All hail Primark! Not only are they super cheap for those all important stocking fillers, they have also come up with a brilliant way to make gift wrapping a little more environmentally-friendly this year. This season Primark’s shopping bags double up as wrapping paper.
The
classic 100% recycled brown bags have been given a Christmassy makeover. They now feature a red striped design, which reminds us of festive candy
canes.
Shoppers can simply tear the striped bags to remove the handles and
bottom and then use it as wrapping paper. What’s more, the store’s logo
sits on the bottom, so the person receiving the gift will have no idea
the paper has been up-cycled.
Why not add some ribbon and bows or a sprig of holly or pine cones to really make the gift personal.
Once the bags have served their second purpose they can be popped in the recycling bin, unlike lots of other wrapping papers which often contain plastic.
This handy hack’s also a great way to save money on gift wrap, something lots of us are looking to do this year.
Did you know some Primark stores also have extended opening hours, find out which ones here.
