    For years, I have given half-assed gift wrapped gifts to my friends and family. My mom disowned me, I lost my job and my girlfriend left me for a better gift wrapper. That all changed when I saw this video. This has literally changed my life. Since I've been using these gift wrapping hacks, I landed my dream job, got a new mom and my girlfriend begged me to come back to her. I can finally celebrate Christmas with my family for the first time. I couldn't thank you more for this life-changing experience :')

      This is why I'm here. My Christmassing sucked more than ever; bought everything late, rushed the wrapping, and even had to buy some gifts and wrap them in a pinch AFTER the special day itself. So I've vowed that next year I'll be done before everyone in my family. I want to go into December already done with wrapping done like in this vid!

    • @Zazogog16
      @Zazogog16 Год назад

      @@MarcusT86 People always say there is plenty of time left in november, then, why not.. instead of leaving it for december you finish it in november. IThat is what I did this year, I got the presents in november, wrapped them in december and I was all set, no pressure no worries. You should do that next year. The presents are for someone else, but buy them early for yourself so you will not feel bad or guilty

      I usually do my wrapping just before I need to attend xmas. That way I know I wont take forever deciding on which paper, ribbon, etc. I pretty much slap it up in no time. The gifts only get ripped open anyways!

    When I was little and “helping” my parents wrap presents, I suggested they wrap diagonally and asked why they didn’t just do it that way because it made the most sense. They told me it didn’t work that way, AND I BELIEVED THEM.
    My whole life has been a lie.

    Wrapping presents has always been a point of frustration for me. Outside of the onerous task of shopping, there is nothing I dread more than wrapping gifts. Every year, after lengthy attempts to wrap the first present, I get to the point where I am so agitated that I just want to throw up my hands and put my gifts in holiday decorated gift boxes, and call it a day, but I always relent on taking the easy way out because I know the people I give gifts to seem to appreciate the effort that goes into wrapping, almost as much as the gift inside the box. So I really appreciate you showing us these easy methods. I feel so stupid after seeing this video, where you show us how easy it is to wrap presents so easily, and most importantly to me, in such a quick fashion. Its almost like these ways of wrapping presents were so obvious that they were staring me in the face, but I was too obtuse to see it.

    Great hacks! For the TP roll, you CAN wrap it with paper, just glue around the tube AFTER you score it but BEFORE you push the ends in (I’d make sure the wrap is completely adhered to the roll). Once you fold the ends in, the paper will do what the tube does☺️

The wrapping paper is graciously provided by B&N and I always feel horrible throwing away wrapping paper that’s cut too small and doesn’t fit the books. Very excited to try out your first hack this Saturday while wrapping gifts!
