No tape? Do like my fiancé and use tin foil... I wish I was joking, under our tree looks like its scared of 5G 🙄😂
Oh god I laughed way too much 😂😂😂😂😂
Best comment! 🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Lol #truewords 😉😂😂😂❤️
But before I got into DIYs, and posting them hey I loved the tinfoil wrapping and still do in a little bit of a different way lol so I like to crinkle it up first then use it to wrap :) What you said is so true and cute tho!! With that said, we are safe from Aliens 👽 😇😉 😂 throughout the holidays 🎄🎄:)
My “hack” is letting the cat sit DIRECTLY on the wrapping paper whilst I’m in the middle of measuring paper, and then just using her to hold my place/be an anchor because she wouldn’t be bothered to move anyway.
Yup. 💯💯 totally agree
This is not where I thought this comment was going lmao ( I thought your cat was going to use her nails to cut the wrapping paper XD)!
100th like
My mom wraps all of our presents in a specific wrapping paper for each kid. So we can easily pass out everyone's without needing labels.
My mom does too! I’ve even done it for my boys and made it where the gifts we got for both of them we just cover half in ones paper and half in the other. We normally do one or two gifts each then one or two for both of them.
Yup !!! Same, also you get random boxes from around the house 😂 can’t tell you how many times I got gifts in Kuerig K-Cup boxes 😂
that’s what my family does too!!
sameeee !!
This is what we used to do growing up, since apparently I asked mom why Santa had her handwriting 😂😂😂
My wrapping hack is saying “they’re gonna just rip it open anyway so it’s good enough”😂😂
My 3yo doesn't want to rip the paper so she gets me to carefully open them for her, like she's a grandma who wants to save & reuse the paper 😂
Or just throw everything in a bag lol

"Is that an electrical cord?" 🤣 mom to mom that killed me LOL
I hid almost every cord in the house just because of my kids and now i don't know where i hid them and i can't plug in the TV with (how my daughter says) mommy and daddy channels so we pretty much spend our days watching Mickey mouse.🤣
When you said “I cant pour milk” I instantly thought about Joey’s milk commercial XD
🤣 that's what I thought
Yes! Friends ❤️❤️❤️
Omg I watched Friends right before this video 😂
Came here to see how many other people though of that exact thing! Lol!
“Now I can have milk everyday.”
Same
I definitely use my flat iron to iron my clothes sometimes in the morning because it’s already hot 😂
Totally me. I turn it off and use it on the collar or those kind of small parts, so easy !
My mom and her mom always use boxes and bags for gifts. They save them and then next year you give them back to each other XD repeat until the bag falls apart lol
Great idea 💡
My SO and their family does too! We keep reusing as much as possible just to see what holds up lol 😂 it's really remarkable how long dollar tree bags last! I would say some have lasted 6 years!🥰 Last year we didn't exchange bc I'm high risk but I hope this year I get the OK from my drs to celebrate.❤️
I’ve never thought about wearing a Christmas hat to hide my greasy hair! 😱 #RachelHacks
My life is complete now.
Omg, I'm doing this tomorrow
Not? Every dang year when I worked in daycare. Bad hair day, santa hat on!
Right?!?! Now it's not gross, I'm being festive! LOL
So I’m watching all this and all I’m shocked by is when you said Julia was SEVEN!?!? Did not know I have been watching you for that long!
I like how you asked if I have wrapped my gifts yet. Assuming that I have already bought them. I don't think so
Same for me. And my country is in complete lockdown now. You can only buy food. Well, I guess it's spaghetti for everyone this year - wrapped in newspaper pages! 🤣
Can we all just stop and applaud for the amazing editing you do!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
She got a new editor and I think she's amazing 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Rachael is an amazing editor too though!
@@KaswekaKayonde yeah but she puts her thoughts in
The best part of this video is that you struggled. Perfect is boring - I loved this!
Rachel does not get enough credit for her comedy chops. I'm only a few minutes in and already the electrical cord and the milk jokes have me sent.
I like to wrap odd-shaped gifts into other shapes to really throw people off. I wrapped a gift into the shape of a swan this year.
The effort level lol
@@janani1826 I'm an art student, so it's just a low-key flex on my friends and family. 😂
My sister got me a metal life-sized pheasant statue 7 years ago (and he is still one of my most prized possessions, and he joined my wedding 😂), and wrapped him into the shape of a chair with cardboard boxes to throw me off... it worked!
