How to fill a hamper or gift box with shredded paper

Pull the shreds apart with your fingers first so they fluff up and cover more space. Lay a bed at the bottom of the box or basket, stand the tallest and heaviest items at the back, then tuck more shreds between the gifts so nothing shifts. As a rough guide, start with one 50g bag for a gift box or gift bag and add a second for a large basket. Mixing one metallic colour with one plain colour looks full without costing much, such as gold with white or rose gold with pastel pink. Cover the top with cellophane if the hamper has to travel.
