Hey everyone, today I decided to do something a bit different and fun – making my own constellation gift wrap! I’ve always loved looking at the stars, and I thought it would be cool to have wrapping paper that looks like the night sky. So, let’s get into how I did it.
First, I gathered all the stuff I needed. I bought some plain black wrapping paper from a shop – I figured it’s perfect for making it look like space. You can find them in any stationery store. Then, I needed something to make the stars. I thought about using paint, but then I remembered I had some white and silver gel pens. Those would work great for drawing stars and constellations.

Once I had everything, I started by laying out the wrapping paper on a big table. I made sure it was nice and flat. With my gel pens, I began drawing. I didn’t want to just put random dots, so I looked up some simple constellation patterns on my phone. I started with the easy ones, like the Big Dipper and Orion. It was pretty fun, trying to copy the patterns onto the paper.
- I used the white pen for the bigger stars, and the silver one to add some smaller, twinkling stars around them.
- I spread out the constellations across the paper, trying not to make it look too crowded. It’s all about finding that balance, you know?
After I was done with the constellations, I stepped back to see how it looked. It was pretty good, but I felt like something was missing. So, I decided to add some more tiny dots all over the paper to represent distant stars. This really made it look like a starry night sky. I also drew some shooting stars here and there – just for that extra magic!
It took me a while to finish, but I was so happy with the result. The wrapping paper looked awesome, like a little piece of the universe. I used it to wrap a friend’s birthday present, and they absolutely loved it! They said it was the coolest wrapping paper they’d ever seen. It felt really good to see how much they liked it.
Wrap Up
So, that’s how I made my constellation gift wrap. It was a fun and easy project, and it turned out amazing. If you’re looking for a unique way to wrap your gifts, I definitely recommend trying this out. It’s a great way to show someone you care, and it’s super satisfying to make something with your own hands. Plus, who doesn’t love stars?
