So I was stalking Anthopologie’s website, as I do almost nightly, and noticed that they’re selling gift wrap for the holidays! I’ve never wanted wrapping paper as a gift until now. Okay that’s not true. I love gift wrap, and ribbon and tags and decorative doodads. And every year I think this will be the year I get my sh*t together and wrap all my gifts into little works of art. But then I run out of time and the idea of buying $12 wrapping paper sheets that will cover maybe a gift seems extravagant. Instead I just wait until I fly home and wrap them all in whatever jumbo econo roll my mom has bought at Walmart. We’re so lazy at home too that sometimes you don’t even get a pre-made bow stuck on the top. And even worse is when we’re running low on paper, or just didn’t cut the square big enough, and leave a big ole gap under the present where the paper ends didn’t quite meet. Then you have to combine 2 different wrapping papers to make some sort of mutant gift. Classsssy.
So whatever Anthro. Look all pretty with your $30 wrapping job around a $10 present. We all know it’s what’s inside that counts.
Unless it’s wrapped like this:
