Are you all about keeping it simple or do you go all out, handmade wrapping paper, bows and string etc?
I co ordinate my wrapping paper to the same kinda colours (this year its silver/white and blues/purples)
all gifts for one person are in the same paper so easily identifiable..
and lifes too short for bows, tags and string that you curl with scissors  |

I'm all about getting Sellotape stuck to everything except the present. Cutting the paper too small. Losing the pen,scissors,tape at least 10 times and forgetting what I've wrapped as I stick the label on |

i either cut the paper way to big or make it too small then have to use an off cut to patch it up lol
i get loads of sellotape ready before i start and ive mastered the glide technique rather than cutting the paper all jaggedy |

"I get things gift wrapped. "
when i eventually collected the stash of stuff id bought from my grandmas house i felt defeated by the huge task ahead of me,, took me 5 hours to crack on and wrap that lot.. ive been shopping 3 time since then and have about 6 carrier bags of gifts still to go..
if there was a gift wrap business id gladly pay |

No time for faffing around. So I bought drawstring gift bags in various sizes. The drawstrings are proper ribbons and each comes with a gift tag. Pop prezzie in, tie, write tag, next. .. |

But they're not like the paper ones. These are like that shiney foil like wrapping and they close up with a drawstring so you can't see into them. |
