wraps up

Brings to close

Wraps up means to bring something to a conclusion or finish it off: Let's wrap up this meeting.

It can also mean to bundle something by enclosing it in paper or fabric: She wrapped up the gift.

To be wrapped up in something is to be deeply absorbed or involved: He's completely wrapped up in his work.
