]]> It’s time to forget about shiny wrapping paper and plastic ribbons that, in most cases, aren’t even recyclable, and to adopt more eco-friendly gift wrapping habits. There are many ways you can make your presents as sophisticated and beautiful, and these are only a few of them.

Old paper

Give your presents a romantic rustic vibe by wrapping them in old newspapers, pages of old books or magazines used wrapping paper or any other paper for that matter. Using your creativity can look surprisingly good, plus you’ll be saving the planet.

Hallo, fröhliche Weihnachtsgesellschaft. Hört mal! So typisches Geschenkpapier hat irgendwie kein sehr fröhliches Leben, oder? Eingepackt, ausgepackt, ab in den Müll. Also le Papier. Und eine nachhaltige Alternative zu le Plastik ist le Papier by the way auch nicht. Das möchte man immer gerne meinen mögen. Weil das ja schön und praktisch wäre. Ist aber nicht so. Is so. Deswegen verpacke ich meine Weihnachtsgeschenke jetzt mit Grünzeug und Müll. Äähh.. Altpapier. Also Geschenkpapier aus dem Müll. Aus dem Müll gerettetes Altpapier, das ein neues Leben als Geschenkpapier führen darf. Neues Leben für le Altpapier. Wie krass ist das denn bitte!? It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life, for me, and I'm feeeliiing goood – trällert le Altpapier, das jetzt Geschenkpapier ist, da doch glatt daher. Echt. Es ist hart happy. Ich fühl's! In diesem Sinne: Frohes verpacken & make Altpapier great again. #müll #altpapier #weihnachten #nachhaltigesweihnachten #nachhaltigleben #zerowaste #zerowasteweihnachten #reducewaste #achtsamkeit #bewusstleben #nachhaltigkeit #ökotante #zerowastechristmas #geschenkeeinpacken #nachhaltigegeschenke #geschenkeverpacken #müllvermeidung #giftwrapping #sustainablegiftwrapping

Reusable tote bags

One can never have enough reusable tote bags, right? Use one of many totes you probably have in your home as a gift bag, and the recipient will probably be more than happy to use it in the future.

Old fabric

Use old shirts, dish towels, scarves, leftover satin, lace, and other fabric to wrap your gifts. It’s a creative way to give them a personal touch and amaze your friends, plus it’s an eco-friendly way to get rid of all the unnecessary fabrics you have in your home.

Continuing my little series of eco tips but with a Christmas twist, Tip no.6 for low waste living is to wrap your gifts as sustainably as possible. In this picture, I used dish towels that were gifted to me by @exploreterra20 . The towels become part of the gift. I wrote a blog post for Terra 20´s website on 5 ideas for zerowaste gift wrapping. Their site is on my profile and if you scroll down you can read my article. Thanks Val @val_loves_nature for the idea of using a pillowcase! 😊 I’ll post this week a few more sustainable gift wrapping ideas.🎄 In most cities, including Ottawa, wrapping paper made with foil, bows and ribbons cannot be recycled. This is why it’s important to use wrapping that can be reused. How are you planning to wrap your Christmas gifts this year?🎄 📷taken by my dearest friend since my arm is still shaky⛄#zerowaste #zerowastegift #zerowastegiftwrapping #ecofriendly #ecoliving #lowwaste #plasticfree #reducereuserecycle #reuse #sustainablegiftwrapping #christmaspresents #christmasgifts #alliwantforchristmasisyou #bethechange #trashisfortossers #trashfree #trashfreeliving #exploreterra20 #ottawa #myottawa #myottawalife #puns #punsworld #punsworldwide

]]> At Christmas time, an immeasurable amount of wrapping paper is thrown away each year. Although wrapping paper is made of paper, which is recyclable, it also often comes with non-recyclable additions. Any paper coated with glitter, plastic and synthetic incs ends up in a landfill. It might look great under the tree, but it doesn’t look so great when it ends up as bad news for the environment.

In order to ensure your wrapping paper is recyclable, try scrunching a piece of it up. If it stays, it is recyclable, if it falls apart, it is coated with plastic.

Eco blogger Karl Arnell says: “There are lots of different alternatives when it comes to wrapping a gift, so it’s about finding a wrapping style that works for you. Try and think about it in advance and save little things throughout the year – scraps of paper, things that come with deliveries – that can be reused.”

Here are some cute eco-friendly wrappings for inspo:

Use string instead of tape:
