Well I never - wrapping paper with cutting guidelines on it!!

[BaroqinAroundTheChristmasTree]

I never knew such a thing existed until today when I opened the "nice" rolls of wrapping paper I bought (the joys of the MN Secret Santa meant my Christmas budget could stretch a bit further and be used on stuff I wouldn't usually get including nice paper to wrap the DS's presents from me).

Well what a pleasant suprise I had after years of cutting squonk paper I could cut it straight . Such a novelty from the cheap rols of paper which rip in my hands and look like the dog chewed them by the time I was finished.

What discoveries have you made this Christmas???

DD very keen to write out christmas cards - next year they can help with all of them!

Same one as you. I am thrilled :o

LB - I am so glad I'm not the only one that never knew such a thing existed. They were from WH Smith - so no where really fancy - but certainly a lot more than I'd usually spend. IT was sheer heaven wrapping those presents up and I've got lots left over too so I'll have some with guides on for next year

Where does this paper come from?

I tend to just follow a repeating pattern to cut paper straight. But do admit guidelines sound fun!

I've never seen it before. Such a brilliantly simple idea. Despite it, I still managed to cut a piece too small to warp up one of the presents

I bought paper from Aldi this year and it had the line guides.
Simple, but brilliant
