So I’m a big fan of recycling so.. on the off chance that you have gifts that you need to wrap here are some eco-friendlier options. Not to mention cheaper.
1. Wrap gifts in the bags that you have around the house. You could use the same bag that the item was in or different ones. It can turn out looking really cool and it this is a good idea for wrapping oddly shaped items that would just look strange with normal wrapping paper.
2. Wrap you gifts in old newspaper magazine pages. If you choose the right advertisements wrapping gifts in mag pages will also work for men.
3. Wrap things in other things. If your buys your … girlfriend for example a scarf wrap the scarf around the bottle of perfume your getting her. it’s a nice option.
4. Use old boxes or even Altoid cans.
5. You can put things in those small Pringles cans.
Get creative don’t waste money, paper and plastic bags. {Especially plastic bags} Not only will the gift getter be happy that you thought of them they will also be surprised to see how you wrapped you item.
