Use TapeSwell Rather than Wrapping Paper

Posted: 22 Dec 2009 09:39 PM PST

For sure there will be a lot of you who are busy now that Christmas is days away. And Christmas wrapping is expected to be rampant. But if you have done so and are meaning to buy gift wrapping paper, check out this alternative to gift wrapping paper called TapeSwell.

The TapeSwell concept re-uses boxes and other forms of packaging and re-designs them in a way that makes them look new together with a colorful printed packing tape. A great idea especially if you want to do your part in addressing the waste problems beseeching us today.

Recycled Bicycle Christmas Tree

Posted: 22 Dec 2009 09:37 PM PST

Here is another great idea for a Christmas Tree. We have seen the beer-bottle Christmas Tree now we have one made of 35 recycled bicycle wheels. The unique Xmas tree was commissioned by igloo developers and took a week to create and a few hours to install. The recycled wheel Christmas art installation also includes donated reflectors to add seasonal ambiance without consuming electricity.

This Recycled Bicycle Christmas Tree helps raise the awareness about Re-Cycle, a UK-based charity that recycles bicycles and sends them to Africa.
