Crafty Ways to Upcycle Your Holiday Wrappings
Get Crafty With These Creative Ways to Reuse Holiday Wrapping Paper
A guest post by Eco Karen - the blog about eco-conscious life
Every year, it's estimated that millions of pounds of wrapping paper end up in landfills. While some types of wrapping paper like Wrappily are recyclable & compostable, most other brands of wrapping paper found in stores have mixed materials that make them a one-and-done experience before ending up in a landfill. The same applies to ribbons, bows, and other fixtures. Yet, wrapping paper is a part of the gift-giving experience, and creates a sense of excitement on holidays and special occasions.
Fortunately, you can reuse wrapping paper to turn it into a fun craft or decor to cut back on waste. Here are 12 creative ways to reuse wrapping paper and mitigate your carbon footprint:
Make gift tags
It's never too early to think ahead to the next gift-giving season. Save last year's wrapping paper to make gift tags for the upcoming holiday, rather than purchasing more disposable tags from the store. Reuse gift wrapping paper by cutting out the unique patterns and shapes, attaching to card stock (or the back of upcycled holiday cards) to transform and upcycled gift wrap into gift tags!
Pro tip: you can also use the covers from old holiday cards for the same purpose.

Bookmarks
There's an eternal struggle between those who dog-ear the pages of their books and the purists who refuse to fold. If you find yourself in the latter category, you can use your leftover wrapping paper to make bookmarks. Even better, you can give them as gifts in an attempt to convert your dog-earring friends.
Reuse an old cereal box to cut out the base of your bookmark. Then, glue wrapping paper around it to contain the cardboard. You can even reuse your ribbon by punching a hole at the top of the bookmark and stringing it through.
This craft is also a great way to reuse a gift bag that has tears or isn’t suited to repackage gifts in the future. As gift bags already have structure, you won’t even need to add cardboard. Make a traditional bookmark, or a simple page corner marker.

Make a photo frame, or just frame it
There are a few ways you can make a photo frame with reused wrapping paper. The first method follows the cereal box repurposing strategy listed above. Conversely, you can upcycle an old photo frame with your wrapping paper and some Mod Podge. This craft is a great way to use tissue paper or wrapping paper that’s crumpled or damaged.
Framing wrapping paper is a fun, seasonal decoration that's easy to throw together and offers a unique twist on traditional holiday decor. The festive patterns will spark memories of holidays gone by.

Line plain bookshelves
Wallpaper is making a comeback in the world of interior design. Lining the back of a bookshelf is a fun way to add a pop of color that brings the room together.
Instead of wallpaper, try the same craft with your favorite gift wrap. Birthday balloons and festive snowmen might not suit your everyday decor, but those nicer matte and metallic papers can make a bold statement.

Dress up a bouquet of flowers
When it comes to traditional gifts, fresh-cut flowers are a great way to say thank you, I love you, I'm sorry, and congratulations. Rather than adding to the landfill problem with new cellophane wrapping, elevate your bouquet by wrapping it in reused wrapping paper.
For a fun spring or summer twist, put your bouquet in a homemade paper basket instead. This crafty way to reuse wrapping paper makes a great centerpiece for a picnic or event.
As a fun alternative that you can keep forever, use the leftover paper to make paper flowers. The crinkles in used wrapping paper create a nice, organic texture that brings the decor to life. These are also a great alternative to ribbons and bows.

Paper Cones Christmas tree
Paper cone Christmas trees are a fun craft for the holiday season. Use your old wrapping paper to make a bright, festive Christmas tree decoration to display throughout the holiday season.
This craft is kid-friendly and a great way for them to make gifts for friends and loved ones.

Wrap books
Keeping books safe from harm is the purpose of a dust cover. Unfortunately, dust covers tend to bear the brunt of a book's existence, quickly falling apart to wear and tear. Whether you're trying to protect an old favorite or keeping textbooks pristine to re-sell, wrapping paper can help.
Cut the wrapping paper with an inch of excess space around the border of your book. Then, fold the paper around the cover and secure it in place with tape.
You can even add a pocket to your book cover for extra storage!

Party Piñatas
Piñatas add fun to any type of party. If the idea of blindfolding your guests and giving them a bat doesn’t appeal, you can reuse wrapping paper and old ribbons to make a miniature party piñata. As you’re cutting the materials into small bits, wrinkles and tears don’t matter. This is also a great way to reuse old tissue paper.
Check out this step-by-step piñata tutorial for inspiration. The miniature version makes a great, individual party favor. Replicate the experience by cutting a tab at the bottom, filling it with treats, taping it up, and attaching your reused ribbon so it opens with a quick pull.
You can also reuse wrapping paper, ribbons, and bows to make other party decor elements, like hats, garland, and cupcake toppers.

Plantable Seed Bomb Easter Eggs
Use your uncoated wrapping paper and leftover tissue paper to make seed bomb Easter eggs as a fun, eco-friendly spring gift. This craft is a great alternative to candy Easter eggs or messy egg dye experiments.
If you can’t find all the eggs, there’s peace in knowing that you’re helping the environment rather than harming it. Everyone who finds their eggs gets the joy of planting them and watching them bloom!

Paper napkin pockets
Bring your holiday meal to life with designer-inspired place settings. For this project, you can use your wrapping paper to create elegant napkin pockets to hold your napkins in place. You can also elevate this look with some simple origami to make your arrangement even more elegant.

Paper pinwheels
Paper pinwheels are a fun decor piece for any season and a simple craft to pass the time on a rainy day. All you need is your reused wrapping paper, metal brads, small dowel rods, and a tack or nail. Make your pinwheel double-sided by sticking two pieces of wrapping paper together with the decorated side facing outward.

Make a Colorful Paper Kite
Finally, use your wrapping paper to make a simple paper kite. This child-friendly craft will keep the kids busy for hours as they create, decorate, and fly their kites around outside. While these kites won't fly too high, they're great for catching a breeze in the backyard and make cute party decorations. Old ribbons and bows also make great additions to the tail of your paper kite.
