wow your friends

Franke James

This is the fifth of five green tips where we look at ways to transform "useless" junk mail into stylish and free gift wrap.

So if you've been following our Green Delights of Junk Mail Gift Wrap series you've learned to spot the holiday symbols. You're on the lookout for visually striking images. You've unleashed your inner wrap artist and you're going wild with ribbons. Most important, you've discovered that junk mail offers gift wrap for all occasions-totally free! Now what?

You're ready to wow your friends (and Planet Green, too!) by sending us digital photos of your most fabulous (or just plain fun) junk-mail gift-wrap package. We'll feature a selection of the best in a future post. (And if it looks so good we can hardly believe it's made from junk mail, please tell us what advertisement or flyer it came from.)We'd love to hear your friend's and family's reactions to your stylish junk mail gift wrap.

Were they surprised as much by the thoughtful and clever wrapping as the gift itself?

Did you prompt a conversation about living green?

Did you inspire anyone else to be a little greener? Let us know!

Review our five tips and then send us a digital photo of your artistry by uploading it to Flickr and tagging it planetgreenwrapping.

Happy wrapping from all of us at Planet Green, and congratulations to everyone who is helping to make the world a little greener.
