Eco-Wrapping Ideas for Christmas with Freddie’s Flowers

This Christmas, get creative with what you already have to make beautifully wrapped presents – all from the materials in your Freddie’s Flowers box! It’s the perfect way to reuse and add a unique, eco-friendly touch to your gifting and décor. Here’s how you can use all the bits from your delivery to wrap stunning, sustainably-sourced gifts.

Wrap Gifts with Reused Paper

Start with the brown paper lining that comes with each Freddie’s Flowers box, or the beautiful seasonal papers accompanying our special Christmas arrangements. These make a charming, rustic wrap for gifts of all shapes and sizes, adding a cosy, handmade feel. You can also add your own artistic touches with stamps, doodles, or eco-friendly paint for a pop of colour, turning simple brown paper into festive masterpieces.

Craft Your Own Gift Tags

Those sturdy cardboard delivery boxes don’t have to go to waste (if you don’t fancy returning them)! Cut them into small rectangles or fun shapes like stars or trees, and you’ve got gift tags. You can leave them plain for a minimalistic look, or decorate with paint, pens, or even small stickers. Punch a hole in each tag, then use the string from your delivery to tie it onto a wrapped gift – they’re personalised, practical, and a delight to make.

Use String for the Finishing Touch

Freddie’s Flowers boxes include beautiful, natural twine – ideal for securing your wrapped gifts. Tie in a simple bow, or loop the twine a few times for an extra touch of charm.

Add Dried Flowers for a Festive Flourish

Dried stems, like eucalyptus or limonium, make for beautiful finishing touches. Tuck a sprig or two beneath the bow to add colour and fragrance to your presents. Not only does this give each gift a festive look, but it also gives new life to the dried flowers from your previous arrangements.

Reuse for Table Settings

The string and dried flowers also double beautifully as table décor. Wrap twine around your cutlery or napkins and tuck in a small dried flower stem – perfect for the Christmas table! It’s an easy way to bring a lovely natural look to your Yuletide table, keeping everything festive and eco-friendly.
