Pack of 3 Dragonfly Lokta Paper Gift Wrap Sheets with Tags

A pack of 3 sheets of sustainable Lokta paper gift wrap, decorated with a beautiful dragonfly design. Perfect for gifting all year round, each sheet comes with a matching gift tag. The thick, luxurious texture makes it easy to reuse, or save it for an extra special craft project. Our stunning gift wrap is handmade from Lokta, a shrub that grows in the foothills of the Himalayas. After being harvested, it is boiled, cleaned, and beaten with wooden mallets to produce a fibre pulp. It is then mixed with water and poured into a shallow frame made of bamboo poles and canvas, before it is dried in the sun. Finally, natural dyes and details are added to the paper by the skilled artisans, creating the beautiful, acid-free paper. Each sheet of gift wrap comes with a matching gift tag, also crafted from Lokta. Approximately 75 x 50 cm Due to the handmade nature of our products each one is unique, but loveliness comes as standard. Our colourful recycled notebooks and beautifully handmade gift wrap are sourced from Get Paper Industries (GPI), an incredible, socially aware cooperative in Nepal. The charity work they do in the local area has earnt them many awards, from their support of people affected by HIV and Aids, to establishing schools to support the education of underprivileged children. Milan, a founding member, is a man with an amazing passion for life, and he and his team are making a huge difference, as we’ve been fortunate enough to see with our own eyes. As our own small contribution to their work, Paper High sponsor 10 girls to attend one of their schools. By making a purchase, you are helping to continue the fantastic work of our producers.
