I don't wrap presents very well and I am always trying to find someone else to do it for me. Do you wrap your own or do you get someone else to do it or pay someone to do it?

I do all my wrapping because I love to do it. I don't usually like wrapping the big gifts but all others I love to because I like to make them special looking for everyone. I will put ribbons, bows, candy and cards on them.

Hi thedaddym, I love wrapping my own presents. I was taught by my dad who can do it pretty well, and so I don't do a bad job with it. I find it strangely therapeutic at times, all the routines of it and the nice folds and lines. It is only annoying if the thing I am wrapping isn't square or rectangular and the wrapping looks useless whatever I do, those are annoying! Most of the time I like the personal touch wrapping things myself gives a gift, that and seeing people struggle with all the cellotape later can be fun too lol All the best, Dranz

Unfortunately I do end up wrapping all of our presents for the whole family and extended family, the only presents I don't wrap are he ones that are for me. Those my husband either gets my mom to wrap or his best friends mom. I actually really hate wrapping presnts. The very thought of it stresses me out big time, but it has to be done so I do it.

hey the daddym, I like to wrap my presents because I feel that I can wrap better than anyone else I give it to. You know the saying? "If ya wanna get something done, do it yurself". I always follow that saying. No matter what the job is, I always do that. Unless I wake up and im lazy... other than that time, I always follow it. Also, this year I might not celbrate chirstmas because I feel that it is very very childish. Also, there are no children in the house and I don't lke to consider myself as a child because I am responabile and old enough to own my own house and have my own job. I can also cook on my own. Anyways, to generally answer your question, I usually wrap presents myself because I don't want anyone else to get the wrapping look very bad and then get all the blame taken on me. Have a great day and hapy mylotting!!! Punjab911

I wrap presents I buy for others. I also wrap presents for others who ask me to and offer me some compensation.

I wrap my own presents but I wouldn't say I do them well. If I'm at a store where they offer FREE or CHEAP wrapping, I'll do that - just because it's more convenient. But I definitely wrap them myself otherwise. They never look all that good or anything, but that's mainly just because I'm too impatient and not careful enough when wrapping them. lol.
