Cut a rectangular piece of wrapping paper. Both the length and width of the paper should cover the gift completely with a few inches of overlap.

Secure the folded edges with tape. If desired, punch two holes through the folded paper on both sides. Thread ribbon through the holes and tie into a bow.
Flatten one edge of the tube and fold the paper over by 1 inch. Fold again to hide the cut edge of the paper. Repeat on the other open end.
Loosely wrap the paper around the width of the gift, creating a tube with open ends, and secure with tape.
