If your gift is relatively small and fits in a box, then you can pack it in paper and decorate it under your clothes. How to make a box in the form of a shirt with your own hands:
- Pre-place the gift in a box, wrap it with plain wrapping paper, or use neutral low-key colors that are most similar in color to those that are used in men's wardrobe.
- The joint seam should not be located on the side face, as is usually the case with box packaging, but in the center of the largest side. This side will be front and on it we will fasten all subsequent decor.
- Take a strip of paper of the same color, wrap all the edges inward to make a neat rectangle. Its length in finished form should be equal to the length of the package. Width is a few centimeters, depending on the dimensions of the package. This will serve as the placket of the shirt on which the buttons are located. Glue it in the center of the box, closing the joint.
- Next is to start making a collar. To do this, take another paper strip. It can be a different shade or contrasting in color with the base of the product. At the rectangle we also bend the edges so that it looks neater and fold along the long side in half. This is necessary so that there is no wrong side on both sides.
Important! The length of the finished rectangle should be approximately equal to the width of the box, and the width of the finished collar is about 5 centimeters.
- Next, it is necessary to form a collar from a paper rectangle. Visually, the length of the rectangle is divided into three equal parts. We put it in front of us, bend the extreme parts at a slight angle to the bottom. The inner high points must be in contact.Thus we will form the future collar.
- Glue the finished collar to the box on top above the button placket.
Important! It should slightly, a centimeter, protrude above the top of the box.
- Now it's time to do the manufacturing of parts. You can cut a tie from beautiful paper, place it under the collar in the center and stick it. A homemade pocket will look great. The packaging will be completed with small buttons glued to the bar.
This package is very simple in execution, but, despite its simplicity, it can surprise any man.
