## Create a gift-wrap product

{% hint style="success" %}
**Steps:**

1. From your Shopify admin, go to **Products.**
2. Click **Add product**.
3. Create a gift-wrap product [just as you would create any other product.](https://help.shopify.com/manual/products/add-update-products)
4. Make the necessary changes and click **Save**.
   {% endhint %}

* You can use the product description section to explain what materials will be used to gift-wrap the items (for example, glossy papers, recycled materials, etc.)
* Give your gift-wrap product the price that you want to charge for the service. If you want  to provide the gift-wrapping service for free, simply set the price of your gift-wrap product to be `0`.
* You can upload an image of the product to illustrate to customers what a gift-wrapped order will look like.
* For customers choosing this gift-wrapping service, you can charge on a per-product basis by setting the product price.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Make sure your gift-wrap product includes inventory, or else adjust the settings so that Shopify doesn't track inventory for the gift-wrap product.&#x20;

If your store has multiple locations, then uncheck **Track quantity** to prevent Shopify from tracking inventory for the gift-wrap product.
{% endhint %}

## Create a menu

Next, create a menu that points to your gift-wrap product.

{% hint style="success" %}
**Steps:**

1. From your Shopify admin, go to [**Online Store** > **Navigation**](https://www.shopify.com/admin/menus).
2. Click **Add menu**.
3. Name your menu **`Gift wrapping`**, so that the handle that's assigned to the menu is **`gift-wrapping`**.
4. Add the gift-wrap product to the menu:
   1. Click **Add menu item**, and then enter a **Name** for the link to the gift-wrap product.
   2. In the **Link** field, select **Products**, and then select the gift-wrap product from the drop-down menu.