@@PhiliH88 that is such a good Christmas story. 😂
Dad staples the gifts 😆 he’s a genius!
Its become tradition now. I will RIOT if he doesn't staple my ribbon on or wear his technicolour 80s Christmas sweater. RIOT I TELL YOU
To be fair I love to staple those plastic mailing bags when I return clothes that I shopped online. Nobody has the nerve to tape a ripped open plastic bag. At least I don't. 😅
Tip for the "shhhhh" you were talking about use the excess roll as a guide when you slide your scissors 😀 makes cutting easy
Make sure to hold the rest of the roll of paper and give a little tension!
I used to pre fold and cut to guide the cut. Also, anyone can do the swooosh, you just need very sharp scissors so the paper does not rip.
@@vanelaguereja i do the same but I use a penknife instead of scissors for the swoosh to work for me.. 🤭
@@vanelaguereja must definitely try this
@@d_m5582 must give that a go too
Ohhhhh, SO THIS is why Rachh is wrapping her presents earlyyy. I was so confused with the Instagram story😂😂
Rachel! Look for glitter washi tape! Much easier than the glitter on double stick tape 😊
It’s still a good idea if you don’t have any and want to add something a little extra
Get wrapping paper with a grid on the inside! It's so useful!
If you try the wrapping paper cutter going down (not up), that may work better... at least it works for me that way!
(Edit: I’m left handed - for any lefties out there!)
Yeah, and it needs to go a bit faster. Just a bit more confidently
I’d recommend spray mod podge instead of hairspray for the glitter, you can get it at Walmart and other retail stores. 🤍
That bag is perfectly done!! We have a wrapping tip for you and your followers. We host a “girls night wrapping party”. My daughters, a couple friends , and even a neighbor, come to our house with gifts to be wrapped, wine, snacks and (you guessed it) plenty of tape! I usually start buying paper right after holidays and get a good stock built up. Another tip we started is color coding the gifts. Each person has a specific paper/color. I keep a swatch of each with that persons name on it hidden away. My daughters are in their 20’s now and don’t need to do this little thing as much, but it’s all about traditions. Like opening the stockings first, or opening gifts to each other on Christmas Eve and gifts from Saints on Christmas morning. Happy holidays!
“Shhhh, have to be quiet in case it changes its mind” totally spit out my coffee.
That tape dispenser seems like such a great way to stop misplacing my tape, its too bad I just wrap my presents sitting on the floor and therefore its not useful for me 😂
Clip it to a book to hold in place?
Becoming Unbroken that is actually a great idea!
"I didnt cut this off the Christmas tree, its off something else, I ripped it off" 😂😂😂
Ha! Of course, I already wrapped everything. I'm going to use some of these for future presents!
I always wrap Christmas Eve, has become almost a tradition to do that. Lock myself in the kitchen with some hot chocolate, christmas tunes and some mince pies and leftover biscuits while the kids are in bed 😊
That sounds so peaceful, I love this!
Rachel doing the pockets hack is me wrapping any present. I think it looks great and then I keep moving it and finagling it around and then the paper gets all creased then I rage, and then I finally finish. I am also like, OMG, why can I never do it right??!!!??
How could I forget. The burst of happiness when you finally think you have it/do have it. Best feeling!!
Rachel, you are so courageous! Thank God for gift bags!!😂😂😂 Glitter gets EVERYWHERE!!
Rachel I just wanted to say I love your videos! Yesterday I was no feeling well at all, and I just watched your videos and it made me so happy! Thank you for just being yourself🥰💕💕 happy holidays!!
Omg we have the same wrapping paper. Its so pretty. I tied all my gifts with a lovely sheer red ribbon as well with a small gold border. They are gorgeous 😍
I don’t know why but I freaking love wrapping Xmas presents
I love it until about five gifts in because I get that one perfect gift wrapped then it's just a steady decline in quality with each gift I wrap.
I absolutely love the wrapping hack with the pockets! Gonna try for sure. I think it will be great to put pics of the kiddos in for the grandparents.
