Wrapping Tips For Idiots

Are you incapable of wrapping presents without the help of your mother, or the help of an elf? It’s okay. We’re here for you.

1. Christmas caddy

When your Sellotape is on the ceiling and your ribbon wrapped round your legs, we suggest you get organised before embarking on your wrappathon. For the professional wrapper, use a shower caddy to organise your paper, scissors, tape, ribbons, bows, and any other things you may need. This works a dream for Christmas!

2. Ironing board brilliance

An oldie but a goldie. Ironing boards are the ultimate wrapping platform…it also means you get to do your wrapping in front of the TV. Pair this with the shower caddy tips and you’ve basically opened up a rival to Santa’s workshop.

3. Sh*t wrapping not so much!

Keep a few loo rolls aside to keep any extra wrapping paper organised. Slip the roll around opened wrapping paper to stop it unravelling. This one will save your life at Christmas. We can already see the headlines “The loo roll that saved Christmas”…

4. Tip your tape

Wrapping presents wouldn’t be so difficult if you weren’t constantly on the quest to find the end of the Sellotape. Even worse? When the tape splits down the centre *shudders*. The solution? Tip your tape with a peg, a paper clip, or even a bit of card.

5. Paint it on gurl!

Had enough of trying to tie the perfect bow? We suggest putting down the ribbon and picking up the paintbrush. Paint a simple bow on plain paper for a unique take on bows. Super cute for the super stupid …thoughtful.

6. Aww isn’t that sweet!

If the painted bow is too simple, or you’re wrapping for kids, tie some string around a bag of sweets to create a bow that nobody can refuse. A present before the present? Genius.

7. Vanilla Reindeer to the rescue…
