I tested this out and scrapped the idea. I ordered a seamless bg green paper and I am going to wrap a plastic cube in wrapping paper to be used as a seat and then wrap a few boxes up for gifts. I'll probably use a string of lights as an accent, I got some lights that don't get hot. I'll be shooting using a 500w halogen lamps.

Here comes the next question... can I use a normal gel with a 500w halogen lamp? I just want to try out the halogen lamps. I have a friend that likes them more than strobes.
