Well It that time again where you wrap your Christmas gifts to everybody else. I did this yesterday at 2AM and I realized I could use some improvements in my wrapping "Technique"

So question is NS, how do you wrap your Christmas Gifts?

This thread is nothing without pics.

I also suck at wrapping so I usually just shove it in a bag with some fancy paper. But when i wrap the odd gift I just use 3x as much wrapping paper as needed and a fuck ton of tape.

I wrapped my boyfriend's presents for his parents..and I usually wrap the presents that my dad gets for me.. I think guys are just wrapping-challenged.

I think I might agree with this haha. It's too hard to explain in text how to wrap properly.

Not to sound sexist or offensive or anything like that but I think women are the only skilled ones at wrapping presents. I just can't do that shit to save my life.

If we can't see what's inside, it's good for me.

If it's wrapped like shit it's not my problem :)

wrapping a regular shaped box is easy, but long and hard to explain. also, nice wrapping andrew.

boxes are easy as shit, or just rectangular shapes. if you can't wrap those you just suck. Oddly shaped things I'm usually pretty good at, except sometimes I'll start off doing it wrong and just say fuck it, and it becomes kinda shitty

i feel the opposite, doing it "the right way" with regular shaped objects messes me up. odd shaped objects i get to have a little fun with and they end up okay, i guess i'm more of a free form wrapper

Last year just to piss off my brother, I wrapped his present in 1/2 a roll of duct tape....Literally.

Funniest thing ever

I dunno, my dad wraps presents super well - I use excessive amounts of tape, they're always neat and look pretty, but my family/boyfriend/friends always tease me that they know when I've wrapped something because it's so hard to get into/so much tape.
