Before you fold your shirt, you need to prepare it:
- Of course, the shirt needs to be ironed. If you are going to fold several shirts, iron them all first, it will be more comfortable and faster. First, the collar is ironed, then the sleeves and only after that the shelves and back.
- Allow the shirts to cool down after ironing. Freshly ironed fabric wrinkles very quickly. Hang the shirts on a hanger and close the top button. In this state, let them hang for half an hour.
- After the shirt has cooled down, button up all buttons and lay the shirt back up on a flat surface. Smooth it out with your hands so that it is completely flat, without wrinkles.
With long sleeve
- Visually divide the shirt into three longitudinal sections. We bend the left third onto the back.
- Straighten the sleeve parallel to the side of the shirt. It is best to leave the cuffs unbuttoned.
- Repeat the actions on the right side in the same way.
- We fold the resulting rectangle three times. First, the lower part, about the width of the palm, is wrapped over the back. Fold the resulting new rectangle in half.
- Now you can put it in a neat stack in a closet or suitcase.
Short-sleeve
A short-sleeved shirt folds in the same way as a long-sleeved shirt, with the only difference that you are spared additional manipulation of the sleeves.
Polo
Polo shirts and T-shirts are rarely hung on a hanger, and yet they will also wrinkle in the closet if they are not folded correctly. There are two simple methods.
In a suitcase
- If you are packing a suitcase, place a thick cardboard rectangle on the back of the shirt before folding it. This is done when packing shirts in production. The cardboard keeps the shirt folded and keeps its shape longer. You can take the rectangle from the factory packaging or cut it yourself.
- To prevent expensive shirts from getting dirty and shedding on the road, wrap each with wrapping paper before putting it in a suitcase. Or use the dedicated storage pockets.
- In order not to deform the solid collar, fold the shirts with the right sides to each other with a "jack" - the collar of the upper shirt to the hem of the lower one.
- Some shirts are sold with special plastic collars and cuffs. It is ideal for a trip without letting the collar wrinkle. If you threw out the holders, or the shirt was sold without them, then you can put some soft, light things inside the collar, such as a thin scarf.
- When packing in a suitcase, shirts made of delicate fabrics, as well as polo shirts, can be rolled up rather than folded. It is much easier and does not leave longitudinal and transverse folds on delicate fabrics.
How to fold a shirt: basic methods
There are several methods of preserving the appearance of men's and women's shirts without shoulders. They are used for packaging in the textile industry. They are also relevant for home use. For a shirt with long sleeves, you can choose a convenient option from 3 methods, which differ only in the number of folds of the sleeves and the final shape of the product.
Any process begins by placing the shirt on a flat surface and fastening all buttons except the cuffs. The front side to the table, the sleeves are pulled apart. Smooth out all the irregularities on the fabric with your hands and start the process, observing the symmetry along the back of the shirt.
Classical technique
Determine the middle of each shoulder by eye. These points will be the fold on the right and left sides of the shirt.
- Fold the right third of the side of the shirt to the center of the back, trying to keep the line from the middle of the shoulder to the bottom straight without shifting to the side.
- The sleeve will be parallel to the left sleeve.It must be bent down along the seam and placed parallel to the side.
- Repeat all steps with the left half of the thing.
- Smooth the fabric over the entire surface with your hands.
- Tuck the hem to the side of the collar. The strip should be no more than 100 mm. You can skip this step if you need to reduce the number of folds.
- Make another fold, aligning the hem line with the bottom of the collar.
- The result is an even rectangle shape.
Repeat the process with all shirts, stacking them on a shelf in a closet or dresser.
Several shirts should be stacked on top of each other according to the "jack" principle, alternating the hem and collar. This will keep the collars in shape and the pack will stay flat.
Shirts are folded in stores like this.
Alternative
Correctly folding a long-sleeved shirt can also be done in another way, which differs from the classical technique only in the stage of laying the sleeves.
- Lay the shirt out on a flat surface, as in the previous instructions.
