Being creative on these wrappers would be very appreciated to the one who will receive the gift as there was an extra effort to it.
Here are a few tips on how to make your own amazing chocolate bar wrappers:
Choose a candy bar that is easy to wrap and is delicious. Measure the edges and the length of the candy bar. Do not forget to add an extra inch into the wrapper’s edges as it will be the part that will be folded and glued to close. Do not go over the extra inch needed to close or else it will look bulky.
Search for a drawing template which will be used to place your designs. If the candy bar you brought is in rectangular shape, follow it and match the measurements with the candy bar. Never place any designs on the 1/2 inch overlap as it will be covered with glue when you will close the wrapper. The other end will need to have a design to get a finished look.
Once you have the wrapper template that you like, add the background color to make it more beautiful and stunning to look at. You can also import some clip art from any online sources. There are different clipart online; some have funny pictures while others are just too serious making it boring. These clipart should relate to the purpose of the gift.
Put your message in the center of the wrapper and you can have a border design on the message if you want. You can choose either to have straight line borders, colorful ones or there are even border designs that have striking and vivid colors.
Beautify the back portion of the candy bar with any designs that you like. If you do not know any interesting designs to place, search the internet as it will give you a lot of suggestions for the style and designs that you can use for your chocolate bar wrapper. You can take credit by adding your name. This will let the receiver know who gave the gift and they can extend their gratitude to you.
Once the decoration is done to your liking, you can now print it. Cut slowly using your scissor so you will not destroy the design. Never use a cutter as it might devastate the design that you have carefully picked.
You can either remove the original wrapper of the candy bar or you can just leave it. Glue the flap to seal it. Double check that the front designs is where it should be. If there is a need to adjust the template, do it necessarily.
Add more decors such as glittery gems, soft feathers or colorful ribbons to make it more beautiful and amazing to look at. Now you are ready to give out the personalized gift to your friends and family.
