As a busy working mum, I found that there were never enough hours in the day!  (I bet you know that feeling!) After having trailed my one year old around the shops for a gift suitable for posting to a friend’s daughter, I sighed at the thought of having to wrap it. You see, the problem is wrapping gifts. I am of the belief that some people can wrap and others… well, they simply can’t. Unfortunately for everyone I know, I fall into the latter group. My motto is can’t wrap, won’t wrap! Last Christmas I had attempted to simply ‘giftbag’ everything, but I did feel rather guilty as the presents in the giftbags did look rather bare and I spent longer trying to seal the giftbags in order to disguise the unwrapped gifts inside! Anyway, back to this story…

I was staring at the gift I had purchased and thinking to myself, I would rather wash my windows than attempt to wrap it, when suddenly out of nowhere I had my ‘lightbulb moment’. I thought to myself, I wish someone would invent a gift envelope which mimics a traditionally wrapped gift quickly and easily. And so, giftelope was born! And as they say, the rest is history!

Enjoy giftelope!
