A little Christmas DIY

Far from wanting to make this another DIY/lifestyle blog, I still wanted to share this with you: such a great way to wrap Christmas presents responsibly! I used a Starbucks takeaway bag here but I'm sure there's other pretty bags out there you could use. Most of all, it's eco-friendly: all those gift wraps just land in the garbage can anyway, so why not save money and save trees at once? Plus, you can easily personalize your presents as I did (and believe me, I really can't draw, so if I can do this anyone can). Triple win!





I also did a version with a Starbucks takeaway cup, but I forgot to take a picture. Just make sure you wash it well! I covered it with a piece of paper and a rubber band, like those old jam jars. It looked pretty sweet! If you are annoyed by the logo, you can easily cover that by sticking a piece of paper on top of it and writing a personal message on it. The people I have tried it with loved it so far!
