6. Wrap fully around the 4 sides with the largest surface area. Give yourself some leeway, as we'll be cutting off the excess. 7. Cut the wrapping paper to size, once again leaving a bit more than ½ the small axis's length on the other side as well.pic.twitter.com/uS0mEj1NuX

8. Cut any excess and make sure there is no skew to the paper. Try to align to a repeating pattern as best you can, but unless the pattern repeats proportional to 2x the sum of the largest edges of the box, it won't happen, so don't worry too much.pic.twitter.com/76rdyb9FE5

17. Give yourself a thumbs-up. You just made a pretty darn decent-looking wrapped box! With practice, it'll take less than 10 minutes per box. Now go and get some egg nog.pic.twitter.com/x6LnfUNNmi
