Wrapped presents or in gift bag?

Do you like wrapped gifts or in gift bags? It is much easier to stick it in a bag. But wrapped presents are fun to unwrap for the recipient.  Which do you prefer?

I do both @mormel20 .  Some presents fit better is a bag while others fit well in a box.  I like a variety.

I like both.  I usually do a gift bag for adults and gift wrap for the children. I love to watch a child tear into a present.🥰

I like anything that look's pretty, bags or wrapping!

One of my aunts does the most elegant wrapping with unusual bows. You can always telll if it's a present from her.

 

And one of our neighbors wraps with the most beautiful ribbons and bows-long, intricate, gorgeous bows to keep, and paper to go with every season.

 

I don't like to wrap with those Amazon bags especially since I don't always get it from Amazon.

And then every present looks the same under the tree. 

I like to make it special for the person especially for the grandkids.

@mormel20.  Why waste a gift bag if you're going to wrap a gift?

I prefer a gift wrapped box.  Sometimes you just have to use a gift bag

@Kachina624 She didn't say that--it was an either/or question...do you prefer gifts in a bag OR wrapped?

@mormel20 If it will fit in a gift bag without the whole thing falling over, it's gift bags for me! But if someone wants to give me a wrapped gift or a gift in a bag, I'm grateful for either one.

Wrap unless I can’t figure out a box to fit.
