Make a gift box from old greetings cards

gift%20box.jpg

Over on Hippyshopper I've been talking about the environmental cost of Christmas cards and how many cool recycled cards are available nowadays. But What about when the cards have been taken down?

This neat and professional-looking greetings-card gift box is a great idea for using up old cards, and will save you from having to throw all those carefully chosen cards in the recycle bin. You could even use last year's cards to wrap this year's presents, assuming like most crafty people I know you can't bear to throw a good card away. Instructions are available on Craftypod.

    Curious why you don't want people to pin this idea. It would bring you more followers etc. It's been around before so it's not a "new" idea just a nice way for others to try it out.

  • This is a great idea!
