Unfortunately, gift wrap is not very sustainable: it can only be recycled poorly, if at all.
That's why we'd like to show you some nice alternatives, so that not only your little tree is green đ
Wrap gifts in recycled paper
If you've ordered from us before, you know that we're big fans of recycled paper.
Gifts can also be attractively wrapped in packaging material, newspaper, magazines, or children's drawings.
Very small gifts can also fit inside toilet paper rolls, for example đ§»
This not only protects the environment, but also your wallet đ«
You can find plastic-free & vegan adhesive tape HERE .
Fabrics, furoshiki or cloth handkerchief
Fabric offers a very elegant way to wrap a gift. This could be fabric scraps, a scarf/shawl, handkerchief, tea towel, bath towel, tablecloth, pillowcase, or even a furoshiki . This essentially eliminates the need for wrapping paper and looks beautiful too! đ
Useful & creative packaging
Put the homemade cookies straight into a stainless steel box , the chocolate into a Stasher Bag , the T-shirt or socks into a shopping net , the wine wrapped in a sponge cloth ; add a loop and some decoration, et voilĂ , probably the most sustainable gift wrapping âš