I’m one of the few people who enjoys wrapping gifts even though I don’t do anything fancy, I procrastinate doing it. I find it so satisfying so what about a livestream where we all get together and wrap gifts lol 😂 I’d so be there
I literally LOVE your & Christopher’s relationship so much! 😍
This has to be, hands down, the most hilarious video you have ever made!! 😂 😂 ️
I do the wrapping paper swooshing with scissors there is definitely a trick to it. You need some good scissors (I like the scotch brand ones that come in a three pack) then measure out the paper open the scissors cut so the scissors are about half way closed and glide away from you (sometimes it takes a couple tries to get the scissors in the right position when that happens I just do another half cut and try again) when you get towards the end of the paper close the scissors the rest of the way so that you don't get a tear at the end
4:11 5:40 Use gift wrap to make a bag poke two holes & use a ribbon to secure it into a handle & bow
Use tape to make designs & put glitter on top then spray w/ hair spray to prevent fallout
Flat iron ribbons to straighten them out
Presents for our kids and my husband were wrapped by Dec 13th this year but they're all either books or Lego or for hubby, video games - easy shapes to wrap and any crafty ideas wouldn't be noticed let alone appreciated lol. I deliberately picked paper that says "No peeking til Dec 25". I've been watching them almost salivate over them for the past week and still a week to go. It is satisfying - good motivation to wrap them early.
I have never been able to do the "swoosh" either until this year i happened to buy some really thick paper (really nice quality but really inexpensive from Hobby Lobby) and it actually works! So I think the secret to the swoosh if you don't have magic powers is thicker paper! :)
Omg Julia is 7!! That’s crazy how fast she’s growing up
Way to commit to a project Rachel. That pocket wrapping tho. So pretty!
the first one with the bag, i do for years. it is so good.
the trick to the SWOOSH is to get a good crease going where you want to cut the paper and then taking a good knife or opening a pair of scissors and inserting the blade into the fold. That was how I was taught to wrap when I was young!
The glitter and double sided tape was definitely my favorite hack. Thanks Rachel ☺️
My luck... i just finished wrapping my presents like a couple of MINUTES ago 🙄😂
I wrapped mine a couple of days ago 🤦🏼♀️ lol
Yeah... Im about to re-wrap some of mine lol
I'm wrapping presents as they are delivered in mail. Just ran out of paper as the last gift arrived and my parents still need to buy a few more gifts along with more paper...
I finished wrapping all of the presents a two weeks ago.
From forgetting words to not being able to do anything in a straight line and questionable ideas-Rachel's so relatable!
I've been loving these holiday videos! Thanks for the ideas!
Almost done wrapping and I tried the gift bag thing. Super easy. Want to do the double stick tape and glitter. That was super cute
I just started watching your videos and I’m already hooked lol
I like the wrapping hacks because anyone who has had to do hospital corners on a bed will find these super easy.
I binge watched all of Jessica's videos on tiktok yesterday!!!!! She is wonderful!!! Everyone should follow her!!! So many good tips!!! Happy Holidays friends 🎉
My cousin and I are the Queens of procrastination, we usually wrap the night before in a frenzied panic lol.
We do the flat iron hack with our horse show ribbons too! It’s great.
I'm waiting for QVC to send me these decorative bags I can throw everything in!
I really needed this the other day. Hate wrapping awkward presents 🤦♀️ I just throw them in a cardboard box that's laying around
Shhh, we have to be quiet in case it hears. I'm dying!! Lol, hilarious Rachel, love this video! And yes I think you missed your calling. 😊
I love those candle holders in the background
I have Zero patience when it comes to wrapping presents 🎁 I do love the idea of pretty wrapping I just get so aggravated when trying to do something like these. The odd shape items into a bag is awesome!
My hack to wrapping.... save a bunch of square boxes 📦 for awkward shaped items!! Lol. Not a hack but it works!!
My husband keeps promising to tidy up our dining room table so I can wrap the presents but he hasn't done it yet. It's been his work from home desk so it's covered with all his stuff 😂
Wrap the gifts over his stuff and do the glitter hack 😂😂
@@lianaangelucci 'Oh sorry honey, I didn't realise the glitter would go all over your papers & work laptop!' 😈😂
I can do the shhh thing, I can’t do it in a straight line but I can do it 😂
Same
For real! It’s like my hand has a blood alcohol level of 0.10%
Them wrapping papper bags are really cute im a try it!! I think your adorable. Love watching these
I am addicted to these wrapping videos!!!
