Recyclable wrapping

Reusable bags here.

Our council is refusing to take any wrapping paper in the recycling collection due to some people including metalised paper. All has to go in general waste.

I’ve used recyclable wrapping paper for a number of years now. Luckily it’s more widely available nowadays but originally I used brown paper and pretty twine.

The last two years I’ve gone over to reusable bags - makes life a lot easier!

Yes I do buy recycled when I can and I will as it’s available for the future. I recycle as much household stuff as I possibly can in fact it’s an obsession of mine. My most recent is recycling parchment paper greaseproof and foil it gets washed dried and folded up.

Yes, recyclable wrapping paper/bags were readily available this year, including the Barnardo’s charity shop where I volunteer. Good quality too!

Yes I did and was very pleased with the results. The paper actually seemed to e thicker and made the presents easier to wrap. Several of my friends used it as well.

We used bags. Some of them are about 6 years old judging by the sellotape remnants. They will reappear for years to come.

Ah! I missed them. DD sourced all of ours, although Sainbury had big rolls which I'd planned to get, because it's my nearest supermarket.

Yes, M&S did enormous rolls for £5.
