Hi, I'm Karina Fraley for Expert Village. Today I'm giving you some ideas to use recycled items to wrap your Christmas gifts. Of course we all now about saving the bags, wrapping paper and the bows and reusing them. Of course everybody does that but you can actually take it a step further and use some household items that are just laying around. Something like a coffee can or a glass jar, old calender paper, little scraps of fabric and yarn lots of different things you can use to really embellish a gift wrapping. It makes it seem a lot more personalized like if you took this little extra time side from just going to store picking up some wrapping paper. Look around your house, pick out some items that look like they can be reused and get creative. I'm going to give you some ideas but certainly take the ideas and run with them. There is all kinds of things around your house I'm sure that you can use to create some really cute and unique wrapping.
