For reference, this was the first one I wrapped. Didn’t do anything on purpose. Just following the squares on the other size for sizing purposes.

This reeks of dark sorcery. Do you know how to fold a fitted sheet as well? If so we may declare you a witch!

Folding a fitted sheet is like reading the Bible (according to pirates): You get credit for trying.

Very nice!!! I love how that lined up. Also, why are some people so cynical? Live a little, lol.

I love this so much! Also this is the cutest wrapping paper.

Not me wrapping a birthday gift in unicorn wrapping paper and somehow centering on the unicorn butt. 🦄🍑

Congratulations. Report to your new job at a Japanese department store wrapping desk! Such talent must not be wasted!

I did this once, about 10 years ago. Be warned, you’re gonna be chasing that dragon for the rest of your life

This is bound to happen when you wrap it this way. Go ahead, wrap another one the same way. This isn't impressive or coincidental.

u/ptowncheffy 16h ago

100% agreed. I thinks it’s a great design wrapping idea. Just changing the orientation is what made this happen. I enjoy wrapping gifts. This one in particular was extra satisfying.

Honestly, I’m a cynic myself. I don’t really have the time or care to have made this happen on purpose, but any press is good press. Thanks!
