While gifts for friends and family are a big part of the holiday season, with all the entertaining that goes on during the holidays, remembering a gift for the hostess is important too! A little token for the special woman that organized a wonderful party can really help a hostess feel appreciated. And if you’re looking for just the right hostess gift, Lavish & Lime has just what you’ve been looking for!
Lavish & Lime, the Vancouver-based eco-boutique that features only the best green products for families, makes regular appearances here on Mommy Kat and Kids and the reason for that is simple. The selection of trendy and useful eco-friendly products the store offers is second to none. This holiday season, Lavish & Lime has an idea for a hostess gift that’s both unique and useful.
Abeego Flat Wrap Covers are squares of cotton/hemp fabric infused with beeswax, tree resin and jojoba oil that are designed to replace plastic wrap in your kitchen. The covers come in four different sizes and are appropriate for everything from covering plates of leftovers to wrapping blocks of cheese. I received two packages of the wraps to test out and I was incredibly curious to see exactly how they worked.
The wraps felt quite stiff when I took them out of the package. The instructions informed me that I should rub the covers between my hands for a few seconds to warm them and make them more flexible and then press them around whatever object I wanted to seal for storage. I used the smallest wrap on an open block of cheese in the fridge and then checked it shortly thereafter.
The neat thing about these wraps is that they harden in the fridge to hold their shape, so in addition to being a non-toxic and eco-friendly replacement for plastic wrap, they actually work better at sealing up food. I often have problems with plastic wrap coming loose after I wrap food but since the Abeego Flat Wrap Covers harden in place, they stay exactly where I want them. And with care, they can be reused for up to one year!
