We have tons of tips on how to amp your gifting game, but if you need a “we’ve all been there” laugh in the spirit of the holidays, scroll through this list of self-declared #WrappingFails.
1. Shake It Off: Some toys weren’t meant to be wrapped… but seriously, how awesome is this? (via @aliciacheyanne)
2. Use Your Imagination: This is one of those immersive, experiential gifts we’ve been hearing so much about, right? (via @rubyshoesphoto)
3. Crafty: Craft paper is always great for wrapping, but when you have something that’s a tricky shape, it may be best to bag it. (via @gal_tobin)
4. Chew Toy: If your pup is bored… that roll of wrapping paper might start to look like a bone. (via @andremarieferraro)