- Bend one side of the product along the line from the shoulder to the bottom. The sleeve will be partially on the other sleeve.
- Now we bend the sleeve not parallel to the sidewall, but perpendicularly in 2 turns. The cuff should remain over the folded back sidewall.
- Repeat the manipulations with the other half of the shirt so that the sleeves are connected in one parallel line above each other.
- It remains to combine the hem with the collar line, folding the product in half.
This option can also be used for shirts with short sleeves.
The technology of twisting the shirt into a roll
Shirts folded in a rectangle require room to fit, which is not always convenient when traveling. To reduce the volume of things, it is recommended to roll them into a roll, observing the following conditions:
- Place a clean and ironed blouse on the surface and smooth it out with your hands.
- Fold the product in half along the button line, aligning the sleeves, sides, hem.
- The protruding sleeves must be combined with the main part of the shirt, folding them along the seam line parallel to the sides.
- It turns out a rectangular strip that needs to be rolled up from the hem to the collar.
- The collar cannot be twisted. It remains in its original form.
In this form, the shirt takes up less space and can be compactly stowed in a suitcase, bag or backpack. The technology is also used at home, if things are put away for storage according to the season. Before use, the shirt in a roll must be straightened and hung on a hanger to restore its original appearance.
How to fold a shirt for the road
How to do it correctly so that the shirt does not wrinkle?
Folding a shirt properly for travel or storage at home is often a tricky task. At the same time, it is necessary to preserve its appearance.
To do this, you must first prepare it, and this can be done as follows:
- Examine the garment carefully for stains, especially around the collar and cuffs on the sleeves;
- If there is an unpleasant or stale smell, wash the item;
- In order to avoid bruises, the shirt must be kept buttoned;
- The shirt should be ironed in the steaming mode, as this will eliminate all even very small folds and creases;
- Do not fold the product after ironing, as it may be damp. To dry, they should be hung neatly on a hanger.
Ironing the product is carried out in the following sequence:
- Gate;
- Shelves (left, right);
- Back;
- Sleeves and cuffs.
The video tells you how to iron the product correctly:
In a suitcase on the road
Shirts and items made from delicate fabrics are recommended to be put last. In this case, the likelihood that they will retain their proper appearance is much higher.
Suitcases usually have a rigid frame, which allows you to bring things in their original form.
To do this, you should perform a number of simple manipulations:
- Iron your shirt. Avoid creases and dents when ironing.
- Fasten the shirt with all available buttons.Cuffs are no exception.
- If the item is wet after ironing, then hang it on a hanger and let it dry.
- Lay the shirt on a hard, level surface with the front side down.
- If there is a sheet of thick cardboard in A4 format, then you can use it. This will simplify folding, and will also be a rigid frame that prevents the item from wrinkling.
- Bend the sleeves along the shoulder line inward, to the line where the buttons are located. When reaching that, bend again, but in the opposite direction. This is done because the sleeve is longer than the product itself.
- The shirt is folded in half along the sleeve fold line located transversely.
How to fold a shirt with sleeves using A4 paper is shown in the video:
Houses
The ideal way to store your shirts at home is a coat hanger or a simple hanger. But often there may not be enough hangers, space in the closet or these things are rarely worn, so they can be put on the shelf in the closet.
Shirts can be folded in the same way as in a suitcase. But they have them in a pile, and the collars - "jack".
In this case, the stack will be even, neat, and the shirts will remain the required appearance.
We pack compactly and quickly
Sometimes you need to take so many things with you, but the amount of space for this is limited. For this, there are ways to compactly fold things. And if you are in a hurry and urgently need to get ready, then methods that will not spend a lot of time will help.
Roll
The easiest way to pack things in a space-saving way is to roll it.
It should be folded on top of each other alternately while wrapping the sleeves to the midline.
Roll up a roll of shirts, starting at the bottom end.
Mechanical device
Quick options include using a dedicated mechanical shirt folding device. It can be used to fold not only shirts, but also trousers, T-shirts, sweaters.
