With only a mere few weeks until Christmas day, it’s time to slowly start wrapping some of the gifts you have bought for friends and family.

To us, wrapping presents is just as exciting as unwrapping them. However, we sometimes do find ourselves quite dumbfounded with how to wrap some of the more tricky-shaped objects such as wine bottles or gift baskets, for example.

That is why we have teamed up with Post-it®, Scotch® and Command™ to put together this blog post to help guide you on how to wrap some of the more precarious presents you’ve purchased.

What you’ll need for all of these gift wrapping tutorials:
