But really..It looks so nice for a special present of one present. Plus they usually have wrapping there and it cheap. Lots of paper types actually.

Sounds like you like to wrap too.
I forgot about fabric. Ive done that too. Im a packrat. I have lots of vintage stuff and trim and lace and other klediments. Wallpaper is good too. The discontinued stuff is cheap. I have some vintage but I ration it. Do you wrap your baby gifts in the little blankets with the big safety pins..
If I do something involved Ive started wrapping the lids separate. Makes peeps happy that they dont have to destroy your creation to get the box open.
