This is a great way to pack what you want, make it look too big for the box you have on hand, or just display your wonderful gift.
Great for a family dinner...just wrap the box so it looks much better than the box, but you don't have to send it back.
Equipment needed to pack an open box:
1 box (with lid cut off) Container
remove tape Roll up the tape (you can still use clear tape and roll it up)
If you are lucky enough to find wrapping paper with mesh lines on the back, you will find it very easy.
Step 1: Cut the paper
First, cut a piece of wrapping paper to fit the square on all four sides. Then cut the corners of the wrapping paper so that the corners of the box form a 90-degree angle, as shown in the image:
Repeat the cut corners on all four corners.
Step 2: Fold
Fold the edges of each fold of paper about 1 inch or so.
Step 2 – Tape
Tape the ribbon to the wrapping paper around the edges and at the top.
If you don't have a roll of tape, simply roll it up and stick it to the paper.
Step 3: Wrap
Wrap it in a box and put the lid on the box.
Repeat this process for all 4 sides.
Now the box is completely closed from the outside and can be filled with various things. You can also take the time to cut pieces to fit the box.
Simply cut a piece of wrapping paper to fit the side of the box and glue it inside.
Or just add tissue paper and a gift and it probably won't show up in the box!
Step 4: Fill it with stuff!

Deeply stacked in an open box, the cutest gifts you can imagine! I love receiving craft supplies so this is my gift!
Packing boxes are also used for internal organization. The box can be packed to hold magazines, craft supplies, office supplies, and even clothes! Great way to recycle old boxes!
This fun way to wrap an open box is perfect for many applications. Will you be packing boxes this holiday season?
