╔═ eX's ═══════════════════════════════════════════╗ ❉ ~ Christmas Present Preparation Guide ~ ❉ ╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ 1. Secure your gift. (Make sure to bind the up very tightly so they can't escape!) 2. Fit your captive with a snug-fitting rubber or leather catsuit, for no other reason than because they're sexy and alluring. Ensure that any bits or pieces you'd like to keep exposed are, well, exposed. (And if so, exclude those areas from all further steps.) 3. Gag and/or muzzle your gift very thoroughly so they won't wake anybody up during the night! Fitting them with a sensory deprivation hood is also recommended. (You may also want to fit them with mitts at this point, if they have sharp claws.) 4. Mummify your gift from head to toe! You can use either classic bandages/gauze wrappings, rubber ones, duct/bondage tape, or some other effective material-- just make sure they won't be doing any squirming around! 5. Fit your gift into a snug sleepsack, or some other similarly thick encasement. (Remember to secure those straps tightly!) 6. Apply one or two more layers of wrappings now-- tape will probably work best here! --then wrap your gift up properly with festive wrapping paper. (They should be pretty much completely immobilized at this point, so you shan't have to worry about the paper being torn or broken from their struggling. Still, extra layers never hurt! Another option is simply to use festive-colored tape, so that the tape itself is the final wrapping.) 7. Finally, tie a ribbon or slap a bow onto your gift, and make sure the tag is addressed properly. Your gift is all ready to be opened (or perhaps, /not/ opened) on Christmas Day! ( 8. Also, don't forget to include lots of fun toys and accessories as stocking stuffers! )
