WRAP Ideas

I have a bridal shower this weekend. As a gift, I bought all the bathroom accessories including rug towels etc. She's a 'be in dear wrap in clear bride'. What are some cute wrapping options instead of using a wicker basket????

Re: WRAP Ideas

if the gifts are light enough you can do the laundry rope... it's not 100% original, but not everyone has seen it yet. I did it for my FSIL's baby shower and it was a BIG HIT!

I think the laundry basket is cute and practical. It is something they will use and it goes well with the bathroom theme.
This is random and doesn't really go, but what about one of those beverage tubs? The kind you use at a BBQ and put ice and drinks in. BBB has nice silverish ones.

So the bride to be doesn't have to unwrap any gifts. She can see what it is and ohh and ahh.

some people choose to do that to save time and not have to open each gift.. so they are just all on display.

I personally am not a fan.. suc ks all the fun out of it for the bride.. and I know how much time & effort I put into gifts and part of the fun is watching the bride open. Oh well, to each their own...

Did she register for a waste basket with the bathroom set? If so, if its big enough, wrap it up in that. Or you could get a real laundry basket....not the wicker ones. They are great to have. Ive never seen people really use the wicker baskets as their laundry baskets. hmmmm....what else could you do? Picinic basket? one that she could use for a real picnic. Doesnt go with the theme but its a cool gift!