The advantages of this tool are:
-
Save time
... Folds your favorite shirt in seconds. -
No bruises
... It allows you to put things in such a way that any sales assistant from a clothing store, perked up in this matter, will envy this evenness and accuracy. -
One size
... The folded clothes are one size, which makes it easier to place and store them.
It is simple to use this mechanism: spread the thing with the front part on the device, bend the side parts to the centerline, and then fold it in half.
In half
The simplest and least time-consuming method is folding in half.
It is familiar to everyone and consists of the following points:
- The shirt is placed face down;
- The thing is folded along the median line so that the sleeve coincides with the opposite sleeve;
- The sleeves are folded in the opposite direction to the fold line;
- Tuck in two times, starting from the lower end of the shirt.
Video instruction
Correct folding of clothes
- a real science, mastering which frees you from additional work on putting things in order before the next use. This skill becomes especially important when preparing for trips. Men's shirts, folded according to certain rules, take up less space in your luggage and do not require special care in the future.
You can learn how to fold a shirt. Like any skill, it is easier to perform each time, gradually comes to automatism. The main thing is to do this taking into account the rules that have been developed by specialists.
Let's get acquainted with the main ways of folding shirts with long and short sleeves.
There are three common packaging methods for long sleeve shirts. They differ in the options for the layout of the sleeve or the resulting shape (rectangle or cylinder (roll)).
First option
In the traditional way, the shirt is folded, making the minimum number of folds on the sleeve (two folds).
Algorithm of actions:
- Carefully lay the shirt out on a flat surface (on a table, bed or on the floor) so that no part hangs over the edge of the surface. In this case, the fastener should be at the bottom (facing the surface), and the back of the product at the top.
- We wrap the left side of the product together with the sleeve on the back so that the sleeve is located diagonally across the back. (You can put the rolled up sleeve not diagonally, but put it on the second sleeve.) This also wraps the side of the product. It is superimposed on the back, occupying approximately the fourth part of it.
- Do not leave the sleeve in a diagonal position. We lift up its main part and lay it next to the side seam. In this case, the cuff does not protrude beyond the lower edge of the product. Now half of the back is occupied (side + sleeve).
- We carry out similar actions with the other half of the shirt. As a result, we have in front of us in the center of the back of the product - two sleeves lying side by side.
- We fold the shirt three times along the length. We start from the bottom edge, make a twist about the length of the palm (1/3 of the product). We make sure that everything looks neat, folds and creases do not appear. After that, we fold it a second time, reaching the collar of the shirt. We turn it over with the clasp up.
Second option
Another way is often used to get a shirt rolled up in the shape of a rectangle. This option differs from the first in that the sleeve is folded not 2, but 3 times.
Algorithm of actions:
- We put the shirt on a flat surface with the fastener down, back up.
- We put the left sleeve on the right one. In this case, a vertical line should form from the collar downward.
- Then we wrap the same sleeve back, making a fold at the level of the other edge of the collar. After that, once again we fold that part of the sleeve with the cuff, which extends beyond the formed vertical line. We get a sleeve that is folded three times.
- We repeat the same actions with the other sleeve. As a result, we get a product, the length of which has not changed yet, and the width does not exceed the collar.
- We fold the shirt in length, dividing it into 3 parts: first, the lower part, then again. Now we raise the bottom edge obtained during the first folding to the collar. The shirt is folded, you can turn it face up.
The third option
Recently, the use of rolling shirts with a roll (roller) is increasingly used. The popularity of this method is explained by its convenience: things rolled up in the form of a roller (roll) take up less space, which makes it possible to place luggage more compactly, to put more things in a suitcase or bag than in the usual way.
Algorithm of actions:
We start with the traditional fastening of all buttons and unfolding the product on a flat surface.
For a shirt lying face down, fold one of the sleeves along the shoulder line, so that when folded, the side of the shirt forms an even vertical line.
