I love a good wrap (and rap, but we'll stick to wraps for now). I keep the necessary rolls of wrapping paper in a bag hanging on the end of the bookshelf in my studio. It falls down regularly and I stuff all the rolls back into it and hang it up again so it can fall down again soon.
Pinterest is fab for handy little tips that just make you go, 'why didn't I think of that?'
See, why didn't I think of using one of those cheapy plastic bag storage plastic thingies from IKEA to control the rolls? It took those remarkable Swedes to come up with the idea - both cheapy plastic bag stoarage plastic thingy and using it for wrapping paper - with Gall-erry posting about it and me pinning it.
Visit Gall-erry (Google Translator will see you through) or click on the image to pin!
And as a little bonus, here's another 'why didn't I think of that' wrapping paper wrangling idea. Cut through the toilet paper roll and use it to keep the wrapping paper end nice and snug. I won't show the pin as the click-through link sent me to a spammy mobile site. As a result I have no idea where this image or idea came from, so sorry about that!
Are you also a bit mad for wrapping?

Haha... So simple and so effective!
I wonder if that could also be used for all the craft paper we have at our place.
OMG, genius! That toilet paper roll idea is so simple, and we all have the resources! I'm going to do that with all the next empty ones. Given no-one else in my house but me disposes of them, I'll have the opportunity.
Ikea have such simple solutions to just about everything, don't they? I just love those darn swedes.
That toilet paper roll idea is awesome!
Clever!
I'm drowning in wrapping paper in here!
But not for long - ta.
