Yoko Nakazawa grew up wrapping her bento boxes with her mother using furoshiki, which is a traditional Japanese patterned cloth used to wrap items.

I started doing this 2 Christmases ago - it is a game changer! Not only is it beautiful and environmentally sound, but it makes wrapping go SO much faster. It only takes a fraction of the time of traditional wrapping! I go to a lot of thrift stores and anytime I find a pretty piece of fabric (tablecloth, pillowcase, sheet, cloth napkin, etc.) I grab it up and add it to the wrapping fabric box.

Also look in the scarves section to find lots of hair/head/neck scarves!

@@Joy21090 At our local thrift stores prices have jumped on any kind of clothing. Scarves are still nice to have but they will cost more now, at least around here.

I didn't know this was a Japanese thing, or there was a name for it - but I started wrapping gifts with quilting fabric so that my quilting friends ended up with two gifts; some cool fabric to use for their quilts and whatever was inside. :D Love the idea, hope it catches on everywhere.

I'm thrilled to have stumbled upon this video! Shared with my mother who is equally as excited to learn this beautiful art! My late Slovak grandmother would have loved this as well. Thank you for sharing 💜💖

I had a Slovak grandmother too! She was a wonderfully frugal lady but generous with her loved ones.

I'm doing this for Christmas. I bought alot of Christmas theme fabric and I love the idea that someday when I am no longer here the fabric could be passed down and be used for gift wrapping on Christmas for my grandkids or great grandkids etc...

I used to wrap the grandkids xmas presents in a new beach towel for them ... I guess I was doing furoshiki too. Dang I think I stopped doing that over Covid ... youve reminded me to start that again lol.

@Cewlbeans 4 ай бұрын

If you’re trying to be eco friendly you don’t even have to buy furoshiki cloths or if you don’t want to buy them. you can also cut squares from thrift store clothes and sheets and hem them. Can still look very cute. I personally love having some cute furoshiki patterns of fruits and stuff AND reusing pretty sheets this way.

@SaltedMoose 4 ай бұрын

Just remember that things like thrift store sheets are for people who can't afford new sheets, blankets etc.

What a wonderfully sustainable way to wrap gifts, and the cloth can be used afterwards as a scarf, a tied up bag, etc. I once tried being sustainable by reusing good condition tissue paper as gift stuffing, but some people took offense at it.😒

@Joy21090 6 ай бұрын

Anyone who takes offense is thinking more of himself/herself than he/she is thinking of our precious planet. Anything that can be re-used should be re-used.
