What Size Wrapping Paper Do You Need?

Measure the length, width and height of your gift before choosing wrapping paper. For a rectangular box, allow enough paper to wrap around the box, overlap the edges and fold over both ends. Wrapping paper sizes vary by product, so always check the selected product listing rather than assuming every design offers the same dimensions. ColorMeSmore's Design Your Own Wrapping Paper page currently advertises a 30 × 72-inch (6-foot) roll. Other ready-made designs may have different sizes. For step-by-step measuring and cutting examples, see our detailed box-measuring guide below.
