I have to give this tie as a gift to a professional associate. This tie didn’t come in a box. How do I gift wrap a tie?. Should I just place it in one of those gift bags and top fill it with confetti or just thin color sheets?. Wouldn’t that be a bit gay?. Please help out this idiot. 
take an old shoe box...fill it with confetti or cloth or anything...and put the tie on top
why dont u buy him one that comes in box????
they even have the knot instruction in there for ppl like me who will never learn to do the knot.... :p

r u implying funguy is a size 5?
This one is a bit unique and special. It can not be bought from regular outlets. One has to be a member of the association. Don't tell me what to buy but tell me how to box it.
Shoe box?. are you serious?.
Fungi, the problem seem to be deeper than just the choice of the wrap. First you need to get over of looking everything in a "does it look it gay or not" sort of way. Only after that you'll find out that it doesn't really matter how the tie is wrapped as long as you use your senses.
Roman, thanks for the 'gay reply'.
I wasn't expecting anything less from you anyway. Go play with your tie. Jaidee naa howay tey.
Well there is always the lunch box; it might be a bit too obvious if you tried to drop it in his wine glass. 
Just get a gift box and get it wrapped in a not-so girly wrapping paper. You can then put that in a gift bag or leave it as is. Coloured tissue in your gift bag is always a good idea.
Here is something for ideas:

what kind of low life buys a tie without a proper handsome carrying case. If I was a receipient, I would throw it back at you and then spit in your general direction.

Would that be a showering spit or hitting like a bullet?
Dirty bird!!!
Re: Tie in a box
isn’t that what u want?
tie’s for Guy’s 
why dont you just buy some cufflinks or hankerchiefs?? 
whats wrong with a nice pen etc?? or vouchers at a place they like shopping??
Seeing as Funguy has already bought the tie I think it's a little late in the day for him to buy something thats easier to wrap.
Funguy, just get a giftbox and buy something better next time.
Very funny, you guys. This is the last time I am assking you for any help. I thought at least the girls would come up with decent ideas. But alas! I am the idiot here, really for even thinking you lot would be of any help. And mind fking you, the tie is not some cheap ass off the K-mart rack. It is a very prestigious tie and ONLY given to the accomplished in it's field.
But what would you all know. Thanks but no thanks. I have decided what I am gonna do. I will make a single knot and present it to him while helping him put it on. Just like the Chief of Army Staff puts a medal around a soldier's neck.
I feel like COAS today.
I think most people are just shocked that as a desi you are going against our long standing tradition of giving someone a present wrapped in something other than a used drugstore plastic bag. You must stop these fancy ideas of yours.
After all, it's whats inside that counts.
You can always put it in one of those gift bags, their easy to find. Boarders book store has really unqiue ones, or anywhere at a mall, also make sure you get some of that thin tissue paper. Good luck :)

True but only if the inside can stand up to what others have presented before you. And in this case, I don't want to stand out. I want to remain inside.
Ah I see........you're not quite ready to come out just yet. Say no more.
