How To Gift Wrap A Bottle Of Wine

Whether it's a birthday, holiday party, or a simple dinner gathering, a bottle of wine is one of the most versatile and beloved gifts. However, wrapping a bottle of wine is often overlooked, and those who do attempt it, might end up facing difficulties due to its odd shape. The good news is, we've got you covered! In this guide, we'll teach you how to gift wrap a bottle of wine in a creative and eye-catching way that adds a personal touch to your present.

What You'll Need

  • A bottle of wine
  • Tissue paper (in your desired color)
  • Wrapping paper (of your choice, ideally something sturdy)
  • Scissors
  • Double-sided tape or clear tape
  • Ribbon (colors that complement your wrapping paper)
  • A gift tag or blank card (optional)

Step 1: Prepare the Wrapping Materials

Start by cutting the wrapping paper large enough to cover the entire bottle with a couple of inches to spare on each side. Make sure to cut the paper neatly and in a straight line. Place the wine bottle in the center of the wrapping paper.

Pro Tip:

Using a metallic or patterned wrapping paper can make your gift stand out and look fancy without much effort.

    Step 2: Wrap the Bottle's Body

    Take one edge of the wrapping paper and attach it to the wine bottle using a piece of double-sided tape. Gently stretch the wrapping paper across the bottle, without crumpling it, and then use tape to secure the other end of the paper to the bottle.

    Step 3: Neatly Fold the Bottom

    For the bottom closure, you'll want to create neat pleats. To do this, fold one side of the excess paper at the bottom inward to the center, ensuring that it lies flat. Now, fold the next side inwards, overlapping the first fold. Repeat this process with the remaining sides until the entire bottom is covered in a neat, overlapping design. Secure the bottom with tape to keep it in place.

    Step 4: Create a Paper Collar for the Neck

    Take some tissue paper, fold it in half and cut an ellipse shape that's big enough to go around the neck of the bottle. Make a small cut on the folded edge so that it fits around the neck of the wine bottle. This will create an elegant collar to cover the neck of the bottle. Place it on the neck, then secure it using some tape at the back.

    Step 5: Complete the Look with a Bow and Gift Tag

    Finally, it's time to add the finishing touches. Take a piece of ribbon and wrap it around the bottle's neck, tying it into a beautiful bow. If you're using a gift tag or card, don't forget to write your personal message and attach it to the bow.

    And there you have it, a beautifully wrapped wine bottle that's ready to be gifted! Not only does it look stunning, but it also adds a personal touch to your present.
