The Trick to Gift Wrapping

I love wrapping gifts almost as much as I love buying them.  Many people like using gift bags because most items are oddly shaped and it's easier.  I have nothing against gift bags and have sometimes used them, but there is something about wrapping and unwrapping gifts that I love so much. The first thing I do when I buy a gift is get a box for it.  Most items like clothing and jewelry need their own box.  They are oddly shaped and would be impossible to wrap otherwise.  For items that are a bit larger, I have Amazon boxes I use.  I usually purchase my boxes at The Container Store or Michaels.  They both have a wide selection of boxes, ribbons, and wrapping paper. Next, I choose the wrapping paper according to the theme of the occasion and always tie it with a bow.  I usually garnish it with some stickers, stamps, or fresh flowers.  Presentation is everything since it's the first thing the person sees when you give them their gift.  

Happy Organizing!
