Today i was thinking about the waste from Christmas gift wrapping, its my first christmas trying to live a minimal waste lifestyle. FABRIC IS SUCH A GOOD IDEA. Thanks Karissa
Love your peeling face and the fabric wrapping! I saw it at lush but didn't put two and two together like you did so now I know how to finish wrapping the rest of the presents I have ❤ thanks girl!
I'm obsessed with the fabric wrap idea. I was wrapping my gifts this weekend and realized how much waste paper makes (no matter how cute it can be), what a great idea!
I'm glad you got some sun today! It is -12 degrees Celsius where I am. Brrr! On top of that I have the worst sinus cold :( Then I remembered your Sick Day Makeup routine video. Day saved! :) I think the idea of using fabric to wrap gifts is a wonderful idea.
What a great idea with the fabric wrapping system.. seriously, I've never heard of doing that. So would you just collect the fabric back after they've opened the gift, and then reuse it the following year? Such a cool idea, and less wasteful which is a plus! 🎁
Wrapping with fabric is such an awesome idea! A few years ago my family and I bought a load of cute boxes and shredded tissue paper from Paperchase (they sell some dope stationary and gifting stuff- they are also selling taco and burrito tree decorations this year!!) and now we mainly use those for 'wrapping' presents. I bought a few hampers too so I use those if I'm giving lots of little things. The paper just felt super wasteful :( so neat that everyone is finding ways to recycle but still have a pretty wrap for their gifts.
Glens laugh at 11:07.... all my gifts are wrapped this year, but I'm definitely going to look into the whole fabric thing for next year! Such a neat idea.
I love the idea of the fabric wrap! How clever! Also kudos to you for going out with a peel face how do you not pick at it? I'd be sitting around all day peeling my face off lol
I feel you so much with your face/skin, I'm going through the same process now and I wasn't brave enough to walk outside looking like that. Props to you👏🏼 loving your vlogs 💕
karissa and glen, been following you all for a long time...LOVE what you do and have been inspired to put on make up because of you Karissa..lol Thanks for making the channel and being dedicated to your followers!
deconstructing paper whole foods grocery bags and using the blank side for wrapping paper is another eco-friendly wrapping option :) love the cloth idea!
Karissa, You can use flexible tree bark, such as birch, to wrap rustic looking presents also. What a rad idea to wrap presents in cloth though! Save as much as possible. Fun video. Jess
Hey Karissa! My mum has been wrapping our gifts in fabric for years: you can wrap them normally and just use a little dot from a glue-gun wherever you would normally tape. Works really well and is really easy. :)
i love that youre fabric wrapping the gifts! i love you even more if thats even possible! will definitely do that next time i wanna do some wrapping. i usually just produce the unwrapped gift from my bag so i dont have to waste paper. lol.
Haha that works too! My mom loves re using pretty paper bags because they don't get wrinkled and you just use the same ones every year! Works so well :) xx
hey guys! love ur videos and the fabric wrap idea! I usually wrap presents in reusable tin cans (on x mass time theres always a large selection of sizes) or I place them on pretty woven boxes. Happy Holidays!
Hi Karissa love your channel! Have you looked up furoshiki? It Japanese fabric wrapping and they do some pretty awesome stuff with it. I started using scarfs a couple of years ago.
I really enjoyed this. I friend of mine is wrapping all her gifts in fabric. this year for my birthday I received a scented soy candle and a pair of earrings wrapped in black lace. It was so thoughtful. This year I sewed some Christmassy santa sacks, 1 for each person with their gift. :)
Have you ever tried rosehip seed oil?? It really helps with acne healing/acne scars! Loving the fabric gift wrapping though! Definitely going to be trying that out.
The idea of wrapping presents in fabric is so cool! Never thought of that and I already got some wrapping paper for this years christmas :/ But I'll try it at the next opportunity! 💗
HI Karissa your vlogmas is great as always, I've recently tried a new stuff for my face that really helped with my skin which is a konjac sponge, it's a very gentle tool that allows you to exfoliate your face very gently so you can have an everyday use and it's 15 bucks, it's organic and it changed my life, kisses from France 💖☃🎄
I love the idea of wrapping with fabric. My boyfriend did that last year for my gifts because he waited until last minute and didn't think to buy wrapping paper😂 It turns out super cute!
How do you find the confidence to go out with peely skin/acne etc? I have pretty moderate almost severe acne in some places and can't find the confidence to go out without makeup! I really admire that about you. Obviously it's nothing to be ashamed of, I just personally really struggle with it and just wish I had the confidence to just go without.
Georgia Olsen I think I just came to the conclusion that what I look like isn't going to determine what I do in my day. No other species gives a shit what they look like and why do we? Acne is a part of many people's lives and I know I for one am not giving it any more control over my day to day life than it already has 😝💕
Can you do a video about your skin overhaul treatments you are doing?! super interested in doing something like that for myself - Ive been using the Dr Dennis Gross alpha beta peel treatments kits from sephora and they are pretty good.
Glen is so white now and that hair omg 😂 "Sun is not my friend. Inside safer!" Literally could only think of Benchwarmers when you walked out into the sun Glen 😂 Karissa your skin seems to be doing so much better! So what if it's a little flakey 😬 My nan does the reusable thing as well, but she reuses wrapping paper. . I still get presents in wrapping paper from when I was like six! ❤❤❤
You make me want to clean my house & do my makeup & actually leave my house !!!!! ....... I suffer severe depression & when I am in a bad low, I will go days without getting out of bed or leaving the house & because of that I lose friends, my home becomes a shit sty & life basically SUCKS !!!!! ....... BUT, I watch your blogs & I feel like getting up & cleaning the house & getting dressed & being around other humans !!!!! ....... So THANK YOU !!!!! xx
Ok so this fabric gift wrapping idea is GOLD!!!!! So my sisters' mother in law is a quilter and always has a ton of left over material from her projects, right!? Well guess who is going to utilize all those rid bits?? 🙌🙌🙌 oh ya!!! Me. The answer is me!
Karissa can you expand on these dispensaries? Cannabis is illegal in Canada so I am surprised and interested, wondering how they get away with having those everywhere?
DianaBB cannabis is not illegal in Canada. It is currently decriminalized and they are likely making it legal, they're just sorting out specifics, for example what the age limit will be
Reusable fabric wrapping is such a lovely idea! I saw in Lush they use scarves and other pieces of fabric. The gift that keeps on giving !
Glen, that hair picture is truly a gift
Wrapping the gifts in fabric is seriously genius!! It looks so cute!! 💖🎁
You know it's the most wonderful time of the year when you post so much vlogs! Thank you guys for the effort!! 😊
Today i was thinking about the waste from Christmas gift wrapping, its my first christmas trying to live a minimal waste lifestyle. FABRIC IS SUCH A GOOD IDEA. Thanks Karissa
Yasmin Jade I was thinking the same thing! Awesome idea!
yes! definietly doing it this way this year. makes me happy to see others are thinking more consciously too!
That eco wrapping is a great idea! I got recycled paper this year but I love that you can keep reusing the same fabric year after year!
Wrapping presents with fabric is such a good idea! I'll definitely have to try that next year.
Love your peeling face and the fabric wrapping! I saw it at lush but didn't put two and two together like you did so now I know how to finish wrapping the rest of the presents I have ❤ thanks girl!
I'm obsessed with the fabric wrap idea. I was wrapping my gifts this weekend and realized how much waste paper makes (no matter how cute it can be), what a great idea!
It's awesome that you walk outside with no makeup!!
i also like decorative boxes...they come with prints already and i reuse them year after year, they fold down flat so they're easy to store.

