1000 Flowers for the Planet - #294 Use Gift Bags Properly
Gift bags were supposed to
be a revolutionary invention. Their intention was that they should be reused,
and often they are. But they were also meant to replace wrapping paper, which
is usually a single use product, unless you’re the type who carefully unwraps a
present to save the paper and use it again. Even then, the life span of a piece
of wrapping paper is limited, and gift bags were supposed to be the answer to
that. However, many people still wrap their gifts before putting them into the
gift bag. This is not the proper way to use the gift bag. Here are the
instructions: pick up your gift, pop it into a gift bag, present it to the
recipient. There’s no need for fancy tissue paper fluffed up over the top or
any other form of wrapping paper or concealment. The bag hides the gift. Then
the bag may be reused over and over, reducing landfill, reducing the use of
valuable resources and saving money.
