Gift bags saved, paper from bouquet rolled and saved, wrapping paper with sticky tape carefully removed and rolled inside bouquet paper - all to be ironed next time I have the iron out - envelopes saved for labels to be stuck over any writing, cards will be cut down for gift tags and threaded with satiny hanging loops cut from jumpers, trousers etc (thank you to clothes retailers who don't print your name on them
), some cards can be cut down to make mini cards, very nice but unwanted non-perishables to be recycled next year, not forgetting to add a post-it with who they were from! Perishables can be donated for raffle prizes. It's a start
