amy butler design now offering green gift wrap + tableware.

amy butler, one of my favorite fabric designers, now offers 100% post-consumer waste gift wrap and paper tableware. both use soy-based inks. while i am a proponent of multi-use rather than single-use items, i'm happy to see that if you must picnic, you can feel at least partly green. and if your gift recipient has ocd like me, she can save the wrap and make it into something beautiful, or at least pin it up on her inspiration wall. the only downside is that the wrap comes in a set with wrap, bags and tissue paper. i would be more inclined to purchase just what i need.

• gift wrap set includes three paper rolls, four gift bags, two gift card cases and tissue, $34.25.
• tableware set includes eight dinner plates, eight salad plates, 20 lunch and 20 beverage napkins, $19.
