Make the Giving as much fun as the Gift!
Click the box, and choose which kind of paper you want to use (there are 11 to choose from) and which color ribbon you want to go with it (11 again.)
Set the gift to be opened by a particular person, with floating text (choose from 11 colors) that has their name, and a message.
Set the date that they can open the gift. It won't open until that date has passed!
Then fill it with presents, copy or no-copy, just so they are transferable.
When the day comes, they can click on your box, and choose to Open or Wait. If they choose to Open the gift, the ribbons drop away, the top flies off, the box speaks the message you've given it to say in Chat, the sound plays, and particles shoot merrily from the open box. (Use the Default sound - a clip from "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" - or remove it and use your own! You can also leave the default particle - a snowflake - or use any texture you have for that, too!)
Everything inside is also offered to that person, of course.
All this without them having to own the box, so you can put it under the tree, and not worry about selling it to them for L$0 when the time comes to open presents!
When it's all over, and the presents have been opened, you can give them the box, or you can retrieve it, reset it, and use it again!
