Wrap Up Gifts In A Green Way - Recycled Gift wrap

If you have gifts to give why not get creative with the wrapping? Why should we go out and buy lots of wrapping paper and bows? When we can make them from recycled stuff around the house. Most people know that you can reuse the funny papers. Housewarming party's can use up the Home and Garden part of the paper. Why not use the Stock Pages for a brokers party? Or use the cover of gardening magazines for a that party this spring. Its good save the tissue paper from stores like Victoria's Secret to use latter for wrapping. Same goes for Ribbons and bows - If you save them then they will then they will be there. Its fun to wrap something in a brown shopping bag, just turn it inside out, then draw on harts or polka dots. This is a great way for kids to add a special touches to their friends gifts. Fabric is a good gift wrap. You can even make bows out of fabric, like bow ties. Lace is always an easy way to dress up a package. When you buy flowers for your house save the paper wrapped around them. Most have little harts or flowers on them and can be used for mothers day, an anniversary or a wedding. Take a look around your house before you send out another stack of Cd's to your friends and at least tie a bow around them. Everyone likes to feel special by opening wrapped gifts.
