I am a terrible wrapper.

I want to wrap beautiful gifts, with fancy ribbons and extra embellishments. I want people to ‘ooh’ and ‘ahh’ over the wrapping before they even find out how awesome the gift is. I want to be a good wrapper, but I’m not.

My paper is never straight, I can’t fold nice corners, sticky tape hates me, and when I try and make my gifts look fancy they just end up looking silly.

So this year I am enlisting help to make my gift wrapping looks super awesome… I am getting my kids to colour in the wrapping paper!

What could be more ‘ooh’ and ‘ahh’ worthy than individually coloured gift wrap, no two presents will look the same!?!

    This is fantastic. I’ll be printing some, but I also think this would be great in the classroom on those last couple of days when everything is a shambles as you clean and organise the classroom.
