How to Draw a Present easy with this how-to video and step-by-step drawing instructions. Simple drawing for kids and everyone.
Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
Let’s create a simple but beautiful gift box! For simplicity, let’s start by drawing the upper part of the current.
Draw two connecting diagonal lines in the middle, like the one seen in the illustration above.
Drawing a gift relies heavily on straight lines. So feel free to use the ruler to draw straight lines quickly and easily.
Step 2 – Create outline of current cap
Repeat the previous step and draw another line of a similar shape just below the first one we drew earlier. A set of these connected diagonals form the bottom part of the current’s cap.
At this point, you should now see two parallel lines with an arc or angle in between.
Step 3 – Now, finalize the cap of the current
Now it’s time to connect the two sets of diagonals on both sides to complete the cap of the current. Connect both sides by adding a short vertical on each side.
After completing this step, the structure of the cap should now be fully formed.
Step 4 – Draw the bottom half of the current
In this step we will draw the box part of the current.
Create the left side of the box by drawing a long, nearly vertical line and connecting it with a shorter diagonal line at the bottom, as shown in the illustration. This forms half the box of the current.
Step 5 – Finalize the structure of the present
Here, we will complete the box part of the present.
Simply draw the second half of the box by repeating what you did in Step 4, except you will do it for the right side of your current box.
Step 6 – Draw the dimensions of the current
To make the current look realistic, we’ll add a short vertical line right in the middle of the lid as well as a longer vertical line right in the middle of the box.
These two lines will appear connected as shown in the illustration above.
These lines form the sides of the box, making it appear three-dimensional.
Step 7 – Next, Draw the Ribbon of the Present
Of course, a gift wouldn’t be complete without a gift bow at the top! In this step, that’s exactly what we’re going to do.
It’s time to add some excitement by adding a gift bow! Draw a gift bow by adding two sets of inverted U-shaped curves at the top of the lid, like the one in the illustration.
Step 8 – Complete the Bow at the beginning of the Present
Draw another U-shaped curve in between the first two that we drew in the previous step. This forms the third set of bows.
Make sure that this curve is slightly larger than the first two curves we drew earlier.
Step 9 – Now the Gift combines both sides of the present
Complete the look of the gift bow adding a lace wrap around the existing one. Simply draw two parallel vertical lines either side of the current to create this effect!
Don’t forget to erase any part of the current that overlaps in the lace!
The final step is to add color to your beautiful gift! As you can see in the illustration above, we used a combination of yellow and pink, creating a vibrant and colorful gift!
Feel free to use any color you like to fill in the existing colors! We recommend using more than one color to make the present look more cheerful.
Have fun with colors and watch as currents finally come to life!
