Are you looking for a way to give eco-friendly gifts on special days? Reduce waste and get creative by making your own eco-friendly gift wrap! With billions of gift wrappers ending up in landfills every year, it’s important to find ways to show gratitude without polluting the environment.
Here are a few ideas for wrapping your presents sustainably:
Reuse and Recycle
Instead of buying new wrapping paper, consider using old magazines or newspapers as gift wrap. You can also reuse gift wrap from presents you received last year.
Upcycling fabrics as wrap
Get creative and wrap your gifts in something the recipient can use again, such as a pretty scarf, tablecloth, or tote bag.
Create your own wrapper
Personalize your gift wrap by using food or vegetable dyes to create unique prints with rolling pins. Add a touch of flair with recyclable paper ribbons and twine.
Avoid plastic tape
Try folding your gift wrap using the Japanese origami method, which doesn’t require any tape or adhesives. Check out this video for a tutorial on how to wrap presents without any tape.
