I think it was mainly due to my grandparents living through two world wars the the depression when everything was scarce and worth saving.<br /><br />My grandmother saved every little scrap of wrapping paper, and heaven forbid you'd throw a bow in the garbage. She also recycled greeting cards by putting the nicest ones in scrapbooks and saving others for craft projects with her grandchildren.<br /><br />For people with small children, there is no need to wrap gifts from Santa. Santa doesn't have time to wrap all those gifts, so he just puts the toys under the tree without wrapping them.Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09327909942793134315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2127852782723349426.post-6017043584386393882010-10-06T14:49:49.188-05:002010-10-06T14:49:49.188-05:00I totally agree with you!
