You walk into the craft room to wrap a present and you notice that all of your rolled wrap is coming unrolled and the paper is tearing.

This is easy to prevent in the future.  The next time that you use up a roll up wrapping paper, use the empty cardboard tube from gift wrap.  Don’t have any paper that you are going to use up soon?  Grab and empty toilet paper roll or even one from paper towels.

Cut the empty cardboard tube lengthwise from the top to the bottom.  Tightly roll up your wrapping paper and slip the cardboard roll over it, securing the loose edge of the gift wrap into place.