We repeat the same action with the second sleeve. We make sure that the length of both side lines is approximately the same length.
We start rolling the shirt with a roll. This can be done in different ways. One option assumes that the twist starts at the bottom edge of the garment and extends to the collar. In another method, the shirt is first folded three times and then rolled into a roll.
In this case, it is important not to make any efforts: the roller should not be very tight, otherwise unnecessary folds and creases will appear on the product.
How to fold a t-shirt quickly and compactly
Effective packaging skills are especially relevant for those who are going on a journey. In this case, things will take up less space and remain uncrumpled. Compact methods include roll and pocket folding, the assembly process does not take much time, and every thing will be in sight.
A firm, level surface is required for the procedure to be carried out correctly.
When packing your suitcase, use a life hack on how to fold T-shirts correctly and efficiently:
- Lay the first T-shirt on a flat surface, the second with an overlap of about 10 cm so that the shoulders touch.
- Place the rest of the items one by one on top from the largest to the smallest.
- Put linen and other little things in the middle, cover them with a top T-shirt.
- Lift the rest one by one in the reverse order. The bottom T-shirt will be on top, covering the large bundle.
This method is convenient to use when collecting a suitcase.
Tips for all occasions
Regardless of the place in which you need to fold a men's or women's shirt, a number of recommendations should be followed:
- The wardrobe attribute should be clean and ironed.
- To maintain the shape of the shirt, use a rigid base between the back and the front. Secure the collar and cuffs with plastic inserts, which are supplied in the original packaging. An alternative would be a tie or scarf.
- To prevent the formation of stains, light-colored items should be placed in separate covers, bags or wrapped in paper to exclude contact of fabrics both during the trip and in the linen closet.
- For business trips, there is a special organizer called a carry bag. In it, not only shirts, but also a jacket and other accessories perfectly keep their shape.
Force majeure on the road is not excluded, and the wardrobe can get worn out. Light bruises can be eliminated with the help of improvised means:
- Hang clothes on hangers in the bathroom. Open hot water. The steam will moisturize the fabric and smooth out creases in the fabric. Wait until it is completely dry.
- Girls who have a hair straightener in their luggage will easily correct the situation by passing flat nozzles over the fabric.
- An alternative to the iron can be a heavy object that is used as a press, attached to the problem area.
- When traveling, it is advisable to put shirts in a suitcase with hard walls or special compartments to prevent deformation and creases on the fabric. An alternative is a magazine, cardboard and other stiffeners, which are placed on the bottom of the suitcase and between things.
Most effective ways to fold long sleeve shirts
Of the wide variety of options for how best to fold the described thing, several, so to speak, classic ones can be distinguished. It should be noted that regardless of the technology, it is necessary to act as carefully as possible when packing shirts. And first of all, you need to prepare the work surface. It should be flat and wide enough. The most suitable option would be a clean and dry wiped table (it is recommended to cover it with a thick cloth).
The first method, called “Sleeves to the sides,” involves the following steps:
- Button up the shirt.
- Place clothing face down.
- Visually, the product should be divided into three parts horizontally. In this case, the lower third is folded back so that it reaches the center of the shoulder on the sleeve.
- The right sleeve folds over to the left with a fold around the middle of the shoulder. As a result, the cuffs should be on top.
- The left one folds in the same way and is parallel to the right. In this case, his cuffs should be placed closer to the collar.
- The hem of the shirt folds upward so that it reaches the collar.
At the final stage, you will need to turn the thing right side up. It remains only to make sure that there are no folds on the material. As practice shows, such a pattern after transportation will be quite difficult to smooth out.
The next method can be called "Back sleeves". It also includes a number of manipulations, namely:
- Buttoning all buttons or bottom and top (cuffs are optional).
- Place the shirt face down on the prepared surface.
- Find the middle between the seam on the collar and the hem of the left sleeve.
- With one hand, hold the found point, and the other lower part of the shirt at the same level.
- Bend the sleeve behind the back of the garment along the formed line.
