No Waste, Ridiculously Easy DIY Gift Wrap

We did a major spring cleaning a couple years ago and part of that spring cleaning included pairing down our gift wrap supplies. Since then, we've used more reusable items when wrapping gifts.

Our favorite way to wrap gifts for each other (we still use traditional gift wrap or bags for others) is to use our playsilks.

To make this a completely no-waste gift wrap, we like to use ribbon or twine.

You could even just tie the silk and eliminate the use of ribbon if you wanted to but we like dressing it up a bit.

Sometimes we also use washi tape, which is fun and still gives the gift receiver the feel of tearing the paper open. 🙂

Find all the supplies we use here.
