If you love crafting, the day after Christmas gives you ample opportunity to upcycle items used in Christmas celebrations and give them a whole new purpose. Here are some examples: UPCYCLING AND POST- CHRISTMAS CRAFTS 1. Repurpose Gift Cards as Gift Tags. You will need the following supplies: greeting cards, scissors, a hole punch, and string or ribbon. 2. Create a wine (or sparkling cider) bottle gift bag. You will need an 11/4-inch hole punch, a piece of cardstock, and a greeting card. • Go through the greeting cards you used and cut out the parts of the cards you intend to use as gift tags. • Punch a hole in the top of the new gift tag, loop a piece of string or ribbon through, and tie in a knot at the end. 3. Make Recycled Gift Bag Confetti. Do you love to fill your gift bags with confetti for a fun presentation? You can upcycle gift cards by shredding them to get the same look while also recycling. • Fold the cardstock in half. • Use the hole punch to make an opening so that the neck of the wine bottle can slip through. • Choose a decorative greeting card and glue it to the section of cardstock that will lie flush along the front of the wine bottle.
