ramona1992 Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 When do you wrap gifts? As you buy them or all at once? Christmas Eve?
hope1976 Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 I usually wrap them all at once Christmas Eve or a few days before (when I'm completely done). If I do it as I get them, I forget what's in each one
ccarson1972 Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 I usually wait till the last minute and I am up all night.
Gloey Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 I wrapped all yesterday afternoon and thought I was just about done but then I found some more stuff in the closet! I hate to wrap, especially with a "helpful" cat.
daworths8 Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 I will be wrapping starting next week when kids go back to school! Have 4 at school and my 2 year old twins at home, Ill be wrapping when those 2 are napping. Still have some odds n ends to grab Ill wrap those as I get them. I hope to have a Christams morning stuff wrapped by December 16th, when kids get off for Christmas break. Stuff for other people Ill wrap whenever, as they kids like to help with that!
ramona1992 Posted November 26, 2005 Author Posted November 26, 2005 I homeschool! Haha - never a private moment at our house.
missyjane Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 I've just spent the last 3 hours wrapping. I have a few more to do, but I'm gonna quit for now because I can do those whenever.
shanni Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 I've wrapped everything already! I try to wrap them as soon as I get them, I hate waiting to the last minute and having to do it all at once.
kbasketcr8r Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 Whenever 50 cent comes on the radio. Sorry, I couldn't resist.
decafmom Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 Whenever 50 cent comes on the radio. Sorry, I couldn't resist.LMBO! I wrapped all my gifts today. The only gifts I have left to get are gift cards, and they don't need wrapped! Yippee!!!!!!!
daworths8 Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 Whenever 50 cent comes on the radio. Sorry, I couldn't resist. Thanks for the laugh today! Needed it after this loooooooooong week, Im so wore out:(
Mommie2one Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 All my gifts are wrapped, tagged, and has bows on them. I have them in the garage in a large contractor bag. 2 of them actually! I over bought as usual!
ramona1992 Posted November 27, 2005 Author Posted November 27, 2005 Whenever 50 cent comes on the radio. Sorry, I couldn't resist. I've read this three times and just got it! Man, I'm slow tonight!
Gporter34 Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 Everything got wrapped as soon as it came in yesterday. The sooner I wrap it, the less chance of the two little ones getting into it.lol
queenofshopping Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 i wrap over the course of a week or 2 between when the tree goes up & xmas eve
threelittlecupcakes Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 My DD wants to wrap everything as soon as we get it. I want to wait until I know I can't find a better deal on it at another store. May have to return. I am using the excel list for the presents this year or I would forget what I bought also.
magickallight Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 I homeschool! Haha - never a private moment at our house.We homeschool as well - can't decide if I am going to pull an "all nighter" wrapping or sub him out to his Grandma for a day... She lives behind us and he likes to sneak up and peak! Ughhhhhhhhhhhhh!
ramona1992 Posted November 29, 2005 Author Posted November 29, 2005 Holy cow, magic - my MIL lives behind us! How odd is that?
gemini1217 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 I will beginning wrapping here in the next few days. I keep a notebook of what I have already gotten & what I still need to get. Gotta make sure everyone is even when you have three 8 yr olds!!!
JazzMama Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 I wrap all that I have the Saturday after Thanksgiving. So, as of right now, everything's wrapped and under the tree. I'm going to Bass Pro on Saturday to buy the rest of my husband's gifts and that will have me 100% done with buying and wrapping.
mghtymth27 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 late at night when the kids are asleep -- anytime from now until a couple of days before Christmas
mulchman22 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 a little here and a little there till its done.
mom2thegirls Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 ..... I hate to wrap, especially with a "helpful" cat.I have 4 helpful kitties, a 12yo siberian husky mix and a 7 month old Malmute. I'll be able to wrap when the next time the 5yo crashes for a nap (and the dogs are outside and the cats are in the basement).
oliviasmommy Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 i wrap mine as i buy... my husband is very impatient... if i don't wrap as soon as i buy he's bound to tear the house apart looking for his gifts. luckily for me, he's bad at trying to sneak a peak at his already wrapped gifts ... i told him if i can tell he's sneaked a peak than i'll return whatever he looked at. he doesn't try to peak anymore.
ajburlingame Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 I haven't wrapped a thing yet. I did set up a table in the basement last night, went through some bags and made a list of what I have bought and what I need to get yet but that is it. Hopefully I will be able to do some wrapping this weekend. I still have to finish getting the baby room ready for our baby that is due on Feb. 7 also. It is a work in process right now.
CBC Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Usually right before I go to exchange or mail the stuff. My daughters presents I do on Christmas Eve. Shes little and gets into everything.
