Cylindrical gifts like candles are always popular around the holidays. But how do you wrap them if you don't have a box? This clever technique uses an embellishment to make wrapping easier, and extra festive.

1. Cut a piece of wrapping paper that's about 2 inches wider than the candle and the same height as the candle. Shoe Gift Box

2. Wrap the paper around the candle, then tape the paper to secure it.

3. Place a gift topper on top of the candle. This will hide the top of the candle plus give your gift a little extra embellishment!
