The hosts were so annoying in this segment. Talking over Katie all the time! That was brutal to watch!!

I found it stressful the one host especially ..I ended up shutting off the volume and just watching ..I felt bad for the gal trying to demonstrate ..

Looks nice. It would be nice if Hooda wouldn’t keep interrupting the guest. It’s hard to understand what’s she is saying.

@grayb7420 Жыл бұрын

After years of hearing,”it’s too pretty I don’t want to unwrap it!” I now use boxes with separate lids whenever I can. They just lift the lid and then keep the box as part as the present. It’s good for the environment too!

The fact that the "pro" didn't even TUG on the ends to make snugger around the present gave me the ocd jingle's.

I bet you are too. Just crease every time you do a fold and do the ribbon here like she did.

The poor instructor had to deal with her like shes a little loud child .. goodness

@cwayzums Жыл бұрын

And she was clearly pressed for time because the ribbon was her highlight so she was hurrying them along and ended up with a twisted ribbon.

When she showed the ribbon she said, “there’s no twist on the bottom” who else caught the twist on the “bottom?” But the trick to perfect gift wrapping is creasing.

@grantcivyt Жыл бұрын

There was a twist but it was fixable. I think she meant you're not stuck with a twist.

@zekevictor 8 ай бұрын

no.... the twist is on the top-where you will tie the bow. the point is there is no twist on the bottom, so that it will sit flat and look flat. it's perfectly fine in the video, you just didn't get it m8

6 minute is not long enough for this segment! This was a really interesting and useful segment that needed about 2 more minutes, at least. I don't like when they have these short segments and it isn't finished, so they rush the very end. GRRRRRR!

@mikumikubeemz Жыл бұрын

agree but i feel like if this segment lasted for even a second longer the instructor would have exploded in anger from the amount of times she got talked over by the hosts 😭

Aack! Don't tape the paper to the box! And putting the overlap at the edge of the box creates bulk in the worst place - makes it harder to fold the ends neatly. It's better to overlap the paper in the center where it will likely be covered with ribbon anyway.

This poor instructor did the best she could with the incompetence she was given. Here's an idea, if you stop talking over her you just might learn something. That's just an idea though. They clearly aren't very perceptive to other people's ideas, so I'm probably just wasting words here.

Could have been a very useful videos if the tall lady who doesn’t know how to gift wrap wouldn’t systematically interrupt the lady here to teach us how to gift wrap and prevent any clear instructions being presented. Nothing worse than people utterly incapable of not speaking for even a whole minute. Why invite over an expert if the people who know nothing won’t let her speak.
