Gigi's Green Gift Bags!



My mom, aka Georgie's Gigi has gone GREEN with her Holiday wRAP sessions. The woman has always been on top of her recycling (Gilbert Green would be very proud of Gigi!), however she has gone beyond the basics with her creative eco-flair bags this Season. She recently moved from NorCal to SoCal and had to de-clutter her life after 40+ years of being in one place and she ran across a box filled with old holiday cards (we're talking... VINTAGE Holiday Greetings from the 60's and 70's, very cool, anyway, she just couldn't bring herself to throw the entire bag in the RECYCLE, so she decided to REUSE...REGIFT if you will! Recipe for Gigi's Green Gift Bags: Step 1: Take a few old shopping bags (smaller size works best, standard 8.5 X 11 or so) Step 2: Take old holidays cards and cut the cute decorative front off and of course recycle the other half or inside message. Step 3: Glue or tape the card over the retailer logo on the bag and voila you have custom green gift bags. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
