Help your gifts stand out this year by making your own sustainable wrapping. Instead of using paper, give old fabrics a new lease of life with natural dye and decorations made from foliage. Family and friends will love the effort you have gone to and they can reuse the fabric themselves in the future. Instead of getting tangled in a flurry of sellotape, take inspiration from the traditional Japanese ‘furoshiki’ style of fabric wrap.
