Just finished wrapping a bunch of presents....okay, they have the paper on them.  Tomorrow is reserved for ribbon and bows and goo gaws.  Oh Lord!  I hope goo gaws doesn't mean something bad in another country!

Do you go all out with your wrappings or do you just paper them and call it done?  Also, do you disguise packages so the recipient can't figure out what they are?

I'm an all out wrappings and package tie ons girl.  I also disguise packages.   bear_thumb

oh Aleta I can just imagine the presents you would wrap- everything you do is exquisite (even tho we have never talked before I have admired your work from the minute I saw it)
   Enjoy your party everyone....

I'm not sure what we're having for dinner yet.  Maybe we'll just graze through the day on quiche and fruit and go see a movie.

Well Merry Christmas to you too Aleta.... Wow I can't get over how many people joined in the party.

This may have already been asked but does everybody have their shopping done? I did all of mine on line. I avoided the crowds....And....they send the present right to the recipient with a gift note...All while I stayed in my warm house and jammies...

Awww shucks.  :redface: Thank you, Karen.  You're an absolute doll for saying so.  I think most people think  I'm just one of those gals that overdoes every little thing.  It makes me happiest to go all out and put my whole heart into projects.

Hey there Michelle,
I thought I had my shopping done.......I did it in bits and peices throughout the year.  Then I saw all of the Christmas stuff and went crazy bear_wacko   So much for planning ahead bear_grin !

The on-line thing sounds like a great idea where do you shop?

Here is their website:

Shopping done?  All except Bill's gift.  Men are the hardest to buy for......especially when they buy themselves what they need whenever they need it or want it. 

My family always says I'm the hardest to buy for.  WHAT?  I love everything!!  Someone could pick a dandelion, plop it in a bottle, tie it with a ribbon and I'd be happy.
