After cutting the paper, place the item in the center of paper and bring up the largest section and tape to the gift, if you tape it to the paper your item will slide around making more difficult to wrap. Now bring up sides and crease them so they lay flat, if you have a lot of paper hanging over cut it off so that the ends lay flat, then tape in place.
