If you like to wrap all presents, how do you wrap the really hard to wrap things? Example - my lo is getting a doll stroller and doll high chair for Christmas. Both are going to be put together before Christmas so they are ready to go Christmas morning. Do you just throw some paper over them? Try to wrap them as neatly as possible? Find a gigantic bag they will fit into? What do you do?
-
Could you get some cellowrap to wrap around them? Or maybe just a big bow?
-
If you have a big box they'll fit into, you can wrap that!
-
As neatly as possible! I love a wrapping challenge!
-
If it's just oddly shaped, I throw wrapping paper on it and it just comes out the way it comes out. If it was a put together toy, I'd either put a big bow on it and leave it or loosely tape some paper around it.
-
Will one or both fit into a pillowcase? You could use a plain white one as a bag and tie a bow around it to close it.

I either find a big box that I can put it in to make it square or just try to wrap as neatly as possible.

When I was a kid, every once in a while we'd have a present wrapped in a blanket. In a pinch, it was an old blanket. Sometimes it was a new blanket, so it was a bonus present.

@LindsayLou: my dad did that a lot!
Often we just had a present like that left unwrapped under the tree though.

@mediagirl: when DD got a doll high chair last year it wasn't wrapped at all just sitting under the tree with a big bow and one of her dolls sitting in it

We just buy the big Christmas garbage bags for the big/oddly shaped presents.
-
I save amazon boxes. Or you could use a big Rubbermaid storage bin
-
This is the whole reason I don't wrap Santa presents. Too lazy too figure out how to wrap a put together toy
-
Something like a high chair I wouldn't wrap. I would have it sitting out with a bow. Odd shaped packages are so hard but I do my best!
-
I think my mom sometimes used a red pillow case and tied the top with a ribbon. Or just do a big bow!

For bigger items, a bicycle gift bag! Dollars stores usually have them this time of year with fun prints.
