Furoshiki
What’s the
biggest garbage
pickup day in the
United States? By
far, the day after
Christmas when
thousands of tons of
trash go landfills
to pollute the
environment.
What’s furoshiki?
The ancient Japanese
tradition of
wrapping gifts in
cloth. Recently,
furoshiki is making
a comeback in a big
way. The Japanese
government has even
published a guide to
show you different
ways of folding the
cloth.
Check it out here.
Any cloth will
do. Be as simple or
as fancy as you
like. Some of the
fabrics are so
exquisite, that the
wrapping actually
becomes the gift!
Now imagine all
those mountains of
rotting paper gone,
and all the money
you can save by
using an
environmentally-friendly
packaging… |
