recycled paper gift wrap

    I decided to use recycled paper products to wrap christmas gifts this year. I used kraft paper as wrapping paper, and made a reycled paper bow instead of using a store-bought plastic ribbon bow. I seriously don't know why they don't maker paper bows; it only makes sense considering the fact that people just throw it away after they open the gift.

      I completely agree with you about paper bows. I've been trying to make bows with my netflix slips. Still not as perfect as yours!

      I love to keep all my bows and bags too. I designed these clips to help with that so I didn't need tape. you can to attach your bows to gift bags, baskets and other things without tape so you can reuse them again and again. Then I found these cool pull bows that ship and store flat so they never get smashed. I wanted to be green by reusing and re-purposing and reducing waste
      I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on them.....here is a link to a Youtube video showing them in action.
