The matching sticker set includes 32 to/from labels and 40 seals.

San Diego-based Greenfield Paper Company purchases wind-generated energy credits, and creates paper products from hemp, junk mail, and the chaff of roasted coffee beans. In its holiday wrapping paper line, the company offers designs such as “Oh Deer” (pictured below), which is made from 100 percent post-consumer recycled paper with soy-based inks. A roll contains two sheets measuring 22 inches by 33.75 inches featuring a smooth satin finish.

* Fabric Reusable Christmas Gift Bags

Re-gift or reuse these colorful fabric bags with a holiday-themed green-and-red design, these bags are sturdy enough to last for years and come in sizes ranging from extra small (6.25 inches by 6.25 inches) to large (17 inches by 18.5 inches by 2 inches). A grosgrain ribbon is sewn into the side seam.

Buy reusable boxes wholesale and save big on bulk containers. Some online gift stores offers a Holiday Red Giftware box in a variety of sizes. Since these are sold in packages of 50 for large boxes and 100 for smaller sizes, you can festively package all of your Christmas gifts with only one box order. Just add a bow and tag and you have a monochromatic, Martha-Stewart-pretty collection of presents for under the tree.


Plan to reuse holiday wrapping paper, bags, and gift boxes every year – if you can keep the kids from tearing through each carefully wrapped present on Christmas morning.
