Are you wrapping gifts this holiday season?
Will your significant other person be wrapping them with you?
Here are some tips for just such an occasion:
- set the mood,
- put on some happy holiday music
- start a fire*
- pour a glass of something you love - wine, a cold lager, eggnog... - create some space
- clear off the kitchen or dining table
- use the chairs to hold unwrapped gifts or supplies
and most importantly - duplicate your wrapping supplies,
this will make for a truly harmonious wrapping experience.
- 2 pairs of scissors
- 2 rolls of tape
*for safety weese suggests only starting fires if you have a fireplace or wood burning stove.

We prefer to wrap on the living room floor. That way the pups can get in on the action too! :)
Happy holidays, my friend. Be safe!
The fire tip is certainly one of your most useful ones. :)
Happy holidays!
You mean starting a fire made from leftover paper and tape under the partner who won't share her scissors is not a good idea? Huh.
I think you should have 4 pairs of scissors and 4 rolls of tape, that way, when a pair of scissors and a roll or two of tape disappear (even though they're right in front of your face) you'll have a extras!
The duplicate thing would be essential. It would also be helpful if Bing would help wrap, which she doesn't....not that I am bitter or anything.
Really. I'll just make a little sign and tape it to her back when I hug her.
A green tip I gleaned from my annoying Honda enewsletter...
Put all used holiday wrappings in a lawn and leaf bag and store for use as packing material for any items shipped in the coming year.
I think I like that one but it will require eb approval.
Happies of holidays to you and yours.
Oh crap!!! The tape!!!! thanks for the tips (and reminder)
happy holidays!
