First, get your supplies. Measure the paper to see how much you need. Pull the loose end over the top of the box until it covers the top and sides and touches the table. Leave a little extra slack and cut the paper off the roll.

Now for the sides. The paper should go a little over halfway up the side. Make it even on both sides. Cut off the excess paper. Pull the longer sides up over the box and tape them.

Push the paper from the top into the corner with your thumb. Crease the paper diagonally. Repeat on the other side.

Push the bottom of the newly formed triangle in close to the box. Crease the diagonal along the table. Repeat on the other side.

For a cleaner edge, make a small fold first. Then fold up that final flap and tape it. Once again, repeat on the other side.

Then, the fun part... unwrapping!
