When I was a little girl, I used to wrap Christmas presents for customers at my dad's store. To this day, when I use wrapping paper rather than gift bags, I cut the paper to just the right size, and tuck the paper so that all the seams are folded and are exactly at the bottom edge of the box. I used to make bows, but don't anymore. I reuse gift boxes as long as they hold up.
I could never say this better than Gracie did, so I will humbly repeat it from my heart:
What ever you do on Christmas, may it be joyful and happy and lovely and good. May your main gifts be in your heart and to your heart. Merry Christmas from us.
