Abstract

Abstract A nest of folds of decorative wrapping paper. Each fold includes at least one sheet of wrapping paper which has one printed decorative surface and one unprinted surface. A first fold of paper is creased longitudinally into a flat V-shaped configuration having two panels of approximately equal width. A second fold of paper is creased longitudinally into a flat Z-shaped configuration having three panels. These three panels include a center panel having the same width as a panel of the first fold and two side panels, one of which is one-third and the other of which is two-thirds as wide as the center panel. A third panel is creased in the same configuration as the second fold. The nest is assembled with the center panels of the folds superimposed upon one another the two-thirds width side panels being positioned immediately outwardly of the center panels on opposite sides of the nest, and the one-third width side panels positioned immediately outward of the two-thirds width side panels on opposite sides of the nest. The assembled folds of the nest being folded in half longitudinally about a laterally extending crease line to form a folded nest in which the outer face on each side presents a shingled appearance in which one-third of each fold is visible.
