We love to give gifts, no matter the occasion. We also love receiving them. What’s less lovely is the waste material left over from the average gift: crumpled wrapping paper, knotted, kinked ribbon, and used greeting cards. Card. Paper. Ribbon. offers up truly creative ways to make use of these gift-giving leftovers:

• Turn old greeting cards into gorgeous handmade paper, and then bind it into a beautiful fabric-covered journal. What a great way to make next year’s gifts from this year’s cards!

• Transform torn and crumpled gift wrap into an oilcloth-like fabric, and then use it to sew yourself a wallet or a handy zipper pouch. Make your accessories 100% yours!

• Save all that used curling ribbon and incorporate it into your knitting and crochet. It adds strength and sparkle to a crocheted market bag and a useful knitted basket.

  1. What a fantastic book! I just recently wrote a blog post (for my work’s blog) about this topic and I think it’s a great thing to get behind. We often are very thrifty and keen on recycling in other areas of our lives but this one tends to often slip through. Plus I love the idea of recycling gift wrapping and cards… in a crafty way! Thanks for the heads up – I’m off to buy this book!
