HERALD WANT ADS. FIXING UP the NOME <Duuce>(^teifa, How to Wrap Christmas Package* TOOTHING brightens up the A * Christmas scene quite as much as a wide variety of colorfully wrapped gift packages. If you save, during the year, bits of ribbon and unusual pieces of bright paper, your holiday gifts will cause a great deal of comment. One quick and easy source of colorful wrappings is wall paper. If you have no roll ends of paper saved from house refurbishing, ... - i?im mm i . --?> start a "bank" of wrapping ma terial by purchasing several rolls of inexpensive wall paper at the local paint shop. Some years ago we had a wax ing seal made for use at Christmas. It carries a holiday greeting and our names. After wrapping a pack age we put a piece of red ribbon around the center and held it in place with a dab of hot green seal ing wax carrying the seal impres sion. Don't be afraid to do the unusual when wrapping gifts. Sometimes it's fun to camouflage the contents to keep the recipient guessing until the last minute. A narrow packr~2 can be rolled in paper that extents several inches beyond the ends, then pull the excess together au each end like the top of a with a bright bow of ribbon. Tn same technique can be used w!;.h ^ square squat package, by v':r* the bottom in regular fashi* i'.\ - :\ putting a "sack top" on it wiui ribbon or cord.
