Flour sack wraps

Gifts don't always need to be wrapped in paper. These loaves of cranberry-orange bread were wrapped in flour-sack towels and tied up with yarn before being given as Christmas gifts.

A few posts back I gave some ideas for greener gift wrapping options.

I just wanted to share this photo of 14 loaves of cranberry-orange bread my husband made for his co-workers over the last few days. We wrapped them in flour-sack towels and tied them up with red yarn. Red and white-striped bakery string would have been nice, too, but I couldn’t find any.

Anyhow, just a suggestion for wrapping “paper” that can be used again and again.
