Gift Wrap & Shipping Kit
Organize wrapping paper, gift bags, tissue paper, tape, scissors, ribbons, bows, and labels in one location. If you are inclined, make two kits: one for the holidays with seasonal papers and ribbons, and a second for the rest of the year for birthdays, weddings, and baby showers. For shipping, organize packing tape, peanuts, bubblewrap, labels, markers, and an address book. Better yet, buy printer labels and print a page of labels for each recipient. Keep them in a manila envelope with other packing supplies.
