I'm a wrapping pro – here's how to wrap those awkward Christmas presents, including wine bottles | The Sun

WE all look forward to Christmas, but there’s is a slight feeling of dread when we start to think about wrapping presents. 

Luckily one content creator is getting us prepared early, sharing her tips on social media. 


Sophie, known online as @thefoldinglady, regularly shares her easy folding hacks with her 4.3 million followers.

In her latest video, the content creator shares how to wrap a bottle of wine. 

She starts by laying the bottle of wine diagonally on one corner of the paper. She cuts a straight line near the base of the bottle, leaving her with a large triangle of wrapping paper. 

Next, the content creator folds one of the pointed edges in repeatedly, creating an accordion-style fold.

From the other corner, Sophie starts rolling the paper around the bottle, towards the folded section. 

She secures the folded section to the side of the bottle – now wrapped – with double-sided tape. 

The wrapping pro decorates the base with a ribbon, again secured with double-sided tape. 

In the comments, she also recommends taping the paper to the base of the wine bottle to avoid it coming away.
