This is yet another example of how men and women differ. For the most part women make it look so easy and they actually seem to enjoy it! If I have to wrap anything more demanding than a square or rectangle shaped object I’m pretty much hosed. I also require about three times as much tape for a given object to wrap than the average female.
Oh well, At least I know the difference between north-south and east-west when I’m driving. 
Ditto. I’m not very creative with it, but the actual process is pretty easy.
I was quite pleased at how my gifts came out this year, especially w.r.t. the ribbons and bows.
My husband is a perfectionist when it comes to things like this, and I’m not. You can tell at a glance which presents he wrapped and which ones I wrapped. (You can also tell which clothes he folded vs. which ones I folded, which vegetables he cut up vs. the ones I cut up, etc.)
No, and I’m sorry if I sounded like an asshole.
My brother is a non-wrapper, but he’s sort of made an art of makeshift gift coverings. He usually just jams the gift into a cardboard box (as long as it’s printed with words that don’t correspond to the gift inside) and whips up an elaborate duct tape bow.
I remember being awfully embarrassed one Christmas morning as a kid. I had done my own wrapping, and couldn’t understand why everyone laughed so hard when our family friend took the paper off my gift to her. I was giving her a little stuffed kangaroo, and had found a box for it that was just the right size, under my mom’s bathroom sink. All I had to do was dump the tampons out of it.
I chose “can’t wrap at all.” That’s a lie. I can wrap, but it looks like absolute crap. Gift bags are my friends.
Mine don’t win contests, but neither are they just passable. Mine are very nice and pretty, but not creative or anything. I can wrap a box beautifully and neatly but don’t expect anything really special!
Mine are usually artistic & functional. Most people are ashamed to tear into the unearthly wonders that are my packages.
Eh?
Better than my wife, I guess (hers look to be rolled in randomly in paper and then all the loose corners are fastened down with tape).
I love the paper with the grid on the back. It makes everything so much prettier. (Only hallmark seems to have it in Canada.)
My giftwrapping key is to put everything in a box first. I save boxes from everything during the year but every once in a while I have to go to Solutions to get an appropriately sized box (and they always have one).
Of course then there’s the fun part with ribbons and bows and bells maybe a puffball or a googly eye face…yeah, I love wrapping presents.
