Looking for ways to package and wrap all the Christmas cookies you’re making this week? We found quite a lot of good ideas in this slideshow at Better Homes and Gardens.

There were two ideas here that I particularly liked.

First, you can use cardboard mailing tubes to hold sturdy round cookies, like iced shortbread or sugar cookies. (Some people like to use Pringles tubes that have been wrapped in pretty paper!)

Second, what about giving cookies in a new baking pan? That could be a useful and also delicious gift for a baker friend.

See the whole roundup of ideas here:

How are you wrapping or packaging your cookies this year? Any especially creative ideas to share?
