It's our Christmas meal tonight, and I've got the present but no wrapping paper...

Anyone got a clever and beautiful suggestion for wrapping I can do out of basic office supplies??

Is there a copy of the FT in your office? the pink paper looks GORGE.

No FT (I love it too) but I might try to sneak on the colour printer.

Any other suggestions in case I can't?

Copy the 'Merry Christmas' in different languages here, paste into word document and format so it fills a page of A3. Print out and use as stylish, multi-cultural wrapping paper. Extra points for providing amusement at team dinner while people try to spot Merry Christmas in Inupik.

I love it! Thank you. Have managed to find gold and silver crayons in the stationery cupboard too, so I'm well away

I was about to suggest exactly what Ladybee said.

Cracking idea.
