Does this guide help at all? It helped me out when I was wrapping soap. Edit: better link https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7i-E66q-7SI
When you buy items you could try and request they do it, some shops offer that service but idk which.
Otherwise there’s always the good old gift bag or putting stuff in a mug and tying it in a gathered cellophane sack with a ribbon.
I bought some Reject Shop wrapping paper and did it at work. Someone else could have done it nicer but it has turned out alright
Nice.
