Recycled gift wrap has sure come a long way! Here’s another super stylish example: the eco-friendly Reminisce Recycled Wrap collection, available at RadiantIdeas.net. The Chilly Dogs design (below, upper left) is just way too cute!

Going green never looked so good! These super stylish, eco-friendly designs by Whimsy Press are certified by the Forest Stewardship Council and printed on 100% recycled paper with soy-based inks.

The Proud Peacock design (pictured at top) is so super cute… I think we’re going to have to design an entire party theme around it…what do you think? Of course the other designs are pretty fabulous as well…

Pictured above: D-vine Inspiration. Pictured below: Madame Butterfly and Mod Floral. Which one is your favorite?

Currently loving these gorgeous gift wrap collections by Heidi. Each collection comes with 2 sheets of gift wrap, matching notecards (set of eight) and ribbon for a fully coordinating gift wrap ensemble!

Great for creating packages that are almost too pretty to open, or for use as inspiration/decor for your next party theme! (Use the different pieces to embellish vases, create paper table runners and napkin rings, wrap party favors, etc. The “Buttons” pattern pictured below would be great for a modern baby shower!)

Paper Source, an ultra-stylish handmade paper company, is pursuing a commitment to going green and has a wonderful selection of recycled stationery, invitations, and gift wrap available on their website. A few favorites pictured above: Curry Party , and Spring Leaf imprintable invitations featuring a striking dark chocolate, white, and yellow color palette, adorable Goldfish gift wrap roll, and Red Flowers with Chocolate Dots gift wrap.

One of my favorite gift wrap designers – Whimsy Press – is having a cute "Summer is Funner" special right now that’s worth checking out! Save $10 when you order their "Best Friends" or "Cutest Little Things " gift wrap collections. Both sets are absolutely adorable!

Whimsy Press has a great gift wrap design called DIY Design that features pre-printed doodles on one side and room for DIY doodles on the other. This design has always reminded me of the doodle-adorned notepads and kraft-paper-covered text books from high school and college years past, and it feels like a great element to inspire a girlie graduation party theme!

On the DIY side of the wrap, you can fill in the bubbles with custom notes & doodles like little graduations hats, phrases like "Congrats!" or "2008", your guest of honor’s name, and even special messages to the Grad. Use the gift wrap to cover text books, wrap vases, create table runners, etc.

This same design also comes in double-sided, pre-cut placemats for easy table top decor…

Just add black and white plates and table linens, a simple floral arrangement, wooden numbers that read "2008", and a few pictures of your Grad displayed in modern black and white frames. Complete the party theme with pink, black, and green paper lanterns and more pictures and wooden block letters and numbers that read "CONGRATS" and "2008" elsewhere in the party.

Throwing a bridal shower? Why not use one of these patterns as the inspiration for your party decor? Create table runners from the gift wrap then find coordinating partyware and linens. For your centerpieces, fill one or more table vases with tight bunches of flowers then wrap a 2-3″ strip of the gift wrap around the center of each vase to tie everything together. For extra embellishment, tie another band of coordinating ribbon around the paper band – and use the same ribbon for your napkin rings.

And don’t forget to kick the whole thing off with a coordinating imprintable invitation!…
