a wrapping question

[amylw1]

hi,

i need some help/advice.

in my wisdom i have bought blake (1yr old) s 4ft high teddy bear!!! it is nearly twice the height of him. LOL!

now the question is HOW do i wrap the thing????? OH says black bag and a tag, my sis says leave as is.

help. x

hmm.. good question!
I'd perhaps wrap it in clear paper, like cellophane and then scrunch it together at the top and then tie a bow around it?
But then 4ft.. that's a lot of paper
Or get a santa sack and pop him in there?

You could put it in a really big box if youve got one lying around from other toys or anything and wrap the box? Might be easier than trying to wrap a giant bear...xx

box would work IF i can find 1 big enough (teddy is soft n fluffy but doesnt bend much!), dont no if i would find a sack big enough


teddy seemed good idea at time. LOL! didnt think about the wrapping of it.

i would probably just leave it and wrap everything else. being only 1 he will probably love walking (?) into the room and seeing a giant teddy right away....might help him get excited and into the spirit of things a bit more x

I would just leave it as it is, maybe put a big bright bow round its neck. I always leave the kids toys unwrapped so they see everything as they walk into the room, plus it takes all the hassel out of sitting unwrapping 100's of presents

no it has to be wrapped somehow - all presents for all 3 boys get wrapped.

in that case i would get yourself down to primark and buy lots of paper
would probs just wrap it in the spot its staying tho to prevent ripping etc

I'd leave it too hun. Last year I had made up amelies zebra and ball pit and obv didnt wrap them and it was fine, she played with them first

Lol last year I wrapped a massive huge play kitchen, I just got wrapping paper and went crazy rolling around it and lots of sticky tape! Didn't look great but my daughter didn't care when she was tearing off the paper

When I got a bike my mum leant it in the corner and covered it in loads of strips of paper so it was "wrapped" but not really iygwim? xx

lol, i wouldent think about wrapping at the point of buying either, i would wrap each part iykwim, so it looks like a teddy bear made out of wrapping paper, will see if i can find a piccy
