First off, please don't hate, I'm absolutely horrible at this stuff.

Hey guys, I'm looking for some ideas on how I should wrap/box/etc a Secret Santa present. It's for a girl in my anatomy class that I have a small crush on lol. Basically, everyone knows who is getting who what, so anonymity really isn't a factor in this. We're all around 16 too, if that matters. Anyways, I want some creative/cute ideas on how I should wrap/box a present, and what else I should get. I have until Tuesday next week to have everything together. All she said she wanted was KitKats and Gift Cards, I have both of which, but I wanted to maybe get one more thing, but I wanted some ideas.

Originally, I was thinking of making a candy box (my best friend's idea), but it turned out to be an atrocity, and I hated it. So now I'm back to square one.

Limitations: As a class, we all agreed that we all wouldn't go over $20 per person. I'm willing to go over that, maybe by $15-20.

What I have so far:
4 Jumbo Kit Kats (originally for the candy box)
12 Green Tea Kit Kats (we joke around about being Asian with each other, so I wanted to get something Japanese since she's Japanese)
3 iTunes Gift Cards

Again, please don't make fun of me, I am absolutely horrible when it comes to creativity.

If you like her, does she like jewelry? if she does, i would recommend getting a nice bracelet or necklace if you have the money.
To wrap it, i would put 6 of the green tea kitkats on the bottom, then another 4 regular ones on top of that, then 2 green tea kitkats on top of that, then put the giftcards, then put the last kitkats on top.
Then maybe put the necklace on top.
If you know her favorite color, try to find wrapping paper like that and use that. Hope i helped.

Honestly, yes I would get jewelry or something, but the whole class set a limit on how much we should all spend, and we're pretty much sticking to it, I kinda do like the pyramid idea that you have though.

Definitely not jewelry, because cheap jewelry is shit. How about clothes or a teddy? Girls often like warm clothes, especially at winter, so like, maybe a nice matching set of gloves and a scarf or something? If there's anything she's into, maybe you could get her a plush toy. For example, a Breaking Bad plush toy i she's into BB. You can also get Angry bird plush toys and what not.

As for wrapping it, I'd get a nice box, not a cardboard box, an actual box for presents, like this inda thing;

Place all the presents in a box like that, pack it nicely and then wrap it with wrapping paper. Put that wrapped box in a sightly bigger box and then wrap that box, finish it off with a bow on top and then put it in a gift bag. Tape the handles of the gift bag together and tape another bow to the handles of the gift bag.
