“Everyone wondered how my presents turned out so perfect.”

This is usually how it goes. First you buy one for yourself in November.

Then you wrap your mum’s present and realise she needs one of her own. She likes it straight away.

On Christmas Eve your mother-in-law sees it and asks if she can have one of those. The year after, everyone in the family has their own Julsnittet.

That is why you get two.

Scissors or Julsnittet

Scissors work. They are just not made for four metres of glossy paper the night before Christmas Eve.

The Christmas gift under £15 that actually gets used

Most small Christmas gifts end up in a drawer in January. This one comes out again for the next birthday, the christening and next Christmas. It takes up no space and the blade lasts a long time.

Works as a gift for your host, for Secret Santa or in the stocking.

  • Straight edges at last

    I have wrapped presents crooked for thirty years. Now I pull it along the roll and the edge comes out straight.

  • One for me, one for my sister

    Good that you get two. The second one went in my sister’s Christmas present and she has already used it for birthdays.

  • Quick once you’ve got the hang of it

    Much faster than scissors. It took one roll to learn how hard to pull, then it just went.

  • Arrived in time for Christmas

    Ordered in mid-December and the parcel arrived several days before Christmas Eve.

And once the presents are wrapped

Snödrivan is the thick bubble blanket that takes over the whole sofa. It is as good to give away as it is to keep.
