Looking for an eco-friendly way to wrap your holiday presents? Consider wrapping them in maps! Grab that out-dated atlas or road map out of your car (you know you’ve got three in there) and start tearing out the pages. For larger presents you can just tape pages together, and for smaller presents, one page will due. It’s the perfect way to add a bit of crafty recycling to every present! (source)
