Step by Step Christmas Gift Drawing Instructions
Step 1 – Draw Two Big Ribbon Loops
Start with two curved leaf shapes on top, meeting at the center. These will be the top loops of the bow.
Step 2 – Add the Knot and Ribbon Ends
Draw a small oval in the middle for the knot, and two “tail” shapes coming down—these are the hanging parts of the bow.
Step 3 – Draw the Gift Box Top
Under the bow, draw a long rectangle that stretches across—this is the top edge of the gift box.
Step 4 – Add the Box Body
Now draw two long vertical lines down from each side and connect the bottom. You’ve just made a box!
Step 5 – Draw Ribbon Stripes
Add two vertical stripes on the box for the wrapping ribbon—it makes your gift look perfectly wrapped.
Step 6 – Add a Happy Face
Draw two circles for eyes and a curved smile between them. Now your gift is happy and festive!
