I just wonder do we really need more stuff? How many ornaments really need to go on a tree?

Years ago I started making cloth bags to give my presents in. I know not everyone has the time or the inclination, but it seemed like a little thing I could do to make less waste and I like to make stuff. They get passed around in my family. They aren't as pretty, but really what's wrong with a paper bag that your groceries came in?

I guess I just wish everyone in the whole wide world could think of ways to use or reuse what they have. Less stuff in the landfill, less energy used and maybe less of a "I only want my fair share..." attitude.
