I make receiving blankets to wrap baby gifts in. They get two gifts --- the blanket and the gift! For other gifts I make a tote bag or laundry bag to give them in.

I meant to include this in my reply.

I just ordered one of the reusable wrapping cloths from the WrapAgain Store. I am going to see how they are made and see if I can't make some for Christmas. At one time I was wrapping boxes and lids separately with really nice paper so that they could be used again...

Since we're into paper crafts too, we plan on doing something with the papers and using grocery sacks and jazz them up!

You can go to travel agencies and get travelogues that make great giftwrapping, too! You can probably order them online for free...
