Thanks for doing this series! My immediate family and my parents have been getting greener every Christmas and finding that it’s at least as much fun, if not more!

My partner and I made our own Christmas tree for our first Christmas together, and we just decorated it for the 12th time. See link behind my name.

Great post! Thank you for leaving a comment on my blog with the suggestion to use recycled wrapping paper. I will definitely do it and thanks for bringing that to my attention!

I grew up on the coast of Texas and all the trees are taken to the beach to help form sand dunes. Other than that, everything seems to wasteful. KV

Stumbled upon your blog. I’m an American living in Copenhagen. I have had a look around your blog. I can definitely relate to living in a small space. We also redid our kitchen this past year and are finally done with it! I look forward to reading more.

I always try to do something with the wrapping paper. I think it is always such a waste to just throw it away. I also made cute paper ornaments out of all my families Christmas cards and have used some in scrapbooking.

My grandmother used to reuse all the greeting cards she received, regardless of the occasion. She’d cut out images, embellish with a little glitter and add a bit of paper doily and maybe some lick-em stickers and create a whole new card on construction paper. In fact, I honestly don’t recall ever getting a store-bought card from her, yet she never forgot a birthday. :-)
