3 Ways To Wrapping Pillows As Gifts

1. When Using Wrapping Paper

Start by cutting your wrapping paper to size. Cut a piece of wrapping paper that is large enough to wrap around the entire pillow with a little bit of extra room.

Next, place the pillow in the center of the wrapping paper. Then, fold the paper over the pillow. Once you have the paper in place, use tape to secure it. To add a more personal touch, include a message with your gift by using a ribbon to tie a note around the wrapped pillow.

2. When Using A Gift Bag

If you are using a gift bag, start by placing the pillow inside the bag. Next, use tissue paper to fill any empty space in the bag. This will help keep the pillow in place and prevent it from moving around inside the bag. Once you have added tissue paper, close the top of the bag and use a piece of ribbon or string to tie it shut.

You can also add a personal touch by including a message with your gift. Tie the note to the bag using the same ribbon or string you used to close it.

3. When Using Fabric

You’ll need a few things before you get started: fabric, scissors, and a pillow. If you’re using a patterned fabric, make sure the design is centered on the pillow before you start cutting. Cut a piece of fabric that’s about twice the pillow’s width and long enough to wrap around it with some extra to spare.

Lay the fabric [1] flat on a surface and place the pillow in the center. Fold one side of the fabric over the pillow, tucking it underneath. Then, take the other side and do the same thing. You should now have a long strip of fabric with both ends tucked in and the pillow secure in the middle.

To finish, you can tie the fabric in a bow or knot or use ribbon or string to secure it. And that’s it! You’ve successfully wrapped a pillow in fabric. Now all that’s left to do is give it to someone special.

FAQs

Can you wrap a pillow with a ribbon?

Yes. Wrapping a pillow with a ribbon is a great way to add a personal touch to your gift, and it’s not as difficult as you might think. The key is to choose the right ribbon. For best results, look for a ribbon that is sturdy and slightly elastic.

This will help keep the fabric in place and prevent wrinkles. Once you have the right ribbon, measure out enough to go around the entire perimeter of the pillow. Then, use a fabric marker to trace a line where you must cut the ribbon. Finally, carefully glue or sew the ribbon in place.
