This Christmas I'm trying to scale back on my decor, spend less money and simplify things overall. Not only do I want to make Christmas a little easier and less hectic, but I also want to be more environmentally conscious by reducing waste and buying fewer things. Creating beautiful and festive decorations doesn't have to be difficult, nor involve costly materials or extravagant details. That applies to your Christmas wrapping as well! Here are 25 natural gift wrapping ideas made from simple materials and elements found in your own backyard.
You don't need special wrapping paper or bows to create unique and gorgeous packages. You can use plain craft paper, brown shipping paper, newspaper or even linen napkins. Try using twine, raffia, evergreen sprigs, pine cones, eucalyptus, rosemary, tags made from cardboard and numerous other recycled and re-purposed materials. To add a modern touch, use stamps and typed labels. These natural gift wrapping ideas offer inspiring ways to be creative and to have fun while saving money and the environment too!
