DIY Sustainable Gift Wrapping Idea

Chariteas believes that sustainability includes caring for people and the land. Read below for a DIY Gift wrapping idea that minimizes one time use wrapping materials.

Things needed:

· Desk organization box, basket, or jewelry box.

· Tea or teaware from Chariteas

· Dish/kitchen towel, cloth napkin, or scarf (can be new or gently used)

·Metal or Wood Christmas Ornament

Directions:

Step 1:

Personalize the ornament with the receivers name and a favorite saying. A metal ornament and a permanent marker will do.

Step 2:

Spread out the towel or other material on a flat surface.

Step 3:

Put the desk organizer box in the center and put the tea or tea set in the box.

Step 4:

Flip the back side of the towel over the tea set. Then do the same for the front side. Adjust and make sure the ends are straight.

Step 5:

Tuck in the sides and bring the sides towards the middle.

Step 6:

Hook the ornament in the middle to tighten the wrapping.

Step 7:

Adjust the ornament to the center.

Voila! A sustainable gift wrap done for anyone on your list.
