PostWrapping Presents
by Tragic Magic » Tue Dec 16, 2008 9:14 pm

Do you like it? Are you a wrapping connoisseur?

I'm think I'm a good wrapper but I find the actual process of wrapping a bit boring. However, I do feel highly satisfied once I see the finished product. I don't bother with ribbons or anything although sometimes I might stick on one of those ready made bow things but I don't usually bother. I have lots to wrap before Christmas and have just wrapped my work SS present.

I hate wrapping presents with a passion.

I've just had to package up two knackered DVD players to go back to Amazon and that alone has forced me to reach for the beer.

This will surely be the most innane pointless thread ever.

I don't do wrapping paper, or cards, I refuse to spend good money on something thats going straight in the bin!

Usually I keep it in the store brought carrier bag and tape it shut! I am such a tight fisted cock munch when it comes to xmas! and everyone knows and loves it.

I hate wrapping presents because I really suck at it, so I usually go for the gift bag approach.

I'm strawberry floating useless at it. My sister does these perfectly presented parcels with little sparkly bits and ribbons and god knows what, and I usually just print off a few sheets of paper with MERRY strawberry floating CHRISTMAS or whatever repeated all over it and then half-heartedly scrunch it round the thing and slap some sellotape on.

It's not hard really, doesn't take much effort. Doesn't take all that long either.

I'm not the best wrapper, but I tend to like anything to do with Christmas.

It's sort of annoying that it takes a couple of minutes to wrap something but people tear it off in a matter of seconds.

I'm awful at it. I'm ok judging how much i might need, but then it all goes down the pan when it comes to folding the sides together.

Wrapping is easy mayne, I can get them poppin with ribbons and all that mayne.

Only reason I can do it though is working in a Customer Service department that offered gift wrapping.

It's easy though mayne, all you gotta do is fold paper.

I'd like to think I was pretty awesome at wrapping presents... though that only counts for things that have straight edges.
Anything with bumps, or curves and it all goes to pot.

I was thinking of doing this this year:

Firebox's "Crap Wrap" Gift wrapping

But I didn't.
