That is a great idea. I like it. Yes boxes can be expensive and especially if you have to mail it to some one. A couple of yesrs ago we gave Mom a 19" flat screen tv for her bedroom for her birthday and we didn't have any wrapping paper so I knew she needed a certain type of fabric and I had a few yards of fabric so we wrapped the tv in the fabric! So it was like 2 gifts in one type of thing. Now that wasd pretty cleaver too. Have a great dsay, Huggies, Fay
