There’s no reason why you can’t be both a stylish gift-wrapper and environmentally friendly. Fish Lips Paper Designs proves this point through their many unique, modern gift wrap designs…all printed on 100% post-consumer recycled paper using soy based inks.

Use and re-use the gift wrap for book covers, placemats, wall art, draw liners, and pretty much anything else that you can think of! $4.00 per sheet at Fish Lips.

These greeting cards by photographer Allison Trentelman of Mandala Art and Photography perfectly capture the beauty of the winter. And I really, really must think of this beauty on days like today, where it’s absolutely frigid outside and I don’t want to leave the comfort of my warm home. Allison also sells photographic art prints, though these greeting cards are beautiful enough to frame. $16.00 for a set of four.
