Wrapping Paper Struggles

When it comes to wrapping gifts, I am self-described as hopeless. I usually opt for the gift bag option or resort to using A LOT of scotch tape. My mom is a master. She creases the paper perfectly, cuts the perfect amount, can make the perfect curled ribbon bow with a pair of scissors. That skill set was not passed on to me.  Anything that does not come in a simple box shape usually ends up in a gift bag or goes to the Shoppers Mall when they have the wrapping station set up. This year I have lots of time to try and learn the skill.
