Hi all
Just curious, do you wrap or not?
Do you wrap main present/s/stocking fillers?
Or not wrap anything?

:T Yay, I'm first. I wrap everything. Who wants to receive a present and know what it is straight away? Even the stocking ones get wrapped as my children love the excitement of wondering what it is.Mortgage: Was: £154,495 Oct 2039 Now: £81,279.78 May 2037Swagbucks ~ £180 (2024 ~ £395)Surveys ~ £195.89 (2024 ~ £280.14)Make £2025 in 2025 #5 ~ £1,406.55 ~ (2024 ~ £2,561.04)0

Usually still wrapping at midnight...Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed.
If you quote me, don't forget the capital 'M'

I wrap everything but I have a friend who wraps nothing and takes everything out of its boxes etc, ready to play with ... strange I know and I've told her so, but that's just what she was used to happening when she was a child (I think).Thrifty Till 50 Then Spend Till the End

Wrap it all
Sometimes I wrap presents then wrap them up into a bigger parcel or in a bigger box
I LOVE wrapping I could seriously spend all day wrapping presents
Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy,And sometimes life can be deceiving,
I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together0 -
I put stuff unwrapped into one of those giant fabric stockings and generally try to wrap anything that won't fit. I will never attempt to wrap an unboxed bicycle!0

I wrap Everything up, normally leave an unwrapped teddy at the top of the kiddies stockings.
Have made beer hampers this year for FIL and Uncle's they have gone in gift bags wrapped in tissue paper (I'm not very good at wrapping funny shapes LOL).
And this year I have Taken all the boys Doctor Who figures out of the boxes and wrapped them up individually, will be putting them inside a big box with little blown up balloons (Using water balloons - minus the water) then wrapping the big box up.
It's all got to be wrapped though, the kids love tearing the paper off in the morning!!
I love the Xmas confetti as well, I put some of that inside some of the pressies under the wrapping paper, add a little bit of xtra sparkle.:D:D:D:D
