The Importance of Good Lighting While Gift Wrapping

Keep things well lit. The more light the better. You want the same amount of light you use while cooking or writing/reading.

Kitchens are usually good. Under cabinet lighting can help.

Dining rooms are usually too dim, especially at night. Some additional task lighting may be required. Bring in a lamp or two to increase the reflected, ambient light level.
