The holidays are one of the happiest times of the year β but also one of the most wasteful. Between shiny paper, tape, and ribbons, so much wrapping ends up in landfill.
This year, letβs make gifting more meaningful and planet-friendly. πβ¨
At Eco Living Hub, we believe sustainability should never feel complicated or dull β and these ideas prove you can wrap gifts beautifully and protect the planet.
π 1οΈβ£ Use Brown Kraft Paper or Newspaper
Simple, classic, and 100% recyclable.
Add a sprig of rosemary, a cinnamon stick, or a recycled tag for a natural festive touch.
We love this recycled kraft paper roll β biodegradable and strong enough for any gift.
πΏ 2οΈβ£ Fabric Wraps (Furoshiki Style)
Wrap gifts in scarves, napkins, or leftover fabric β it looks elegant and can be reused for years.
Try these reusable cotton wraps β soft, washable, and perfect for eco-friendly gifting.
βοΈ 3οΈβ£ Skip the Plastic Tape
Use jute string, compostable tape, or simply fold corners neatly.
Compostable paper tape holds well and matches kraft paper beautifully.
π 4οΈβ£ Decorate Naturally
Dried oranges, pinecones, cinnamon sticks, or holly leaves smell amazing and look festive.
Biodegradable twine + a dried orange slice = perfect rustic charm. π
π 5οΈβ£ Reuse Old Cards & Boxes
Cut last yearβs Christmas cards into gift tags, reuse boxes, and turn old tissue paper into stuffing. Zero cost β zero waste.
π Final Touch
Eco wrapping is about creativity, not perfection. Each wrap tells a story β and shows care for both the person and the planet. π
