Gift Packages – paper triangles

By

Sharing is caring!

Half the fun of gifts is the packaging – well, sometimes – well, mainly when the gift is cheap and small, it needs a fun package.  These paper triangles are fun to rip into and easy to make – win,win.  I won’t go into making a gift package paper triangle too much – there are several out there, but here’s an overview:

Use hot glue on the seams – I tried a gluestick first, but what was I thinking – hot glue did the trick.  Cut a rectangle and glue the 2 short ends together.  You’ll have a tube.  Then glue one end, like shown:

Now, for that open end, glue it together so the middle seam is on the side (on the end that’s already closed the seam is in the middle – can you see what I mean in the above pic?) – that’s what makes it triangle-ish.

For extra spunk, I ran both ends in my paper-crimper-thing – – it takes a little muscle since you’re crimping on top of dried hot glue, but it’s doable.

 Comes out like this – makes it look more “finished” if you ask me.

 That’s it – pretty easy and fun, right?  Now, make 70 more for every child at church.  The fun starts to wear off just a little….

 Oh, as I’m doing this and watching trash TV (I think it was The Bachelor) I had a sneak come down out of bed – she helped me “organize” them (see the line-up) – –

 Anyways, go try this – you can do it!

    I have always liked these, but never quite understood how to make them — well I knew how to do them all but that paper crimped part. Thanks for showing us today!

    Cute! These remind me of fruit popsicles we used to have at lunch in school. I like them, and I’m going to have to try this!

    So fun stopping by (for the first time)!

    Oh this is great.
    I can use it in my class too. I never let my pupils buy presents when there is a birthday or for Christmas. I let them make stuff, maybe they can wrap it in these 🙂
