end result is good lookwise, this would be far too slow - even if done at full speed and not slowed down to explain - to be feasible in a retail situation.
    Using tape for gifts that are square is for beginners or really large and/or heavy boxes (or obviously other shapes than square). It takes too long and when you wrap about 100 gifts a day, you get the handhold very very quickly to not need tape.
    I do not blame anyone for doing that though and with double sided tape it even looks good despite the tape. But please do not tape the paper onto the box inside. That is not a good way to go.
    The gift did however look nice, so props for that.

    • @emmteemee
      @emmteemee Před 9 lety +3

      I never tape the wrap to the box for two reasons: 1. I like to recycle gift boxes, and the tape would damage the box when the wrapping was removed. 2. When I'm using paper with a pattern, I like to make the pattern line up on the back. This almost never happens the first time you wrap the paper around the box - you have to tweak it a little. Taping the paper to the box prevents you from being able to tweak it. Notice how her ends didn't didn't match perfectly. It's not such a big deal with solid color paper like this, but with striped or patterned paper, it's really noticeable.

      ***** By taping only where the wrapping paper overlaps. If you fold the paper in the correct places and keep one hand on the overlap, and then place the tape, taping the paper to the actual gift is not necessary. It's not very difficult. Give it a try? 😃

    • @Kamila-cw1py
      @Kamila-cw1py Před 8 lety +5

      siotorres209 Why bother with holding the paper to the gift as you're folding it, when you could just tape it. And even then, it's so easy to remove the tape from the gift. All you need to do is peel and voila, tape is no longer a problem.

    She said "You also need some scissors but make sure you don't cut your hair off" why would we cut our hair?

      but how will she cut her hair shes cutting below her hands not even close to her hair

      Actually, that thought goes through my mind every time I pick up scissors, which is everyday, because my hair is down the bottom of my butt. If I didn't pay attention it would be very easy for me to cut my hair off. You must not have long hair or you would surely understand this...lolol. ;)

      @SharaMade Před 9 lety +3

      I have really long hair like the lovely lady in the video and I have to continually think about where my hair is (if I haven't tied it up) when I'm using scissors. Sometimes you get SO into whatever you're doing (making a video tutorial actually takes a LOT of concentration) that you forget about your hair. I've "trimmed" my hair on many occasions whilst cutting fabric, and even once whilst wrapping a present! :-) I appreciated her reminder :-)

      I personally liked the fact she referred to creasing the paper as "using the Finger Pressing Process" SMH

    A lot of times it looks nicer if you fold the extra bit over instead of cutting it. Lends itself to less possible paper cuts too
    (I work in a toy store that does free wrapping. Christmas' pass have made me pretty much golden at wrapping. Not bragging, just establishing credibility)

  • @eidodk
    @eidodk Před 7 lety +3

    So, if any store wrapped any of my gifts, putting tape on the actual box, i'd immediately ask them to give me a new one. The mere chance of the tape ripping into the box is too high.

    What kind of paper is that? It looks like a tough wrapping paper but nice....

    • @DawnToDuskDesigns
      @DawnToDuskDesigns  Před 3 lety

      Hi Evelyn! Thank you for watching and commenting! The gift wrapping paper is a little thicker than most (not sure if there's an actual name for this type), but very manageable and easy to wrap. If I recall correctly, I got it from either Marshalls or Burlington. They have beautiful quality paper there for reasonable prices. :) Hope you have happy holidays! Hugs! - A u r o r a

    • @CanadianPharmGirl
      @CanadianPharmGirl Před 9 lety +2

      Garth Exactly.
      If she just skipped the first piece of tape and just overlapped the wrapping paper and taped it down, she could move the paper around the box in such a way so as to bring the seam right up to one of the long edges, thus giving the gift a truly "seamless" appearance (the seam would be hidden by the edge of the box).
