Your Green Kitchen
Organic Cotton Furoshiki Gift Wrap
Nakusp, British Columbia, Canada
Meet the Winter Box eco-friendly swap - reusable gift wrap from Your Green Kitchen. Your Green Kitchen creates zero waste kitchen linens and supplies. Linens are 100% GOTS organic cotton and include eco-friendly water-based inks. Save paper and go low waste this holiday season with a reusable cotton Furoshiki gift wrap that can also be used as a table centrepiece once opened. Furoshiki is a square piece of cloth or fabric used for gift wrapping, transporting items, fashion, and home decor. Furoshiki originated in Japan around 710 B.C. and was primarily used to wrap important goods and treasures found in Japanese temples! Nowadays Furoshiki is growing in popularity worldwide as a sustainable way to wrap gifts. Your Winter Box will include a how-to card so you can learn the Furoshiki wrap technique!
