Next she flips the gift over onto its side and rolls the top paper down twice, once the paper is rolled she makes two slits toward the centre.
Mama Mila then folds the slits into a shirt collar shape and secures the gift wrap paper with sticky tape.
She finishes the gift wrap with a matching bow tie made from the same patterned paper.
The wrapping style will add an extra festive flair to gifts and will stun friends and family with your whimsical wrapping skills.

The handy mum from Melbourne also shared her tip for making the bowtie detail featured on the shirt, in an online video.
She starts by getting a long strip of scrap wrapping paper, folding it in half lengthways and cutting it into a fish-like or untied bowtie shape.
After cutting a triangle out of the 'tail', Chantel snips two small slits at the narrowest points on either side, one at the top and one at the bottom.
She then slides the slits into one another and pushes down the opposite side to the centre to create a bow shape.
Chantel then secures the bow by using another small strip of wrapping paper in the centre and sticks it to her gift.
'I love it, can't believe you made this all out of scraps,' a woman commented online.
