I was walking by a tuxedo rental store at the mall and saw all of the different styles of tuxes shown on the wall. I was inspired to create a gift box design perfect for a groom or groomsmen using a tuxedo as the presentation.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>It is easy to create this look and it will work with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nashvillewraps.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Nashville Wraps<\/a> large selection of black boxes. The Pearl Stripe Gift Wrap looks like an expensive tuxedo shirt and the Double Faced Satin Ribbon gives the bow tie a crisp and classic style. I finished the design with black shiny beads to simulate buttons. I have created the Black Tie gift design so any of these styles shown can be reused after the gift is opened \u2014 this also allows for the gift wrapping to be in done in advance. They will dazzle any wedding party or add sophistication to a black tie event.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11199 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nashvillewraps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Materials.jpg\" alt=\"Materials\" width=\"600\" height=\"518\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nashvillewraps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Materials.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.nashvillewraps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Materials-300x259.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nashvillewraps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Materials-24x21.jpg 24w, https:\/\/www.nashvillewraps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Materials-36x31.jpg 36w, https:\/\/www.nashvillewraps.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Materials-48x41.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Materials Used <\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a title=\"Pearl Stripe Gift Wrap\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nashvillewraps.com\/gift-wrap\/wedding-wrapping-paper\/p-95\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pearl Stripe Gift Wrap<\/a><\/li>\n<li>5\/8\u201d Black Double Faced Satin Ribbon<\/li>\n<li>Round Black Beads (found at your local craft store)<\/li>\n<li>Craft Glue<\/li>\n<li>Glue Stick<\/li>\n<li><a title=\"Black Jewelry Boxes\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nashvillewraps.com\/boxes\/black-boxes\/p-325\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Black Jewelry Boxes<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Black Gloss Gift Boxes<\/li>\n<li>Black Gloss Shopping Bags<\/li>\n<li>Black Paper Pillow Boxes<\/li>\n<li><a title=\"Black Tissue Paper\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nashvillewraps.com\/tissue-paper\/color-tissue-paper\/mc-16\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Black Tissue Paper<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"White Tissue Paper\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nashvillewraps.com\/tissue-paper\/white-tissue-paper\/p-66\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">White Tissue Paper<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>How to Create a Bow Tie<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This bow tie design will work on any size of the Nashville Wraps black boxes, gift bags or pillow boxes for the Black Tie design.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\">1.
