Reusing ribbon
You can iron ribbon of all kinds. Use a low or very low setting for most of them and wind them on cardboard tubes from toilet tissue. It will look like new. Some quality ribbon made of cloth can even be washed and then ironed.

Reuse gift wrap
If you try to save and reuse wrapping paper, but find that it looks used, try ironing it with a warm iron to remove wrinkles. Save wrapping paper, foil or wax paper tubes and roll the paper around it, secure with a rubber band or a bit of string or yarn to store. A few minutes invested can save several dollars worth of paper.
Keep this in mind through the holidays!
