Holiday Wrapping Party

How many of us are up very late wrapping holiday presents alone? Why not turn the chore of holiday wrapping into a party? Invite a few friends, maybe incorporate the idea of a Potluck party (or at least a few snacks and beverages) and wrap your gifts together? Bring and share your supply of boxes, bags, tissue, wrapping paper, ribbons, gift tags, decorations and all your creative ideas. Do your gifts usually look the same as they did last year? (and the year before?) Perhaps one of your friends brings a different perspective to wrapping a package, while another is a whiz at bows? Is there someone who can write the names on the gift tags using calligraphy? Even if another is "all thumbs" they could be go-fers and keep the food and beverages coming. Channel the particular strengths of the group and have some fun...while getting your holiday chore done!
