The Proper Way To Fold A Shirt

TieshoesThose of you who are already fanatical Jill Sobule groupies have likely signed up to be a member of her Secret Society Mystery Cult (aka, Jill's mailing list).  And if you are a Cult member then you have already seen this fantastic video of the proper way to fold a shirt (Jill learned of this video from a fan, after requesting packing and folding tips in an earlier newsletter). The video reminded me of the equally compelling presentation by Terry Moore at TED2005 on the proper way to tie your shoes. Now if someone could just show me the proper way to wrap a holiday present — that's a skill I'm desperately in need of at the moment.

I used to work for a professional gift service in Los Angeles, where I learned how to wrap gifts like a champ. The secret is double sided tape for good, clean seams. Also, you must cut the paper very close, so there is almost no excess on the sides. Measuring is important, although you can eyeball it pretty well after a few times. I don;t have a video and by the time I could make one, you'll have one from another reader. Good luck!

My mother bought me a "flipfold" (http://www.flipfold.com) before I went away to college

Thanks you really perfect one writing.I m always follow you.
