    I like to switch up. Since I do all the wrapping I think I should get to pick :-p I also use different paper for Santa gifts than for other gifts.

    Gotta switch up. I have 20-30 dif. rolls. I have a friend who works for American Greetings and every year at their grab sale he brings me a bunch of stuff so I always have plenty to choose from.

    I use one roll until it's gone, then on to the next. Boring, I know, but wrapping is usually an activity I do in a few stolen moments of spare time, so ease is key.

    I always have a theme going on. Last year it was Santa paper. This year all of my paper has a beige background with different designs. Next year I think I am going to do snowmen. I get several rolls in my theme and vary the wrapping.

    Santa does not wrap gifts at my house. He just drops of a couple of unwrapped toys for each child. Only presents from mommy and daddy are wrapped.

    All of our gifts are wrapped in the same paper. I like the way it looks under the tree.

    I switch BUT I make sure all the gifts from Santa are all wrapped in the same paper and I don't use any of that paper to do any gifts from us....
    I also wrap the gifts in the stocking with the Santa paper, the kdis LOVE to un-wrap so...

    I do exactly the same as Eileen. I have the Santa roll hidden up away up in the attic.

    I'm also a switcher. I like to pick paper to match the personality of the recipient. Helps me dig the right presents out from under the tree.
