This a good one for the perfectionists out there. They will have much tidier pleats than I did on this one. Some alternate views of this wrap.
Materials used:
One of my favorite easy wraps. All you need are the ususal suspects (paper, ribbon, and tape) and a hole punch that makes a hole large enough to thread your ribbon through. More about how to wrap this...

I love the art of wrapping gifts and haven't had much luck finding much about it on the web. Years ago I lived in Japan where gift wrapping truly is an artform. Store clerks held me spellbound as I watched them adroitly wrap an entire box using just one piece of tape. How did they always start on the diagonal and end just at the right spot?
Most of the discussion on the web is around the waste of paper. I'm interested in fresh ideas (green and otherwise). I also like the idea of wrapping the impossible; like a vacuum cleaner. Or disguising easily identified gifts, like CD's.
I like using left over materials, like these plastic net produce bags.
I'm working on a couple projects that I'll post as soon as they're done and I have some decent images.
