  • How to make gift wrap. Wine Tastic Gift Wrap - Step 1
    Step 1

    Start by making the two bases for the wine bags. For one version, use paper with a print on and for the other, plain black paper. Cut the sheets to 30 x 30cm then score the paper at 8cm and 22cm. Rotate the paper a quarter turn and score 8cm from the bottom.
