DIY Christmas gift wrapping ideas with natural materials are a great way to save the environment. Brown paper, newspapers and music sheets are great wrapping ideas but what to do with Christmas gifts with unusual shape? You can wrap them roughly in paper and tie a bow or opt for gift bags made of fabric. For example burlap bags are a great choice which will work with your rustic or vintage theme. You can stamp the burlap Christmas bag with Christmas motifs, you can add strings and the best thing is that those are reusable and will not go into the dustbin once the Christmas gift is unwrapped. Like any other material – you can either buy textile gift wraps or craft them as a DIY project for the holidays. You can choose a different holiday print for every member of the family – stars, showmen, Santa Claus, reindeer – anything that will make them happy.
