Easy Holiday Gift Wrap

If you shop for many different families for the holidays (sister & kids, brother & kids, grandparents, etc.), assign each family a certain type/color of wrapping paper. It will make gathering the presents easy because you won't forget anything, and you won't have to read every name tag. It will also put a lot of color under your tree.

Holiday Returns

Collect all of your receipts for holiday purchases in one folder so that when you have to return things, everything is organized in one place.

A Dish to Pass

When throwing your next big party, ask everyone to bring a dish to pass. People don't mind, and It takes the pressure off you as the host family. Plus, it opens people up to new and different recipes!

Fridge overcrowding

I use glass only with plastic wrap seals for food prep/serving/storage. When a holiday or large BBQ is threatening to use all my fridge space I stack bowls by placing the appropriate sized plates between them!

Gift Wrap Control

If you tape the end of your gift wrap so it won't unroll, it tears the paper when you take it off. Instead, wrap a thin piece of plastic wrap around each end, and the roll stays in place beautifully!

Wrapping Presents for a Group

I buy several different designs of wrapping paper for the holidays. Each family is assigned its own design. This way I can sort gifts by family without having to read the gift cards.
