Before you start wrapping the gift, make sure that all of the tags are removed properly.

Place the gift inside a box
When you buy the gift, make sure you order a box of similar size, so that you can easily wrap what you have bought. It is ideal to check whether you already have some spare boxes at home. Some of the gifts come with their custom boxes, so you don’t have to worry in that case. -
