apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I work at a newspaper, and I accidentally found out that the plain brown paper all the print plates are wrapped in is silver on the inside. Now I have stacks and stacks of it. I have wrapped all my gifts in it, and instead of using ribbon, have black/red/white holiday sitckers I put on each box. Total cost for wrapping; $3 I spent on those stickers last year. Yay recycling!

I didn't see the earlier post but I suggest recycling bubble wrap as gift wrap. It comes with its own sound effects! And, can be recycled again for its original purposes.
