Newspaper
The easiest and cheapest alternative to fancy gift wraps are old broadsheets that are already up for the disposal or the junk yard. Select pages of entertainment, the sunday comics or any bright-colored page.

Scrap Fabric
If you're a craft and DIY kinda girl, chances are you might have pieces of scrap fabric just laying around in your home. Another great thing about fabric is that it's reusable and great for wrapping unconventionally shaped presents.

Maps
Look for outdated maps in your home or head to the nearest tourist center and get a few maps for free. Maps are perfect for your travel junkie families and friends. They're also colorful, unique and printed on sturdy paper so they'll last a long time too.

Brown Paper Bag
Make mother nature smile by wrapping your gift with used brown paper grocery bags. They literally cost nothing and would be a good canvas especially if you're going for shabby chic gift decors.

For finishing touches you can tie the gifts with a simple twine or yarn, decorate it with fresh leaves or flowers et voila! Martha Stewart would be so proud (wink).
