    Question Anybody else suck at wrapping Christmas gifts?

    I'm really horrible at it...I guess its the "thought that counts".

    I’m pretty good, but man I loathe doing it. After about 2 presents the slop starts getting there.

    I remember when they used to have Charity gift wrap stations at the mall....Those were awesome..
    Trash bags work great...I just throw a ribbon on top..

    Go to a fabric store.
    Buy 2 yards of everything cheap.(which is a ton)
    Go to Micheals or other craft store, buy ribbon and bows.

    In and out for less than $20.00.

    and people will be amazed at your craftiness.

    Teach a man to fish, he will complain that you stole his fishing spot.
