Suzanne worked at Bath & Body works, and they make all their gift baskets/bags in-store. - JaxSean Dec 8, 08:02
it's all about fun coloured tissue paper and curling ribbon. -- nm - Elf Andie Dec 8, 08:00 13
- I can't get the rectangular paper to peek out in a pretty way. -- nm - loosilu Dec 8, 08:02 12
  - Make a (loose) fist with on hand, and poke the middle of the tissue paper into it so it makes a "cone." - JaxSean Dec 8, 08:04 11
    - oh, nice. I need to try this. -- nm - loosilu Dec 8, 08:05 10
      - do you put the gift *inside* the cone of paper, or do you arrange the cones around the gift? -- nm - loosilu Dec 8, 08:07 9
        
        i wrap one piece of tissue around the gift (camouflage) the rest are just for show. also, using two colours of tissue is more impressive. - Elf Andie Dec 8, 08:17 4
        
        Yeah, yeah, then you spray them with glitter and scent them with pine somehow. -- nm - mara Dec 8, 08:21 2

        arrange them around the gift. Put the gift in the bag, then put the "cones" around it. - JaxSean Dec 8, 08:10
        
        IMO, the gift is nnever inside the tissue that pokes out. If the gift needs to be inside, or on top of, tissue, those are seperate pieces. -- nm - mara Dec 8, 08:09 2
        
        ok, this must be where I'm screwing up. -- nm - loosilu Dec 8, 08:15
        
        this. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 8, 08:10
