Has anyone tried to wrap it???? My sis's bday tomorrow and just attempted, ended up just putting some ribbon around top!

I'm not wrapping because mine is for me me me...but if you use paper large enough..perhaps from a roll...couldn't you cut it oversize, put the box in the middle & gather the paper at the top, tying ribbon or something round it to hold it together, & fan it out a little. Then perhaps a bow or something, either on top or at the side with a gift label?

Brought one for my sis and one for myself and happily handed over to DH & said "there you go, theres my xmas pressie!"

Seriously, it's not that bad

Thats the perfect tutorial for wrapping a round gift!

I was trying to think in my mind how to type out that exact wrapping style on here in a way that would make sense but your tutorial is perfect! Would defo recommend that anyone who is struggling has a look, its real simple once you get the first few pleats done :j

Mine always used to do that until all that refreshing last night & the internet going down on me this morning. All I get now is a blank white page.

How do I get my most visited sites back, I miss it, lol. Have I done something to my settings or something?

The same on mine. I fell asleep at 1 this morning with orange man grinning at me then woke up at 6.30 and did my order. Still processing so fingers crossed. I saw someone on here who ordered after me got a despatch email so I'm hopeful. I'll be annoyed if it's cancelled seing as I've had to have a nap this afternoon due to orange two fingered man and his toothy sidekick.

I'm rubbish at explaining :rotfl: But I found that a few days ago and it's great :j

Also - for anyone giving quality streets or any other hexagonal boxes - check out the tutorial for that :T
