jellybean051901 Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Left overs from last year. I have more rolls than I know what to do with
starshine Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 90% off from CVS is my paper of choice! It's just going to get thrown away so I'm not picky. Last year I got alot of boxs and bags too so I may be using them alot also.
Turtle Mommy Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 whatever I got on clearance last year :)Me too!!
happysunshine28 Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Whatever I got on clearance last year, plus I still had some left over. I wont have to buy none for several years.
Cecilliadb Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 I love the paper and ribbons I got last year so I will use them up and then buy new stuff as needed.
holly2hottie Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 I love cartoon characters, Winnie the Pooh, Dora, Spongebob, Mickey, my dollar store always has a great assortment, I've already bought a bunch. They my husband gets wrapped in Mossy Oak camo paper. I try to wrap each persons gift with paper theme that they like.
Melissa Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Whatever was bought on clearance after Christmas last year. I do however wrap Santa gifts in Santa paper.Same here.
peachysquirt21 Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 I have alot of leftovers from last year but ordered a package of wrapping paper, boxes, tags & gift bags online. Most of it is snowmen. I looooove snowmen so I cannot wait to wrap with this stuff. :)
pogiporkchop Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 I have a couple of leftovers from last year, but I also ordered some nice paper and bags (and some gifts too) when my son's school had their fall fundraiser recently. I'd rather support my son's school than some big business if I'm going to pay full price for something :)
Illinoismom Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 Okay you all might think I am nuts but I am doing a theme for each person. ExampleMy oldest DS has gingerbread menDS 7 SantasDD 5 SnowmenDS 2 Elvesand DD 1 year is getting Angels I am also using blue snoflakes for my mom.This is less hassle trying to figure out who is whos if it doesn't have a name tag. Plus then the kids actually look at the wrapping paper LOLThis is what we do, Except one year I found Santa Claus is coming to town paper, in three different scenes, But I am upset it's all gone, I liked that paper
laffnatu Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 Whatever I have left from last year and whatever I find at the Dollar Tree this year. The theme idea is a great idea for lost tags. I buy the sticker tags so they don't fall off. And I'm cheap. I usually don't buy bows, if I do have bows, I wait until the presents go under the tree. The kids have birthdays on the 26th and 28th. I'm so cheap, I turn the Christmas paper inside out if I don't have enough birthday paper.
copados1993 Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 The last few years most of ours has come from Dollar Tree. I usually end up with a couple of rolls of the nicer stuff that I use from Santa gifts. Honestly IMO the stuff from Dollar Tree is pretty decent.:)
sns128 Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 I have left over Star Wars and Disney Princess wrapping paper from last year so I'm using that and then whatever catches my eye this year.
jlodoj Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 I always buy paper on sale and wrap relatives and friends gifts in that paper. I wrap my 3 yr. old son's presents only with Santa paper. His special gifts from Mom and Dad are in the paper we got on sale as well.
carheel Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 i have no theme as far as paper, just look to see what i have from last year.
rogue1230 Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 I don't buy a particular brand or anything. I just buy whatever catches my eye. I do have a dislike though. I don't usually like paper with characters on it like Elmo, SpongeBob, etc. The only character I'll allow on my wrapping paper is Santa. I may loosen that rule a bit when I have children. LOLMy thoughts exactly... I do santa and other "icons" but no liscensed characters. lol. When I have littles I think I will try to stick to that.... The characters will be inside the wrapping after all right?
JazzMama Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 Each of their presents are wrapped in "their" paper. It makes it alot easier on Christmas morning.We do this for Cailyn's presents - they're always wrapped in Disney Princess Christmas paper. For everyone else, I think I'm just getting craft paper and using raffia to tie the packages up. I got some scrapbook paper on sale to use as gift tags.
sevirj Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 We usually order paper from my daughter's school fundraiser (whatever's pretty), and then when we run out, we make a run to Wal-Mart for any additional paper that's needed. The only exception to what we order is that every year we buy SpongeBob SquarePants paper for my nephew.
