Clever Gift Wrapping Tricks For Lazy People

This post may be just for you guys out there. It is for the LAZY wrapper. This is my husband. He gives amazing gifts. He really does a great job finding the perfect gift. However, I often get the gift in the manufacturer’s box or the store’s plastic bag. I am super surprised if it is even in a gift bag. No tissue paper mind you, but in a gift bag.

#1 tip – it is easiest to have some supplies on hand. I suggest buying some a big roll of brown paper from a store like Home Depot. It is super cheap and can be used for any occasion.

You can wrap any gift in the brown paper and simply write “Happy Birthday” or “Merry Christmas” on it. It works for every gift because you can decorate it any way you want. Watch this video for some simple wrapping tips.

Happy Gifting and Wrapping!
