Hello Reader, One of the things I hear most often in my gift wrapping workshops is: “I’m terrible at wrapping.” Closely followed by: “I never know how much paper to use.” and “Mine never looks neat enough.” The funny thing is, most people aren’t actually “bad” at gift wrapping at all. They’ve just never been shown a few simple techniques that make the whole process feel easier, neater and far less frustrating. In fact, there’s usually a moment during every workshop where someone suddenly says: “Why haven’t I always been doing it this way?!” And honestly, that’s one of my favourite parts of teaching. Because gift wrapping shouldn’t feel stressful or intimidating. A few small changes can make such a big difference, not just to how your gifts look, but to how confident you feel wrapping them. With that in mind, I’m starting to plan ahead for my signature in-person gift wrapping classes later this year.