Agree! I'm sure you could either collect it back or let them keep it and suggest they use it for wrapping the following year.
Yes!! I have a Christmas scarf from lush I got a couple years ago, and I love it! Such a cute idea to wrap your presents like that!!
Absolutely LOVE that you wrapped gifts in fabric, love to see eco-friendly things catching on!
Karissa, I love that you use fabric to wrap your gifts. I always use old newspapers. But fabric is definitely more pretty.

hey girl. hope everything is good with all the snow and craziness that went down on the SkyTrain
I love the wrapping concept with fabric! I will definitely be doing that next year! It is such a unique idea I love it! P.S. love your channels!
One way to step up your fabric-wrapping game might be organic fabrics/natural dyes/responsibly produced!
One year my mom made fabric bags with Christmas material. We reuse them every year and just tie them closed with a nice ribbon.
i always get so excited when you post a new vlog! love them :)
such a great idea for present wrapping!!! i will be borrowing that idea 💕
deconstructing paper whole foods grocery bags and using the blank side for wrapping paper is another eco-friendly wrapping option :) love the cloth idea!

Alyssa C. Of course :) everyone I buy for is with me on Christmas morning anyways ☺️✨

I love the gifts wrapped in fabric! How beautiful- great idea. :D

Hi Karissa!! Hope you are feeling better from that pain. I was wondering if you mostly vlog with your Osmo camera 🤔 Thanks for your help :)))
Ratkie hey! Nope we mostly use our G7x💗
I really really loved the idea!! its ecofriendly and actually cute❤🎁🎁🎁
it looks like your skin is looking better! except the flaking process part, which kinda made eating oatmeal while watching this a little difficult :P
Sarah Types LOL💕
Your slippers are adorable!! Where are they from?

We have the same I'm A Dog Lover mug! It's a pretty shweet mug, I gotta admit. 👌
fabric is a brilliant idea!
