Envelope Wrap Variation

Sometimes the gift you want to wrap isn't thick enough to use one of the other wrapping techniques.

When this happens you can use a variation of the envelope wrap. Wrap just like the envelope wrap until it is time to do the hospital corners. (Photo 1)

When it is time to folder the corners, bring the top layer forward and over the box and crease (similar to the no seam corner folding).

Then bring the bottom layer of paper and fold at 90 degrees perpendicular to the bottom of the box. Crease and bring the bottom layer up and over the top of the box and crease (photo 2).

Tape along the two angled edges and along the straight edge of the flap (photo 3). Bring up and over the top of the box to secure. Repeat on the other side (photo4).

For this gift, I decided to use the back of the paper for the belly band (photo5).

I then added a coordinating ribbon to finish (photo6)
