Mothers and sisters do the wrapping! The only present I have to wrap this year is my sisters. I couldn't even manage it for her birthday, I wrapped it in a t-shirt and then demanded the t-shirt back when she'd unwrapped it.

The same sister that went and bought all of your Christmas presents for you?
Fez of Mahrez Posted 24 December 2007 Author Posted 24 December 2007 What are you trying to wrap? Sweets in a ridiculous-shaped jar. A t-shirt. A few of those trendy girls cap things. A scarf. Next year everybody is getting something cube-shaped. Mothers and sisters do the wrapping!The only present I have to wrap this year is my sisters. I couldn't even manage it for her birthday, I wrapped it in a t-shirt and then demanded the t-shirt back when she'd unwrapped it. I haven't got any sisters and my mum has broken her foot accidentally on purpose so she doesn't have to do Christmas dinner and is refusing to partake in any preparations because "it hurts".

Fez of Mahrez Posted 24 December 2007 Author Posted 24 December 2007 Yes, my expertise lies in cuboids. As such I am unable to help.UNLESS! You buy small boxes for everything and BINGO problem solved... It's Christmas Eve. I'm not going anywhere. I might just stick them all in a House of Fraser bag and write "Family" on a gift tag.
Alexikokopops Posted 24 December 2007 Posted 24 December 2007 The same sister that went and bought all of your Christmas presents for you? Yep. My family know their place.
davieG Posted 24 December 2007 Posted 24 December 2007 Gift bags are the answer! Open them up, pop in the present, write on the tag - Job Done. And you can get all holier by saying they are recyclable/useable.

Webbo Posted 24 December 2007 Posted 24 December 2007 I always use my advanced paper hanging skills to wrap all our presents.
Hullfox Posted 24 December 2007 Posted 24 December 2007 So who are the other two wise men? More importantly, where's the virgin?
AoWW Posted 24 December 2007 Posted 24 December 2007 You're a woman.How do you wrap Christmas presents without them looking like they've been involved in a civil war with an army of sellotape amid tense wrapping paper-based crisis talks? Glad you'd noticed! And I like how that qualifies me as a gift-wrapping expert. Put as much as poss into boxes, much easier to wrap. Get the store to do it for you when you buy it. Gift bags - davieG is a wise man. Minimal use of sellotape but careful - and neat - folding. Make sure your bit of paper is big enough - gaps ain't good! Stick a posh bow or ribbon thingy on it - it'll hide a multitude of sins. DO NOT stick em in a carrier bag tho!!!
Simi Posted 24 December 2007 Posted 24 December 2007 You're a woman.How do you wrap Christmas presents without them looking like they've been involved in a civil war with an army of sellotape amid tense wrapping paper-based crisis talks? Fez. Two words. GIFT BAGS.
Fez of Mahrez Posted 24 December 2007 Author Posted 24 December 2007 Fez. Two words.GIFT BAGS. I can't think about tits now! I've got presents to wrap!
Simi Posted 24 December 2007 Posted 24 December 2007 I can't think about tits now! I've got presents to wrap! You kill me.
Simi Posted 24 December 2007 Posted 24 December 2007 I haven't got any sisters and my mum has broken her foot accidentally on purpose so she doesn't have to do Christmas dinner and is refusing to partake in any preparations because "it hurts". Reminded me of Lee Evans.
City Fan Posted 24 December 2007 Posted 24 December 2007 I only buy things for people on the basis that its easy to wrap. If it looks hard to wrap they aint having it!
