I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
I was hoping that more people would discover and enjoy it if I shared it here.
I actually sent it out as a holiday card using youtube. :-)
Happy Holidays!

Hi
I found your comments on line and tried to look up the movie “the gift wrapper” and can not find it to rent or purchase any where. May I ask how you found this movie and how can I find it.
Also if you know of any other good Christmas or Holiday movies that you would like to share, I would be most grateful.
Thank you in advance
Rose

I’ve had some questions about the wonderful lead actress, Wendy Allyn, in “The Gift Wrapper”.
I found information about her here:
