When I was younger I used to wrap just a few at a time and enjoy the slowly growing pile of gifts under the tree. Now I just want to get it all done at once. What is your preference or do you care?
Do you wrap all your presents at once or do a little at a time?

All at once, generally before I have to take them over to "Christmas Night" with the fam.

I wrap them as I go so the items don't get seen.

The only presents I wrap are the boys few presents, the other presents for family I put in giftbags.

I tend to wrap most of my presents at once, whenever I can find a time when the recipients aren't around (or at least banished from the room for awhile). I like throwing on a movie and enjoying the process, especially if I'm trying to disguise an easy to guess item (like a DVD).

I try to get them wrapped as soon as possible. Once they're wrapped, I don't have to worry about wrapping them anymore!
12/05/2011
I try to get to them as I get them, but I suck and now have a large pile of stuff I don't feel like wrapping lol.

I usually do them at the same time if I can help it. I'm a pretty obsessive wrapper, so I like seeing all the different paper and ribbon on the different sized boxes together, what they look like together, what they'd look like on display under the tree etc.... Obsessive might actually be an understatement.

All at once, because I sometimes keep stuff or switch it around.
12/05/2011
I love wrapping presents, and I usually wrap them as soon as they get in the house. I just tell people to stay outta my room if they don't want scissors thrown in their general direction.
12/05/2011
I like to do them all at once, because I find it to be a nigh insurmountable task that I want to finish as soon as I can.
12/05/2011
I usually wrap presents as I buy them. If I have a pile to wrap, I'll do it all at once.

It depends on who it is for. I wrap my husband and immediate family's presents the night I but them, (nosy people in my house!!), but for others who either do not live in the house or visit regularly I will wrap them all at once. Oh, then I also have my Christmas Eve nightmare!! Those would be the ones I forgot, the ones from layaway or just arrived via USPS.

all at once. get it done with.
12/05/2011
I wrap them immediately after I buy them. It goes black friday -> nap -> present wrapping.
12/05/2011
I normally buy all my gifts at the last minute. I tend to wrap them on the 24th!! *lol* I also hate wrapping. If it is square. I'm good. Anything else. I use a lot of scraps.

I usually do it in 2 or 3 sessions. I try to individualize my present packaging to the person receiving the gift and it requires some advanced planning.
12/06/2011
last min all at once always !!!
12/06/2011
The hubby and I wrap the presents on Christmas Eve. Don't know why, but we do.
12/07/2011
Little by little - otherwise there's too many!
12/07/2011
I always try to wrap them all at once to get it over with but it never seems to happen and I end up doing some here some there til I get finished in a frantic race in the wee hours of Christmas morning

I used to wait until last minute to get them all wrapped..just because I'd be done shopping and want something to do. Now that I have kids, I wrap them as I get them so there are no accidental findings in my closet. I ran into a problem with that this year. I've been buying christmas presents since Last February (toy clearance sale-little kids) and I wrapped them up. I had a list of everything I had purchased and wrapped, and I lost it! I remember most of the things ,but I know on Christmas I'm going to have forgotten something, or a month after I'll find another present hidden in my closet somewhere!

I do it on xmas eve, that way the packages don't get wrinkled or anything. It usually means that I'm up until 4 AM.... but oh well. Tradition is tradition
12/08/2011
I wrap them all at one time.
12/08/2011
I try to do it all at once but I never seem to have all my shopping done at once so i just do what I can
12/08/2011
My hubby and I wrap all of them on Christmas Eve. I sit on the living room floor and he does it on the kitchen table.
