I didn't know! Thanks. Smile

Im confused but are you going to use the non plastic selotape on wrapping paper?

One doesnt negate the other. Not trying to be argumentative but if you want to be environmentally conscientious you have to think about what youre going to be using it on.

We reuse wrapping paper. (My grandparents used to do this and I thought it was ridiculous Grin but I get it now!)

I'll use all sorts of paper including newspaper and old maps. But this post maybe isn't for the purists, maybe more for people trying to make one difference at a time. It all adds up.

Thanks, I didn't know that non-plastic tape was available. I've gone old school this year and just used string, it works well for boxes and books, not so great for soft or knobbly presents!

I hate this idea that unless you are doing everything you possibly can to save the environment, you shouldn't even try. Non-plastic tape is a great small step in the right direction, I've used wrapping paper this year, I have a bag of odds and ends of paper I've bought over the years and paper that I've saved and reused.

This is excellent news.

I've made cloth bags for some presents, but will still use wrapping paper (recyclable) for others.
