Eco-friendly Gift Wrapping Ideas

There is no holiday season sight quite as magical as perfectly wrapped gifts waiting patiently for your loved ones. Once the gifts are exchanged and smiles shared, that beautiful wrapping becomes a daunting pile destined for the bin. Thankfully, there are simple ways you can reduce your gift wrap waste without sacrificing beautiful presentation!

We take a look at five easy and eco-friendly wrapping ideas you can use this holiday season.

KRAFT PAPER Swap out traditional glossy wrapping paper for an eco-friendly alternative. Kraft paper is fully recyclable and biodegradable, and brings a natural, homely look to any gift. Personalise with a hand-written message or invite the kids to create their own work of art for your loved one.

REUSE BAGS AND BOXES Hold on to your gift bags and boxes throughout the year and give them a second life come holiday season. A sturdier alternative to wrapping paper, you can count on gift bags and boxes to last! FABRIC WRAPPING For a unique and reusable gift wrap option look to cloth and fabric wrapping. A linen napkin, scarf, or patterned tea towel secured with a simple knot makes for a quick, and beautifully presented gift with an additional surprise for your loved one to enjoy.

BIODEGRADABLE TAPE Replace your single-use sticky tape with biodegradable paper or washi tape. Made from plant-based materials and natural adhesives, these greener alternatives are available in multiple colours and patterns to compliment any gift wrap aesthetic.

DECORATE NATURALLY Bring a touch of the great outdoors to your gift by adding a decorative sprig of lavender, eucalyptus leaves, or dried citrus from the garden. Pair with plain kraft paper and natural twine for a beautiful rustic look that is fully compostable.
