Learn creative gift-wrapping techniques at free “Wrap It Up” workshops at the Clallam Bay Library on Dec. 12 and at the Forks Library on Dec. 13. The interactive sessions will teach attendees how to wrap even the most challenging gifts, including how to make custom gift bags from wrapping paper. Each workshop is limited to 20 participants on a first-come, first-served basis. Supplies are provided and participants are welcome to bring their own gifts or empty boxes to practice with.

Beginning Dec. 15, the Clallam Bay and Forks libraries will also offer free self-serve Winter Gift Wrap Stations during library hours. Drop in to use the supplies provided or bring your own materials to wrap items away from the prying eyes of intended recipients. Donations of gift wrap, bows, and similar items are welcome.
