Have you been nautical or nice? Take your present wrapping game to the next level

Throughout the years my dad and I have had some duke-out contests wrapping the holiday gifts. We aren’t just talking about fancy bows and ribbons here. Oh no…one Christmas all of my presents were shaped like pyramids, while all of his presents were in double duct-taped boxes. Yeah…it get’s real in Casa de Warneke.

This season, in an effort to be more sustainable and offset the gajillion holiday catalogs I have received in the mail (seriously Brookstone it’s getting ridiculous) I decided to go a different route.

Sacrificing a small stack of old Alert Diver mags, I wrapped this years gifts in an assortment of my favorite squishy creatures.

Deck the Halls with Bows and Tentacles…Fa la la la la lala la la.
Nothing says a ruined Silent Night for this macaques than the impending SAND STRIKER OF DOOM!
We fish you a Merry Christmas…
…we fish you a Merry Christmas…
…we FISH you a Merry Christmas from this Astroscopus gattutus right here!
No sea-themed wrapping job is complete without an appearance of the West Marine 2016 Holiday Catalog.
And Wah-la! Presents as educational as they are fun to look at. Happy Wrappings!

  1. This is awesome! I’ve been wrapping gifts in alert diver magazines since I’m too cheap to buy paper, so I’m glad to hear someone else is doing some nautical up-cycling!
