While holiday shopping can definitely be stressful, wrapping all the gifts you’ve bought can be just as taxing. Ask anyone who has spent untold December nights buried in paper and scotch tape, and they’ll tell you the worst part of the process is that awful moment when the scissors don’t glide across the wrapping paper as expected, leaving its edges jagged and sloppy-looking. Luckily, the Little Elf Gift Cutter is here to solve this problem. It, as one shopper puts it, “cuts wrapping paper in nice, straight, clean lines.”
The handy gadget is specially designed to fit around a roll of wrapping paper. When you are ready to cut, just pull your desired amount of paper through the cutter’s opening, place the end of the paper roll in the blade slot, push the device away from you and you’ll be left with a perfectly cut piece every single time.
The Little Elf first gained popularity when it was seen on Shark Tank and has quickly become a fan favorite among Amazon shoppers. More than 8,000 of them have given the holiday essential a perfect five-star rating.
One happy shopper called it a “game changer” before adding, “This product takes the frustration out of gift wrapping. I’ve been using gift bags for years due to the frustration of wrapping gifts. This year, I couldn’t wait to wrap more!”
Others say it’s a great tool to have for people who suffer from ailments like carpal tunnel syndrome or arthritis, as holding scissors can be painful. “I love wrapping, and this is a great tool,” wrote one. “I had carpal tunnel release, so grip strength or manual dexterity issues. Glad not to be using scissors, as it causes pain.”
And when you’re done wrapping gifts, shoppers say you can use the gadget to prevent the wrapping paper rolls from unraveling and creating a mess. At just $16 for a pair, The Little Elf gift cutter is an affordable way to save time and make wrapping gifts so much easier this holiday season.
