Yay! I’ve wrapped all the presents 🎁

Never done that before! I’ve bought and wrapped every single present. I did have some extra time this year when dc were in school and I could spend a whole day sorting and wrapping. I also did more online shopping this year so saved some time there too. Normally I am literally wrapping on Christmas Eve night!

How are you getting on with all the wrapping? Are you super organised and wrap as you go? Or is it still in bags waiting to be done?

Well done! Like you I’ve never wrapped before Xmas eve and still haven’t but im ready to and have time. Today was in the diary for it but have an ill child at home. I’ll start tomorrow and do some next week, imagine it’ll be a great feeling!

Usually all done by now. But none of dcs are wrapped yet - not sure when we'll get round to it....

I wrap as I go. I wfh so it's quite easy to wrap a couple every day in my lunch break. I have all my wrapping supplies in my office and a really good dymo label printer which makes things much easier. Wrap and put into the loft.
The only downside is the dreaded twitch, because I can't see what I've done, I have a bad habit of getting a few bits more.

Yep i'm all done including wrapping things for stockings 💪
We are on a UK holiday break this week so I wanted to make sure it was all done before we went away as it will be manic when we get home.
I do quite enjoy wrapping presents though, although the novelty wears off after the first few.

Zero wrapping yet as I am waiting for some eco tape to turn up. I am also of the wrapping into Christmas eve type and I hate it.
I also have some presents still to arrive and I don't like to wrap until I have everything as I forget what is in each one, despite having it written down.
Hoping the tape will be here by the weekend so I can crack on. Stocking presents are wrapped in tissue paper and a colour for each person so that's nice and easy.

I’ve wrapped everything and it’s such a relief! I do the DC’s presents in one go as I like to get everything out and make sure the piles look roughly equal before wrapping. I also wrap stocking presents. It always takes much longer than I think so leaving it is not a good idea. I can relax now!
