Free EntryecoChici– reusable cloth gift wrap is inspired by furoshiki, the Japanese art of creatively wrapping gifts in cloth. It’s eco friendly and ethically produced.
Instead of buying expensive, wrapping paper which is used only once, invest in an ecoChici kit made up of a purpose-designed wrap cloth and exclusive ribbon clips. Just fold and secure as demonstrated on the diagram and video, and you’ve got a present that not only looks like art work, it will never end up as crumpled waste clogging landfill. The unbleached cotton wraps are hand screened in Melbourne, with sewing and packing carried out by Bendigo-based Radius, who provide meaningful work opportunities for people with disabilities.Beyond its moral merits, ecoChici is sophisticated – beautiful to touch and hold, with timeless designs
