Even though there are no official statistics, there is no doubt: Christmas is the time of the year when a huge amount of waste is produced, especially from wrappings, Christmas decorations, and packages from the products.
Fortunately, the trend has dictated to follow a more ecological line, through more conscious and environmentally friendly choices. From giving sustainable gifts to using recyclable and reusable wrapping, in order to minimize the environmental impact this season.
And because eco-friendly Christmas wrapping can also be pretty, In & Out Cooking gives you suggestions of eco-friendly alternatives to conventional wrapping. Shall we do it?
1. Homemade Christmas wrappings
In this case, you have two options: have the kids in the house draw or paint on paper large enough to be used for gift wrapping, or make your own designs. Why not use neutral recycled wrapping paper and draw little bows or stars on top? It will be a very special and personalized gift wrap!
3. Wrapping in fabric
Using fabrics is also an environmentally friendly way to wrap your gifts. Look carefully at what you have in your house, from scraps stored in the drawer to some Christmas (or not) pieces that you want to get rid of. Adapt the fabric to the shape of the gift or create Christmas bundles like the ones in the picture.
4. Using what you already have
Do you still have leftover wrapping paper from last year in your drawer? In that case, avoid buying new ones and use what you already have at home. But, if you really want to buy some, choose recycled paper wrapping.
5. Adding rustic elements
Add rustic and natural details like ropes, leaves, cinnamon sticks, and small pine or olive branches. These details show concern for offering something personalized and match perfectly with a Christmas background.
