re-used as gift wrap! The bags were already printed with a holiday theme from Trader Joe's. |

Furoshiki

Furoshiki is the Japanese art of wrapping gifts with fabric.
A scarf, baby blanket, and dish towels are just a few ideas for using a gift as the wrapping to cover another gift inside. Do a search for Furoshiki "How-To" videos on You Tube to get even more ideas. photo & idea from: Lami Japan |
