It’s a Wrap

Love this place. So many cute nick knacks and gift ideas. I LOVE the sale wall … go in right after a holiday is over and you can make a killing! Some of the things can be on the pricer side but I promise you’re not finding the little gems anywhere else. It is a great place to get a one of a kind gift. I’ve never utilized their gift wrapping service but I wouldn’t have any reservations doing so.

I love this store… I live down the street and come by as often as I can… everytime I go in I buy something… they have very unique gift items. and Fran and the staff are exceptional… as well as the owner, Gloria that I adore…
No other store like in that I have found… they also have great alley sales a few times a year… with bargains galore…
When you go say Marilyn sent you… they’ll know who that is… and enjoy… trust me you wont be able to go in without finding something you love…

Angels sing from the heavens.
Seriously, this place is amazing for those of us that don’t have the skills or patience to wrap gifts. Selecting the paper and all that stuff is so easy. I love their system.
Overall, their staff is GREAT and the work the do is beautiful.
If it’s a weekend or busy gift giving time of year, be prepared to wait a bit. That’s no biggie because the store has all sorts of fun gadgets to keep you busy while they wrap.

Don’t half step. If you go there last minute and expect to get styled out in a pinch it may not work… plan in advance and give them your business.

Unlike Biggie and Tupac, I am not a gifted rapper. I’m also lacking in the gift wrapping department. So, when I needed a few gifts wrapped on Monday, I headed over to It’s A Wrap in Brentwood. I found parking on the street without a problem. (But note, you can only park on the street until 4PM.)
The staff was very helpful and the whole process took about 15 minutes. There are several ideas of designs on the wall and all you have to do is select the corresponding number of which design (s) you like. The prices are not cheap though. I got 5 things wrapped, various sizes. It cost me a total of $ 41 before tax (but they supplied 4 of the gift boxes) but 4 boxes, wrapping and bows was $ 5, $ 6, $ 7, $ 9 and $ 14 respectively. That said, the gifts were wrapped meticulously and my fiancée even remarked at how they used double-​sided tape, etc. They really looked great (see my photo).
I should also note that the store itself has a lot of gifty-​type items like fancy candles, tea sets, picture frames — so it’s a good spot if you need to pick up a gift for someone in a hurry and need it wrapped.
So, yes, for sucka MC wrappers like myself, this place is great. But if you can wrap it yourself or get it wrapped at the point of purchase, save yourself some time and money. $ 35 for gift wrapping is just a bit high for me so that’s why they’re only getting 3 stars. That said, I’ll probably be returning in December.

This is our neighborhood card and gift store. They’ve got a variety of seasonal gifts and cards, plus the cutest little things you never did need for baby shower gifts. I find it to be a bit pricey for cards and wrapping, but it’s great for getting some unique wrapping when you don’t want your gift to look like you dressed it up at Target.
