Coming up short on wrapping paper while in the middle of wrapping a Christmas gift can be devastating, but a now-viral TikTok video may reveal a hack you never knew you needed.
The video, which was also re-shared on Twitter, shows a woman’s trick for wrapping gifts in the event that one’s wrapping paper ends up “too short.”

While Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas” plays in the background, TikTok user @mrs_dee_penda demonstrates her gift wrapping hack using a small box.
Rather than folding the wrapping paper in simple squares, the usual way people tend to wrap boxes, the woman instead folds the paper using triangular creases.

“WHAT?!? My life is a lie,” another person tweeted.
But apparently the so-called hack was nothing new for some gift wrappers.
“I thought that's how everybody wraps tiny boxes,” one person commented.
Another warned, "Never saw a video of this just been doing it forever y’all need some IQ tests."
