Wrapping paper

You don’t need lots of wrapping paper to make presents look good.  Look at our tips for alternative ways of displaying your presents.

Reduce

• Buy presents that do not need to be wrapped, such as vouchers and experience gifts.
• Don’t use paper, put it in a box which can be used again and again.
• Plan the amount of paper you need.
• Paint newspaper in bright colours and use this instead of wrapping paper.

Reuse

• Take care removing the paper.  Remove the tape and use the paper again for smaller presents.

Recycle

• Recycle with your other paper.  Remove all ribbons and tape first.
