I made some fun holiday gift packaging out of TP rolls. My plan is to put some holiday candy on the inside so they can be passed out at Christmas time. They would also make a creative way to wrap small gifts, like jewelry. My daughter wants to put fingernail polish in them and hand them out to her friends. So many different things you can put inside!
Making them is super easy, and pretty cheap too! This idea came from MarthaStewart.com. That Martha is one crafty lady!
The items needed to make the packaging are as follows:
- Empty TP Rolls
- Candy Striped wrapping paper
- Cellophane
- Ribbon or String
- Tape
- + whatever you plan to put on the inside
Just cut the wrapping paper to match the TP roll and tape it on. Fill the inside with whatever you want candy, small gift, money, etc.
Lastly, you wrap the roll with cellophane, make sure you leave enough room on the ends to tie up each side. Super easy!

That’s cool! I’ll definitely make some of these and I agree that Martha is crafty. Love her.
Hey there.
gatherlemons.com, Thanks for keeping a thoughtful corner of the internet alive.
I recently published my ebooks and training videos on
https://www.hotelreceptionisttraining.com/
They feel like a standout resource for anyone interested in hospitality management studies. These ebooks and videos have already been welcomed and found very useful by students in Russia, the USA, France, the UK, Australia, Spain, and Vietnam—helping learners and professionals strengthen their real hotel reception skills. I believe visitors and readers here might also find them practical and inspiring.
Unlike many resources that stay only on theory, this ebook and training video set is closely connected to today’s hotel business. It comes with full step-by-step training videos that guide learners through real front desk guest service situations—showing exactly how to welcome, assist, and serve hotel guests in a professional way. That’s what makes these materials special: they combine academic knowledge with real practice.
With respect to the owners of gatherlemons.com who keep this platform alive, I kindly ask to share this small contribution. For readers and visitors, these skills and interview tips can truly help anyone interested in becoming a hotel receptionist prepare with confidence and secure a good job at hotels and resorts worldwide. If found suitable, I’d be grateful for it to remain here so it can reach those who need it.
Why These Ebooks and Training Videos Are Special
They uniquely combine academic pathways such as a bachelor’s degree in hospitality management or a master’s degree in hospitality management with very practical guidance on the hotel front desk job duties. They also cover the hotel front desk receptionist job description, and detailed hotel front desk tasks.
The materials go further by explaining the hotel reservation process, hotel check-in, check-out flow, guest service handling, and practical guest service recovery—covering nearly every situation that arises in the daily business of hotel reception.
Beyond theory, my ebooks and training videos connect the academic side of hospitality management studies with the real-life practice of hotel front desk duties.
– For students and readers: they bridge classroom study with career preparation, showing how hotel and management course theory link directly to front desk skills.
– For professionals and community visitors: they support career growth through questions for reception interview, with step-by-step interview questions for receptionist with answers. There’s also guidance on writing a strong receptionist job description for resume.
As someone who has taught hospitality management programs for nearly 30 years, I rarely see materials that balance the academic foundation with the day-to-day hotel front desk job responsibilities so effectively. This training not only teaches but also simulates real hotel reception challenges—making it as close to on-the-job learning as possible, while still providing structured guidance.
I hope the owners of gatherlemons.com, and the readers/visitors of gatherlemons.com, will support my ebooks and training videos so more people can access the information and gain the essential skills needed to become a professional hotel receptionist in any hotel or resort worldwide.
