Guest kathybmb Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I try hard but don't always succeed in wrapping right away..i keep everything i buy in a christmas journal. that way even though things are wrapped i can look up who i got what for..

lilac100 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 I try so hard to wrap as I go, but I usually end up wrapping my kids stuff on Christmas Eve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laffnatu Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I started wrapping last night. I finished shopping for my neice, wrapped them all and put them in a box in the attic. This is really good for me. I'm usually wrapping on Christmas eve. I decided to start wrapping earlier this year especially since my little incident last year. My lock broke on my bedroom door and I was locked in my room while wrapping my son's gifts. My son who was 9 at the time was the only one there. He had to go next door around 11pm to get my neighbor who finally worked the lock loose from the outside. I knocked off some of the door frame trying to get out. I just realized something.... I still haven't gotten that door lock fixed. I've been using a slide lock since Christmas..lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavenlysshine Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Usually the whole week before Christmas...and I enlist help! I hate wrapping alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kygal2003 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I'll start wrapping gifts once the tree is up. Some of the kids gifts will wait to be wrapped on Christmas Eve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indymom46060 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 We start wrapping here and there a couple of weeks ahead, but normally have the majority of it left to do on Christmas Eve. We have turned it into sort of a tradition..lol. We do snacky finger foods and everyone (me, brother, sisters, mom, hubby, etc) gets together at my mom's and we all bring our wrapping supplies, sit on the floor, watch 'A Christmas Story'(over and over again!), wrap gifts and talk. It actually turns out to be a pretty fun evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmConMom Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Usually the weekend after I pick up my layaway I wrap everything, with the exception of last minute gifts. I do wrap other people's presents early but my kids I wait until I have everything and then wrap. Also, I wrap each of the kids' presents in different paper. That way I don't have to put names on them, I can just stash them until Christmas Eve and then I know who they belong to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlr1996 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I try to wrap everything for the kids before they are out of school and finish up everyone else between then and Christmas eve. Along with everything else.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Mommy Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I have done both ways. I like wrapping as I go better. My back thanks me! :lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