- The second half should be folded in the same way.
- Both sleeves should end up behind the back.
- The product folds in three, starting from the bottom of it.
On the shelf of the cabinet, folded shirts are placed like a jack, that is, the lower part of the other is applied to the collar of one.
In addition to the methods described, there is another good option - to roll textiles into rolls. The step-by-step instructions in this case are as follows:
- Initially, the shirt must be folded according to the principle of "sleeves on the back".
- Then the item is neatly folded from the bottom to the collar.
- It remains to put the resulting roll in the bag with the collar up.
It should be emphasized that this method of packing clothes on the road is more relevant only for blended fabrics or for synthetic polo models. Accordingly, this option is not suitable for natural materials that are highly crumpled.
What to do if the shirt is still wrinkled
Even if shirts are folded correctly, sometimes wrinkles and wrinkles cannot be avoided.
When a person finds himself in such an unpleasant situation, it is important to know how to fix it.
The hotel uses a bathroom or shower for this. It is enough to turn on the hot water tap, plug the drain hole and hang the shirt on the hanger. The door closes tightly. It takes 20 minutes to return the product to the desired shape.
It should be borne in mind that such actions cannot be carried out on linen items. This natural fiber fabric is quite delicate. Some labels have an icon prohibiting the use of high temperatures.
It is necessary to moisten unnecessary folds with water and direct a stream of hot air at them.
Hang the shirt on a hanger, spray the contents and stretch the garment a little. Leave to dry out.
The item is sent to the drum along with pieces of ice. Drying mode is switched on for a quarter of an hour. The steam generated will help smooth the fabric.
People who know how to fold shirts and know what to do if they could not avoid bruises will never find themselves in an awkward situation while traveling, and they will not have to take an iron with them or look for it in a hotel either.
Detailed instructions
Most people find it very easy to fold a shirt correctly, and it is not necessary to have a certain amount of knowledge. You can simply fold an expensive shirt into a chest of drawers or a suitcase for other things, without thinking about such, as it seems to many, trifles. But this is far from the case. If you do not take this procedure seriously and put everything in a pile, you will spend much more time ironing.
Therefore, it is very important to adhere to the rules, and the first is to wait for the fabric to cool down.
There are two most effective ways to fold shirts.
First method:
- first you need to prepare the surface. There should be no stains or sharp points on the work plane. Place an unnecessary clean cloth over the prepared area. After that, fasten all the buttons, turning the front side down and smoothing the folds well with your hands;
- in the next step, you need to find the middle between the sleeve seam and the edge of the collar. With one hand, you should grasp this point, and with the other, the edges of the product at the same level. Along the line that has formed, you need to bend part of the shirt and sleeve so that they are on the back;
- diagonally to the back, we see the sleeve, it must be put in such a way that it is parallel to the folded edge. If you do everything correctly, the fabric around the edge of the sleeve will not wrinkle;
- we do a similar procedure on the opposite side of the shirt. Next, you have to bend the edge along the center of the shoulder, bending the sleeve parallel to the fold. As a result, on the back of the product, both sleeves will lie side by side;
- now the main part should be bent three times. So, you need to bend the lower edge, about half, and then bend the upper part towards the back;
- ready. The shirt is now folded correctly and can be stowed away in the closet.
It is worth noting that shirts folded in this way must be folded right side to each other so that things are protected from folds and deformation.
The second method is simpler, but not entirely standard. It is more suitable for a suitcase if there is very little space in it. To preserve the shirt as much as possible in extreme conditions, it is necessary to roll it into a roll. Also, this method is suitable for items made from natural fabrics that are not so prone to creases. Before twisting the item, it must be folded properly using the first 4 points described above. Next, you need to wrap the product from the bottom up to the collar itself. The roll should not come out too tight, otherwise creases are guaranteed.
How to quickly fold a shirt
All of these methods require the sequential execution of certain actions. The Japanese managed to minimize them, so the fastest folding method is called Japanese.
