Every year, huge amounts of Christmas wrapping paper ends up in landfill, as it is often made with a mix of materials or has shiny and metallic patterns printed on it. This festive season, lots of households will be opting for more eco-friendly alternatives, like fabric sheets, brown paper and reusable gift bags.
One mum has divided opinions online after sharing her idea to use aluminium tin foil this year instead of traditional wrapping paper, in a bid to be more eco-friendly. She hoped that it would appeal to her three-year-old child more and have less of an impact on the environment.
