C.R.A.F.T. #5: Recycled Gift Wrap

February 13, 2010 By Jamie Dorobek 8 Comments

Recycled gift wrap ideas

My love to wrap presents in reusable things started for a few reasons:

1. It’s free and less wasteful than wrapping paper!
2. It made me sad to throw away perfectly good boxes.
3. I lived in tiny apartments and had no where to store things like wrapping paper!

I have used all kinds of boxes including: cereal boxes (kids cereals are colorful, fun, and big enough to wrap an adult shirt), oatmeal containers (these are good for so many things), fruit snacks, and cake boxes. Open up the pantry, and I promise you will find all kinds of good boxes to wrap gifts.

    I love this idea and your blog! I will be featuring you tomorrow at my Penny Pinching Party.
    BTW, link up to my party from your post next time (no big deal for this time, I saw that you mentioned that you linked up in a later post). I really do hope you link up more of your really great ideas.
