5) Which do you prefer:
wrapping paper or gift bags? Why?
I like gift bags and wrapping paper. I use wrapping paper more unless the gift is an awkward shape. Wrapping paper is just so pretty with bows and other personalization options.
That is a look into a bit of our holiday. What about you? What's your answer? Can't wait to read it.
