How do you feel about wrapping?

I mean do you like to wrap the gifts or not? I don't like it all that much. It can be a "chore". I should do the "bag" thing but it really is more fun to tear into the paper. Do you get fancy/cute with your packages or keep it basic Xmastree ?

I absolutely loooooooooooooooove to wrap presents. I love making the bows and adding fancy schmancy decorations to them.
I wrap every year at the mall with the Girl Guides for those who are wrapping challenged - and those last minute shoppers who spend all of 30 seconds picking out a gift and have us wrap it and make up the gift tag. How humdrum is that? Sort of takes the love out of giving gifts.

You make your own bows!!! Oh my goodness, I am going to go hide my bag of stick on bows! Naw I do tie them up with curling ribbon. And I do wrap them myself. I guess I am not hopeless!

Dearest Cowntess,

I bought a bow maker at Michaels a few months ago. It took a little practice to do it, and to understand the directions, but once I had the right ribbon, my bows turn out great.

I have no doubt I could make my own bows but.... see I don't really like to wrap the gifts. I know, I know I should be flogged and sent to the tower. Now ask me if I like to GET pretty packages. You bet I do.

Shame on me, Out to the far back pasture I go!

I love to wrap. But only if I can do it without distractions. For everyone elses gifts we sit in the living room and my kids help. The don't always look perfect, but they are wrapped with the enthusiasm and love of the kids, so that is far better! For the kids and hubby, I wrap locked in the tower for hours! The are the pretty ones. My gifts, well, hubby takes a whole roll of wrapping paper, winds it around the gift, and slaps some tape on there, then folds the ends over and tapes them. Not pretty, but quite a feat to tear into to!
