Furoshiki ECOlunchwrap by ECOlunchboxes Review and Giveaway! - CLOSED!

With "Back to School" time fast approaching, I must stress the money savings you will see by packing your child's and your own lunch everyday. ECOlunchboxes is a great place for all of your waste free lunch box needs. You will save so much money if you pack your lunch everyday and will save even more if you aren't buying ziplock baggies and use reusable bags or containers instead. The landfills will breathe a sigh of relief as well. I was given the Furoshiki ECOlunchwrap to review and I'm so excited to tell you about it!
The Furoshiki ECOlunchwrap is so stylish! You can twist and tie up your lunch and not have a plastic or paper bag to throw away. When I opened it up I thought it looked a bit complicated, but really it is so easy to use! I love the fact that it is machine washable! (You can read more about the Furoshiki ECOlunchwrap below.)

More About the Furoshiki ECOlunchwrap:

Chic and versatile, furoshiki is the original eco lunchbag from Japan. If you can tie two knots, you can transform our Furoshiki ECOlunchwrap into a stylish lunchbag!

The ancient Japanese tradition of knotting, folding and twisting, dating back to the 17th century, is newly chic as the dangers of plastic to our health and the environment have become widely known.

Double-sided and machine washable, our cotton furoshiki (pronounced f-ROHSH-kee) wrap is sewn from colorful fair trade textiles hand printed by artisans using wooden blocks and wax batik techniques perfected over generations. Whether you are packing food at home, picking up take-out or just need a versatile bag, our wraps make it easy to say goodbye to plastic bags, vinyl totes and other leachy food containers.

Plastic-free, BPA-free and waste-free, our furoshiki wraps are yummy and yuck-free for people of all ages plus our planet. Measure 24 x 24 inches. Machine wash/tumble dry. Made in India.
