You have eight nights of gifts to give, which means eight gifts to wrap, but are you just going to use a regular piece of wrapping paper? If you’re looking to expand your wrapping horizons this Hanukkah, we have a new idea for you.
The idea comes from St. Louisan Duffy Hofer.
“I made this product out of frustration every year around the holidays. I have two boys (now 13 & 15). As they started getting older, the gifts they want come in very recognizable shaped boxes (cell phone, video game, wireless headphones). I spent too much time trying to come up with ways to disguise the box to make it more fun,” said Hofer.
Out of this frustration and need, Hofer designed Disguise The Surprise to solve this problem for all of us. It’s a set of dividers that you arrange around your one special item in a shirt box to disguise or use the dividers to make your own multi-item gift box.
“If a parent is giving their child a special gift (cell phone, AirPods, video game, jewelry box), they can use the Disguise The Surprise dividers to disguise the item in a shirt box,” said Hofer. “Kids are looking for small rectangular or square-shaped boxes, not a shirt box, so when they lift the lid and see something way cooler (something they really wanted) that is where the excitement comes in.”
Feel free to get creative and make your own “8 Days of Hanukkah” box. Hofer sells small 2” boxes on her website in packs of 8. You can pick from white or silver colors, which would be good for Hanukkah. Make small labels to number each box 1-8. Fill the boxes with small items and each night kids can open one of the boxes, leading to the final 8th night.
“One example would be if you were giving a girl a charm bracelet for the holiday,” said Hofer. “Put the actual bracelet in box #1. Then put a different charm in each of the other boxes. So each night she gets to open up a new charm to add to her special bracelet. You could use tissue paper or cotton to raise the charm to the top of the box. For boys, you could fill with Lego characters, football Teenymates…any small fun items relating to their favorite things!”

“This is a new concept, and I am super excited to share it,” said Hofer. “The dividers are an eco-friendly gift wrapping solution. Gift bags only get a few uses and then have to be thrown away. You can use these dividers over and over again with the durability of the material. Every little bit helps.”
