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.
