In my ongoing efforts to send less to the landfill, I've committed to choosing more eco-friendly gift-wrapping options. Unless wrapping paper is labeled 'recyclable,' it's likely not.
Our advice if you're looking to be more sustainable this holiday season: wrap gifts with upcycled newsprint or paper bags, or Kraft paper, which is recyclable and biodegradable, then add beauty and creativity via one of these seven ribbon-based wrapping methods from The Ribbon Studio.
To create these gift toppers, cut out a 1-inch paper circle and glue on 2-inch lengths of ribbon to create a spiral shape.
To fabricate these tassels, cut 8 to 10 pieces of 1/4-inch ribbon; fold them in half; pinch together and wrap thread around several times near the top of the folds before tying with a double knot.
