Gift-wrapping during the holidays can be tedious and difficult and for the not so artistic fellows, these x-shaped rubber bands will definitely help streamline the process.
Although some people absolutely love wrapping gifts, others find absolutely no pleasure in the laboriously meticulous task. Featured in the Humble Masterpieces, these elastics are now available for sale in an assortment of colors and sizes. These elastics look like nothing more than sliced up rubber bands but once stretched out, they present some pretty funky designs that no gift wrapper can replicate. The x-shaped rubber bands can stretch vertically as well as horizontally, providing a wider reach so visually unappealing adhesives like clear or Christmas-themed tape can be eliminated. Plus, these elastics are easily removable so guests can reuse them next Christmas or even for another occasion.
