Eco-Friendly Holiday Gifts-Reusable Tote Bags, Organic Foods, Seventh Generation Household Items,Natural Cosmetics & Personal Care

Instead of using traditional wrapping paper
this holiday season, consider putting
your eco-friendly gifts in a basket or
reusable tote bag instead.

More wrapping ideas:
  • Sunday comic section
  • Pages from a catalog
  • Recycled paper (think paporganics.com)
  • Fabric
  • Brown paper bag & decorate
According to Recycle Now the materials that go
into making some wrapping paper result in it not
always being accepted for recycling:wrapping paper is
often dyed, laminated and/or contains non-paper
additives such as gold and silver coloured shapes,
glitter, plastics etc which cannot be recycled.

What items to select for your gift?

Pick a theme:
  • Seventh Generation household items
  • Personal Care & Cosmetics
  • Organic Food
