Recycling Christmas Cards and Wrapping Paper

This Christmas, try to buy cards and wrapping paper that can be recycled easily. This includes brown wrapping and coloured paper wrapping.

 
 

 

Remember the scrunch test - if it scrunches, it can be recycled. If it doesn't, it can't. 

Also, anything with glitter, foil, bows or plastic embellishments can’t be recycled.

Or better still, why not use reusable gift bags and keep passing them around friends and family?
