How do you wrap your holiday gifts?

This year, mine are pretty much pretty paper with stick-on bows.

Other years, I've done more ~  I tied mini cookie cutters on every package one year (gotten at a warehouse sale really cheap), did all themed wrapping paper another year.

Store bought paper, but I skip the bows

I do store bought and bows. I have extra curling ribbon from my candy wreath, so will be adding some curling ribbons this year too.

I have made my own stamped papers in the past and made bows and hangy things but now that its just the kids and cats and ferrets I don't even bother with bows and tags - I use a different paper for each kid and santa leaves a card with an identifying piece of their paper by their name - but they have to find the pickle and the spider on the tree and those send them on a treasure hunt through the house to find the card from santa!! mwah mwah mwah - Christmas is very expensive and I like for it to last longer than five minutes!

Store bought paper and bows, bought deeply discounted after Christmas last year.

I have been giving more thought to using non-paper wrappings, but this year I have leftover paper bought from after holiday sales last Christmas.

I would love to hand stamp paper next year or even use cloth. I willl have to get started much earlier to do it though.

Clearance paper & curling ribbon. I wrap as bast as I know how & the cat helps with the ribbon.

We do a combination, but there wasn't an option for that.

I use some paper from the Dollar store, some cloth gift bags, some just wrapped in fabric, some wrapped in tableclothes (fabric, paper, plastic), and some just get a bow and placed under the tree with no wrapping.
