What you will need

  • Paper — plain, corrugated or parchment;
  • scissors;
  • Paper clips are optional.

How to do

1. Fold a piece of paper 4-6 times. Roll the corrugated one into a bundle.

What other options are there

The filler for a gift can be made even faster by passing the paper through a shredder (office shredder). In this case, only ordinary sheets can be used, corrugated or parchment can spoil the technique.

Perhaps this is the fastest way to make filler. This decoration will be especially useful in New Year's gifts.

What you will need

  • Rain;
  • scissors.

How to do

1. Usually, the rain is kept on the factory tape, which does not allow it to disintegrate. You can cut off the attachment with scissors or leave it so that the recipient can use the decoration — for example, hang it on a Christmas tree.

2. Put the rain in a gift box. If you haven't cut the ribbon, hide it at the bottom.

The shiny filler for the gift is ready.

3. How to make a filler for a gift from sisal

Sisal fiber is made from agave leaves. In stores, you can find options of different colors and arrange a gift in the intended range. And with the help of green sisal, it is easy to simulate freshly mown grass.

What you will need

  • Sisal.

How to do

1. Sisal is available in two versions: in the form of a cloth or skeins similar to yarn. In any case, you need to disassemble the material into fibers with your fingers. You can adjust the density of the filler, making it more or less airy.

What you will need

  • Confetti or paper and a hole punch.

How to do
