Reusable bread bags |
I've had a lot of people asking me how to make something, or where to get an item from, or how they can make it themselves.
Beeswax Wraps Plastic Wrap Alternative |
All the items are easy to make, and are not only a great gift, they are also a great talking point. When you gift these items, it gives you the opportunity to not only explain how they work, but also make people more aware of the disposable way in which we currently live, and introduce a way of reducing their waste and living more sustainably (without freaking them out or lecturing them!).
I have made all of these items, and blogged about them previously, follow the links to find out more on how to make each one.
My pack includes; A cotton bread bag (made from a 100% cotton tea towel). Three felted dryer balls, and two reusable beeswax wraps.
A Handmade Sustainable Gift Pack Your friends and the environment will thank you! |
These are the items I included in a gift pack, however you include any number of things. Items that you might prefer to make, or already make. Items such as shampoo bars, a pot of flowers, or even herbs, in a handmade pouch (as pictured). Even a few good old handmade handkerchiefs! There are a myriad of possibilities.
Great idea Karen, and I like the idea of adding hankies. Could also add reusable produce bags.