Algorithm of actions:
- We put the product face up.
- Let's mentally draw two straight lines: one - horizontally, in the middle of a shirt or T-shirt. The second - vertically, from the far shoulder, down.
- We take the shirt at the place where the vertical and horizontal lines intersect. We hold the fabric of the face and back at the same time.
- With the other hand, grab the fabric on the shoulder, from which we drew a vertical line.
- We fold the shirt (T-shirt) without releasing the fabric in the middle of the product. With the hand that held the fabric on the shoulder, we also grab the bottom edge of the product.
- We make a sharp swing, so that the shirt folds in half, and the sleeves are inside.
- At the last stage, we fold the product twice again.
- Only clean, washed and stain-free shirts can be folded.
- It is not recommended to roll up a damp item, it must be completely dried.
- After ironing, the shirts need to be cooled off from the iron. To do this, they are left on a hanger for at least 30 minutes.
- Before folding, fasten all buttons, cuffs, zippers (including pockets).
- When folding the product, they act carefully, making sure that the lines of all the folds are even and clear.
Following these simple rules and some practice will allow you to fold the men's shirts, giving them the look they had when you bought them.
Holidays, vacations, business trips, business trips with accommodation in hotels, hotels have become an integral part of the life of almost every modern person.
Solving business issues requires the parties to be able to make a favorable impression on partners, which is unlikely to be possible for a person who shows up for a meeting in a crumpled shirt.
Therefore, it is important to be able to put clothes in a suitcase like this
, so as not to wrinkle, and upon arrival there was no need to look for an iron. Before you put your shirts in a suitcase, they must be carefully ironed, hung on a chair or on a hanger so that they cool down, dry out (if the iron is with steam)
Before you put your shirts into a suitcase, they must be carefully ironed, hung on a chair or on a hanger so that they cool and dry (if the iron is with steam).
It is important to know that shirts begin to iron, from the collar and cuffs. In this case, all buttons must be unbuttoned.
Then the shelves and back are ironed. Hot, steamed clothes will crumple quickly, so you need to cool them down.
Now let's try to fold the shirt as if it were bought in a store:
-
Button up your shirt
. -
Place it on a table or ironing board with the buttons down.
. -
Outline the middle of the shoulder
, fold the shelf together with the sleeve on the back. Smooth out the folds that appear with your hand, the sleeve lies parallel to the fold line. -
On the other side, do the same.
. -
If the sleeve is long, fold one sleeve in half, then the other
... Spread out the cuffs. -
Fold the folded shirt in half this way.
so that the bottom of the shirt touches the collar and the fold line goes under the fold of the sleeves. -
Smooth out all the folds, turn the product over with buttons and collar up
.Make sure everything is in order in front, the collar is flat. You can put it in a suitcase (briefcase, travel bag). As such, you can store it in a closet.
The first 4 steps are performed as in the previous method.
... Next, the sleeve is folded along the diagonal of the conditional rectangle, obtained after you have folded the shelves.
In this case, the seam of the armhole (connection of the sleeve with the shirt) does not bend. The sleeve is folded three times like an accordion so that the cuff is not under the sleeve, but at the top.
The first cuff points down towards the hem. Place the second so that it is higher than the first and looks at the collar.
Then fold the hem by 5-7 cm and fold the entire shirt in half. Smooth out all wrinkles, folds, and turn the product with the collar up, make sure that the front is neat and beautiful.
Almost all men prefer democratic polo shirts.
, which are sewn mainly from combined, artificial knitted fabrics. They are comfortable, do not restrict movement, do not wrinkle.
A properly sized polo looks elegant on men and can be worn for a business meeting that does not require a dress code. Polo shirts can be folded like classic shirts.
Business style in a man's dress code requires a tie. They are placed in a special case.
It is important to know that it is not recommended to roll the tie with a roll. In this form, it will take up an unreasonable amount of space.
When you tie it, the ends will curl up.
