"Tis the Day Before Christmas

This is it!
The moment we have all been waiting for, eagerly anticipating!
A few last minute things need doing, check; turkey is thawing in the fridge.
Now time for the fun stuff, lets get those presents beautifully wrapped.
All the paper, tape, gift bags and bows and ribbons together with little candy canes tiny ornaments are ready to decorate your gifts.
Tell me, what says Christmas better than the beautiful wrapping paper that features Santa Claus, snowman, reindeer or angels. Tie a ribbon around it, slap on a great big bow and voila! You have perfected the art of holiday gift wrapping. Wrapping really large packages, irregular shaped items, plants and giant stuffed animals require some more thought.

If this overwhelm you.
Here is a simple way to get you on your way. You know how easy gift bags are , not only that you can reuse them! Now to wrap the tricycle or scooter, you need to find a specialty gift boutique that sells gigantic gift bags, as they are specially designed for gifts like this.
Now if you bought a large TV or an office chair . WOW they are to big for the gift bag ..........NO FEAR , just spray paint the box red or green again put a huge bow around it (like the one you use for your front door).

A cute or clever saying enhances the value of any gift and makes it much more special to the person who receives it.
Any sweet treat: "Wishing you a season with sweetness!"
Candle: "Hope your Christmas is full of light"
Pencil and notepad: "Hope your Christmas is something to write home about!"
Popcorn: "We're "popping" by with a holiday HI!"
Cookie Dough: "Here's a little extra "dough" for Christmas"
Basket of Bath Items: "When you feel like a basket case, take a break...and slow your pace"
Bell: "With each chime of this festive bell, may a Christmas wish come true, and bring you peace and happiness to last the whole year through!"
Nuts: "We're nuts about you!"
Crayons and Coloring Book: Hope your Holidays are Colorful!
Stuffed animal: "Paw sing" to wish you a Merry Christmas!"
