For Mother’s Day, we got my mother a book and some pictures of the grandbabies. The present was easy, finding good wrapping was not. Mainly because I waited until the very last minute to think about it. Had I thought about it beforehand, I could have put it in a recyclable canvas bag or used the funnies. Alas, I didn’t. She didn’t get a creatively wrapped present.
But she would have if I had known about the BOBO wrap. These beautiful, eco-friendly scarves are based on the ancient Korean tradition called bojagi.
Instead of using wrapping paper, gift bags or plastic bags, you use the BOBO wrap to contain your stuff. Not only does it cut down on waste, but it’s also very pretty. My favorite color is Orange Pulp.
Don’t worry if it looks difficult to use, there’s a book called “The Wrapping Scarf Revolution” that gives detailed instructions on how to use your wrap.
And we have a copy of the book to give away! All you have to do is leave a comment telling us which BOBO Wrap you like the best and how you would use it.
We will have a drawing on Friday, June 25th.
I like the apple green crinkle…I think it’s the texture, the crinkly look that most appeals to me. And one thing I would do with the Bobo is wrap my paper back books before I put them in my backpack with my computer so they don’t get all bent up.
Ahh this is perfect! I am always cringing when I but the dreaded “gift bag” … knowing it will end up in the trash. This looks cool and won;t end up in the trash, a win win win.
I LOVE the Amethyst velvet polka dot! http://www.bobowrap.com/amethystgroup.html so pretty! The black and white zebra with red backing is pretty hot too! http://www.bobowrap.com/9021801.html
I like the Emerald Solid. Great idea as the gift recipients can “pay it forward” and recycle at the same time.
I am a red person so ofcourse my vote is for the red. I WILL use these. What a great idea.
I like the apple green crinkle and I would use it to hold books, I really would!
I like the red metallic! It’s great, because it’s like getting two gifts in one!!

I like the Turquoise Solid the best. I would use it for my mom’s b-day present.
I like the Lux Leopard Acid Yellow. It would make a great gift for my wife.
I like Regal Ivy.