How to fold a long sleeve shirt
Sellers in the store fold men's shirts in these ways, but they can be used by anyone who wants to prevent wrinkles from forming on his things. And they can also be used when you need to beautifully pack a shirt as a gift.
It is necessary to fold things on a clean, flat surface on which you want to lay the fabric. Before using one of the methods, you should fasten all the buttons on the shirt, excluding the cuff buttons.
Method 1:
- Put the shirt face down and fold the lower part up to the shoulder.
- Fold the right sleeve to the left, then fold it three times so that the cuff is on top.
- Fold the left one at the shoulder to the right, then gather three times so that it is parallel to the other, and pull the cuffs to the collar.
- After that, fold the bottom edge over to the collar and turn the shirt face up.
Method 2:
- Flip the shirt face down.
- With one hand, hold the place of contact between the left sleeve and the collar. Align the other hem so that a straight line is formed from the collar downward. Bend the left sleeve along this contour.
- Fold the right side in the same way.
- Then raise the bottom edge to the center, and then to the collar.
- Then turn the thing face up.
The third method is used for polo shirts and synthetic fabrics. Things folded in this way can be put in a backpack, but they must be fixed on all sides so that they do not move.
Method 3:
- First fold the shirt as in the second method - from the first to the third point.
- Then roll up the bottom to the collar. In this case, it is impossible to roll tightly, otherwise folds will form.
- Fold the shirt face up in the suitcase and fix it.
Preparing shirts for folding
If you need to have several shirts on a business trip, then do the preparatory work at home.
1. Inspect carefully to ensure they are clean and free of stains. Especially often such things get dirty in the area of the collar and cuffs.
2. If you notice dirt or odor is not very fresh, then it is better to wash it. If there is a function on the washing machine “without folds”, then you need to use this mode.
3. To make the garment less wrinkled during drying, it is recommended to hang shirts with buttoned buttons.
4. When using the iron, the shirt must be ironed in the steaming mode (if it is made of natural fabrics). Start ironing at the collar. Then the straps, the back are ironed, at the end - the sleeves and cuffs.
5.After ironing, such things should not be folded immediately, as they may still be damp from steam and wrinkle even more. To dry them, it is better to hang them by their hangers on a hanger, while fastening all the buttons.
6. Only after complete drying can you think about how to put such things on the shelf.

How beautiful to wrap a shirt for a gift
The first and most important point is the color of the package. Obviously, for example, a pink bag with flowers will not be suitable for a gift on February 23rd. It is strictly forbidden to use colors that set off each other. This will ruin the idea of the future present. The second aspect is material. It can be plain paper, fabric, and much more. The following types of packaging are most common.
Having the skills to carefully pack a shirt will always come in handy both in everyday life and for decorating gifts for men.
Handwritten package
We draw the diagram onto cardboard, after which we make folds along the dotted lines. Be sure to prepare a drawing in advance. The next step is decorating. It can be a beautiful ribbon, a special pattern, or a “collar”. The end result is an inexpensive and practical product.
Creative packaging raises the festive mood.
For a gift with add-ons
The most creative option is a shirt bag. It's not so hard to make it. Put the prepared gift in the box and wrap it so that the butt seam falls on the longest part. The collar is made of paper of a different color. Strips 5 cm wide are more than enough. Fold the edges and fold in half along the long side. It should be glued so that it protrudes by about one or two centimeters.
You can wrap a shirt in gift paper like this.
Materials and tools
You don't have to look for something special to decorate a gift. Ideally, everything can be done from scrap materials. The main thing is to add a pinch of love and creativity. Most often, corrugated paper, fabrics, decorative nets are used. Felt, transparent film or burlap look no less stylish.
Cool packaging doubles the value of the gift.
Glue, scissors with cardboard will greatly facilitate the packaging process. If accuracy and symmetry are important, then you can also use a ruler, flexible meter, tape measure, etc.
It is always pleasant to receive gifts. And the gift, exquisitely and ingeniously wrapped, will be doubly happy.
