Christmas Day is all about time with family, good food and, of course, presents neatly wrapped under the Christmas tree.
But it’s not long before those neatly wrapped gifts become a mess of discarded ribbons and wrapping paper strewn across the loungeroom floor.
Which is perhaps why more and more people are turning to Furoshiki – the Japanese art of wrapping presents in fabric.
It’s good for the environment (tick!) but also creates a look that is Instagram-approved and totally Pinterest-worthy.
Tracey Bailey, the founder of eco-store Biome, wraps all her gifts this way and tells Mamamia there are so many lovely benefits to furoshiki.

It’s a nice idea, and it looks pretty, but I’m not sure how practical it is. It might work if you gave pressies in nice fabric bags, at least they have more of a purpose than a random pile of fabric. Might be a nice option if you have a quilter in the family, though!
