| Does anyone actually enjoy wrapping presents? I hate it personally it gives me back ache. And how much effort goes in? I do try to wrap neatly but dont bother with stuff like ribbons or tags just a marker pen |

| Hello again I LOVE wrapping pressies, if I had my way I would do all of them as I sit and watch Simon doing it and he doesn't do it to my standard Up until this year I made sure the wrapping paper matched the decorations, with a matching gift tag and bow, but this year as there are sooo many pressies for the both of them I've relaxed a bit. |

| Oooh I love it!! I wouldn't say I'm brilliant at it and I don't go all out with ribbons and bows etc - I don't even really do tags, I generally wrap each persons presents in a different paper so I know who's is who's that way. Also stops people nosing through to find which is theres and rattling it I have a bit of an issue with wrapping though in that I cannot start wrapping anything until I have completely finished my shopping and I HAVE to wrap everything in one sitting - is usually a very very late night coz it always takes longer than you thought. xx |

| Love it to start and hate it by the end! Oh and I also forget one pressie! Last year it was a magnetic dart board!
I like square or rectangle ones and go all out with ribbon etc! But Stocking pressies tend to get cheaper paper and just a label or marker pen initials!

| I love wrapping presents, I get really excited and try to think of ways to wrap differently so they don't guess what it is. I don't go over the top with ribbon, I hate when it's so tight you can't get into a present! Always do tags though |

| I love wrapping the easy shaped prezzies and go all out with the ribbon too but I can leave the awkward shaped ones. Luckily my OH is really good and a total perfectionist so think I'll be enlisting his help this year! |

| I love pressie wrapping!
I try to do it over a few nights or I get a bit bored/sloppy by the end and need to re-do it.
I like all my pressies looking just perfect too with pretty bows and stuff x |
