What’s worse than wrapping gifts?

Easy, running out of wrapping paper in the middle of your wrap session.

We’ve all done it — and after you watch this clip you’re probably going to kick yourself.

A now-viral TikTok video has surfaced and it is proving to be a real  holiday game changer for those who tend to run out of wrapping paper or misjudge the box to paper ratio.

The video, which has also been re-shared on Twitter, shows a woman’s trick for wrapping gifts in the event that one’s wrapping paper ends up being “too short.”

You can hear Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas” playing in the background as TikTok user @mrs_dee_penda demonstrates her gift wrapping hack using a small box.

Rather than folding the wrapping paper in simple squares, the usual way people tend to wrap boxes, the woman instead folds the paper using triangular creases.

Some people were less than impressed as they said,

“I thought that’s how everybody wraps tiny boxes,” one person commented.

Another warned, “Never saw a video of this just been doing it forever y’all need some IQ tests.”

Others had no idea what they’d been missing, as they’ve been wasting tons of paper over the years.

Wowwwwwwwwww so all that paper I wasted and I could have done this 🥴🥴🥴🥴
