Wrapping Paper - Non-Metallic

Wrapping paper is strong or decorative paper for wrapping parcels or presents.

Consider reuse before recycling, such as wadding for packaging or storing ornaments. Consider repurposing other items for wrapping, like maps, newspaper, blueprints, wallpaper samples, or fabric.
