CHANGE - recycled wrapping for presents

I love wrapping presents but last year decided to completely change my approach. I bought a huge roll of brown paper and have wrapped every gift I've given since then in brown paper - I've drawn on them, used old cards to decorate them, old ribbon I had lying around or simply used string. Once I started looking, I found lots of stuff around the house I could use up and loads of decorating ideas on-line. (Pinterest is great for this). 

This helps the environment and saves money - especially at Christmas.
