Gift wrapping can be beautiful in its simplicity. Here are some ideas for inspiration from the goddess of good things, Martha Stewart. Above, brown craft paper tied with string works nicely with a fresh sprig of greens tucked in and a red bordered sticker label for a tag. 
Recycling the drawings or doodles of your resident artist makes a cheerful and personal wrapping tied up with a bow.
A solid color paper or tissue looks elegant with a pretty bow and a little greenery attached.
Japanese style wrapping, furoshiki, with a piece of fabric or scarf self-tied as a carry-all is a thoughtful practice of the 3 Rs.
Natural materials as leaves and pods wrapped in rafia or grasses add an organic touch for your gifts.
Newspapers, maps, and strips of paper can be layered for an entirely recycled and creative wrapping.