That gift wrap cutter is the best!! It definitely takes time to work it properly and depending on the thickness of the paper it can be hard to use, but I think it was 100% worth purchasing! So much better than scissors!
All my gifts are wrapped already 😂 I wrap as I purchase because I can’t wait! It makes Christmas Eve much more enjoyable because everything is done already
I just love your videos, your sense of humor is everything ❤
i worked in a toy shop when i was in highschool. i feel like i've wrapped everything possible. my least favorite to wrap were soccer balls. a surprisingly common request.
Damn i thought i was subbed but you just keep coming up bc i like everyone of your videos lol I’m subbed now for sure
Use gift wrap to make a bag poke two holes & use a ribbon to secure it into a handle & bow

“ I can’t pour milk!” That made me laugh. Id love to have you as a friend. You rock!
I had to take a moment to process that IT IS DECEMBER AGAIN(ALREADY) because I remember that magazine hack and how much I loved it like yesterday.
Same here. I was so confused. Thought that other video was put up in June or something like that. 😅
I love your videos so much, you’re so naturally funny😂
Great timing on this video 🙏🏻 I'm wrapping most of my gifts tonight, maybe I'll try some of these hacks ✨
I love the pocket wrapping idea. Great place to add a gift card along with the present. Thanks. 🎄🎁♥️
I actually used one of your hacks for presents this year, turning the square diagonal when you haven't cut enough! Love it!
This year I was actually done by December 1st. Tree up shopping and wrapping was done. I'm actually able to relax and enjoy the hoilday this year. Have a Merry Christmas you and your family. 🎅🎅🎅
I love that you wrap like I do. I care a lot in the beginning, then it's more like "this is fine! Just cover it up."
1. Just buy a gift bag.. ?
2. ADORABLE! but so much work. Adorable though.
3. Reminds me of folding notes that we used to pass around in class!
4. Simple, i love it!
5. Why didn't I think of that?!
Wrapping gifts tomorrow 🎁!!! So excited for this ❤️❤️❤️
Omg the stapling story of your dad made my day 😂
I am one of the people that goes shhhh, I feel special now thank you. Btw its all about the paper and the scissors
I use the bag wrapping hack quite often actually. I want to try the little pockets of the wrapping. That was cute!
I got the same wrapping paper cutter and I absolutely love mine! It never tears my paper and it gives that ever loved swoosh
The second wrapping style is actually a popular Japanese style of wrapping. I’ve been doing it for years. There’s some other styles as well that are very beautiful as well. I didn’t use it this year because we all had covid and we didn’t wrap anything lol we just brought it out on Christmas morning then went back to sleep 😴
Your makeup is spot on! I think you are so pretty because you have a great personality, but your eyes look amazing in this video. Thanks for the hacks. I am still going to be wrapping on the 24th! 😆
I could actually see myself doing the bag wrapping ❣️🥰
I hope you and your family are having a great week we have 13 inches of snow lol
26in here in central NY
Omg share the snow !! We are having a weird winter here in North Idaho
For everyone going through a hard time here is a quick verse *the pain you have been feeling now can’t compare to the joy that is coming* 💗❤️❤️❤️
I missed this one because I'm usually on your other channel - you crack me up!!
I love the gift wrap cutter from Scotch!
I didn't even realise this video is on Rachel loves and not Rachel loves life... Love all your videos, im always excited❤️❤️
Love it❤! Thanks you for the ideas! I going to wrap tomorrow😅
We use glitter glue to design some gifts. My grandma saves the designs from the kids that are one the Christmas paper and has a giant picture frame full.
I usually wait til the last minute and completely stress over it, but surprisingly I'm already finished wrapping. Definitely gonna use the gift bag out of paper hack next year because I HATE having to go off my color scheme.
So excited for this!
So early today😍😍 love love love your videos btw❤️❤️ lots of love to the gorgeous Luke💖
Momma of 17 years here, with 7 kiddos.... this is the first year I am completely done shopping, AND already started wrapping🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 I am super proud of me! *I will not be a zombie on Christmas Day. I will not be a zombie on Christmas Day. I will not be a zombie on Christmas Day!!* I have used the gift bag back, and I love it! It saves so much, on having to buy gift bags! I am interested in trying some of the others though!
"Is that an electrical cord.." That actually made me laugh!! 😂😂
This is the first time I'm watching one of your videos and I LOVE YOUR KITCHEN
