If you wrap a gift it must look nice. How about such an Origami bow as decoration? They can surely easily be made from coloured adverts, too ;-)

Knitted Christmas Tree
This Christmas tree really impressed me: a lot of people knitted in total more than 2000 simple green leaves which form the tree.
After Christmas the tree will be dismantled and the leaves will be sewn together to make blankets for elderly people.
That’s what I call recycling ;-)

Recycled Christmas Light Bulb Brooch
Not long now to the end of Christmas. And what to do with the broken Christmas light bulbs?
A pin of course ;-)

Wrist Warmers
These wrist warmers are likely to be a very easy and quick gift and the best: you can make them for people, too, where you don’t know the wrist size ;-)

Spiral Binding Wreath
I can’t throw away anything – but as I see it, I don’t have to, because you can make something from everything, like little ornaments from the Spiral binding of a used notebook ;-))
