Don't stop with the gift. Pay attention to the gift wrap,
boxes and bags too.

Have you ever paid to have presents professionally wrapped?

68% No, that's what gift bags are for
32% Yes, it's much easier (and prettier) that way

Gift Wrap Rules!

or Does it?

76% I adore getting something nicely presented

24% I can take it or leave it. It's what's inside that counts!

So glad that the consensus is that gift wrap matters. This is actually one of my top five gift tips--don't stop with the gift. You must pay attention to the gift wrap, boxes and bags too. The packaging should accentuate the gift and be "on theme."

So when it's time to wrap your gifts this season don't forget wrapping paper is your opportunity to make a first impression to your giftee.
