Of great salvation to the holiday gift-giving procrastinator is a Web full of sites to download and print wrapping paper. Avoid wrapping big boxes with the stuff (takes way too much tape) but it’s ideal for the tschotshkes: CDs, mugs or dinosaur staple removers. Even for a pair of socks.
– At Hewlett-Packard’s Web site (www.hp.com, search for “wrapping paper”) you can even download a prewrapped gift box for small items. Wrapping-paper themes range from baby gifts to graduation presents.
– One easy do-it-like-Martha tip: Use a favorite digital photo for gift wrap.
– And if you think your digital pic is extra cute, you can turn it into a 36-by-48-inch roll of wrapping paper for $12.95 at www.bignose.com. But do us all a favor: Don’t turn those holiday photo cards of your toddler into a big roll of wrap. Consider it overkill.
