Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. These are three www.promdresses2016.us.com words that we have all heard countless times in our lives. For some, these are words to live by. For others, they are a modest reminder to be conscious of our waste production. Even with a cleaner and greener world underway, half of the things we throw away could be recycled or transformed into a new product. Chief among these dumping ground offenders are gift ribbons and bows.
Unfortunately, bows and gift wrap are generally not accepted for recycling due to their material makeup. California's Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery states that if every family reused just two feet of their holiday ribbon, the amount saved could tie a 38,000 mile-long bow around the entire planet! Furthermore, EcoPlanet, a website dedicated to sharing facts and statistics on how to create a more sustainable planet, states that, "It is estimated that if every American family wrapped just three New Prom Gowns presents in reused materials, it would save enough paper to cover 45,000 football fields." Not only is this a concern during the holidays, but also consider the many other gift giving occasions such as birthdays, showers, graduations, retirements, and more!
The usual advice to combat this waste is to wrap gifts in newspaper or use a reusable gift bag. While these ideas certainly address the problem, they diminish the whimsy and festivity of gifting. Deanna Russo, the creator of Bow K?, has invented a way to repurpose gift ribbons, bows, silk flowers and other decorative accents so that you can be creative and guilt free with gift trimmings, knowing that they can to be reused.
Russo was inspired to create this patented ribbon craft out of her own frustration with a decades-old tradition. During her friend's bridal shower, Russo found herself using a paper plate and scissors to create a Vintage Prom Dresses bouquet of gift bows for the bride to carry during her wedding rehearsal. The flimsy paper plate ripped as the ribbon ends were threaded through and it bent under the weight of the bows. Thus, Russo's plan to escape the plate was born.
