CHRISTMAS WRAPPING

One of my favourite things to do is find the perfect wapping paper and accents for my christmas presents. I love to used different textures and prints, I really feel all the little extras are worth it. It makes the present a lot more fun to give, knowing the person receiving it is pleased with the present even before opening it.

I buy wrapping paper, ribbons and accents from a a variety of stores, Homesense, Home Goods, Michael's, etc. Wine bags and pre made boxes are another great way to speed up the wrapping process while still getting that beautiful effect.

Although I like to collect my wrapping materials in advance that doesn't mean I'm anymore prepared than anyone else. I'm still that person that is finishing her wrapping on Dec 24th, hoping that the next present is the last. Needless to say those presents may not get as much tlc as previously wrapped gifts.  

Santa on the other hand has the right idea, he had these perfect gifts sacks and theres no wrapping involved!! My kids woke up to those gifts and I don't think they minded not having all the bells and whistles, santa's magic is one of a kind!
