Gift wrapping doesn’t have to be overwhelming or expensive. Here are 9 gift wrapping shortcuts that will make your holidays a little easier.

Raise your hand if you feel like wrapping the gift is one of the most fun parts of Christmas.

I put on Christmas music and a really good movie about a small-town girl who is trying to make a go of her cookie business with bake sales at the local harvest festival on the weekend until a big-time developer shows up and tells her he’s demolishing the building where her bakery is.

And I’m tying bows and hanging on every word.

After I wrap all those packages guess what I do?

I decorate with them.

I put them around the house on coffee tables and baskets and under the tree and on the dining room chairs.
