We’ve got a present wrapping party goin’ on over here. How do I prefer to wrap presents? I don’t. I’ll buy a big bag or pay someone else to wrap presents. Wrapping presents takes too much coordination, and I either end up with too much or not enough wrapping paper for any particular gift. I’m a big fan of the “cram as many gifts into a single box and then wrap just one box” school of wrapping. Around here, I’m the DJ - she’s the wrapper. Thank goodness for wrap-friendly friends like Joz and MC, who have offered to lend a hand tonight. We’re They’re wrapping toys and listening to gift wrapping music - Christmas carols!

There’s all sorts of wrapping paper out there for us to use. Some folks even use old comics to wrap presents in - which is just as much fun (and quite affordable, if you’d prefer to go the recycling route). Here are a few great gift wrapping resources for you to peruse before diving into the tape:

• Heloise Organizes Holiday Gift Wrapping
