Which Christmas Kind Of Guy Are You? - Page 2

A. use store purchased boxes to wrap presents with "un-cruppled" white tissue paper as stuffing. Try to use multiple different colored Christmas wrap so that tree has an assortment of colors. I use the special little name tag stickers and try to decorate at least a few with bows and ribbons. I crease the wrapping paper as i fold it to provide crisp corners and neat,professionally looking wrap job.

B. use whatever box is available, usually just remove the packing slip and use the box it shipped in. Whatever packing peanuts or wadded up newspaper it was shipped in is good enough for stuffing. I use the roll of wrapping paper until it's gone, if that means the entire space under the Christmas tree is "lime green with snowflakes" then so be it. The bows are always smushed and a ball point pen writes the names just fine right on the paper. If the wrapping tears while i'm wrapping it then i just use extra tape to patch it up.

I used to do stuff like that to my son, one year I wrapped his present with 2 entire rolls of duct tape. He never seemed to find as much amusement in it as I did.

I'm A. I also like to make sure that there is a relatively even number of types of wrapping paper underneath the tree, and I strive to make sure that every package is gift wrapped so tight that there is no amount of play between the folds and the box. I generally use whatever box I can find, though, and I just cover the gift up with tissue paper rather than intricately folding it up inside...but I hate Christmas.

You're supposed to wrap gifts? When did that start?
