Quick Tip – Wrapping those Green Gifts?
When giving presents for the upcoming holidays (or birthdays), reuse newspaper or old wallpaper instead of purchasing wrapping paper. The recipient can laugh at last week’s “Funnie’s” section (or catch up on the news) while opening their gift.
Want to give up paper wrapping altogether? Give your loved ones gifts in canvas bags to encourage eco-friendly shopping habits.
Feeling creative? Give gifts in baskets and decorate with flowers.
