1. How do you care for the gift bags?
     Because they are made out of cotton, they are completely machine washable and we recommend line drying. And use COLD WATER! It takes a lot of energy to heat up water and that's a big carbon footprint to continuously wash in hot water.

3. Any suggestions for other uses for the bags?
     This is our most favorite part about our eco-friendly gift wrap. After you have given or received a Gift Wrap Green bag, you can reuse it for all sorts of things. My little girl likes to store barbies and ponies in hers and I use some for cars and dinosaurs for my boy. It is also great to store diapers, hair care products etc. Because we use the most adorable fabrics, these bags look great left out.

4. Does every bag come with a ribbon?
     Yes, each gift bag comes with a coordinating ribbon making gift giving that much easier! No hunting for tissue paper and an old squished bow from Christmas past..fresh, beautiful reausable gift bag that is fully lined with beautiful ribbon.

5. Does using fabric gift bags make a difference on the environment?
    

Absolutely!  According to the Worldwatch Institute, America consumes 30% of the world's paper. Paper and cardboard make up over 40% of the solid waste buried in North American landfills!

The manufacturing of wrapping paper requires energy which most likely comes from the burning of fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide into Earth's atmosphere. And the raw material for paper is wood. Millions of  trees are cut down just to make the holiday wrapping paper that looks good on your presents but that quickly gets ripped off and thrown away.  Researchs shows a  Co2 savings of 0.3lbs per average-sized present you wrap in alternative materials. This number reflects the energy that would have been used to manufacture the new wrapping paper you are not using. Use 6 of our bags instead of traditional wrap and it saves 2lbs of Co2!
