- Cut out fun shapes and hot glue to toothpicks to make festive cupcake toppers.
Herein, can cards with glitter be recycled?
Plain Christmas cards, yes, but not those with glitter. Many cards can be recycled in the main part of the recycling bin but any card which has glitter, glue, is over-printed in foil or a 3D image cannot be recycled. These will contaminate the waste stream and must be disposed of through your household bin.
And sadly it turns out that most present trimmings are not recyclable. Paper wrapping paper can be recycled in your yellow recycling bin. Metallic and shiny paper wrappings papers cannot be recycled as they contain foil or metallic pieces (but they can be reused for next year, or placed in your red rubbish bin).
