Hey loves! Good Morning!
Everyone loves giving gifts over the holiday season, we frantically wrap, box and unbox what we think would be the “perfect” gift for our loved ones. When really, the best gifts we can give one another. have the potential to save our planet from ecological doom, on that note, here are some of my favorite environmentally friendly products and brands.
1. Handmade Soap
The Little Flower Soap Co. @thelittleflowersoapco
These handmade and organic beauts smell AMAZING! I just purchased their cute sampler pack myself, I think it is the coolest thing that they use the soap ends (excess) from each batch they make. and sell them as samplers giving you 8-10 varied little soaps.
2. Reusable Coffee Mug.
This is a fail-proof gift in my eyes. especially for those workaholics in your life. my favorite materials for these are glass and bamboo because they both keep a constant temperature longer than plastics, and are also 100 percent recyclable. my favorite is made by Weetall and can be bought on Amazon.
3. Plants, on plants.
Plants are NEVER a bad idea! not only are they beautiful and promote positive energy, but they can be a source of food! get creative when potting, and reuse what you have one hand, coffee cans, glass jars. etc.
4. Bamboo Towel sets
Bath towels make great his and her gifts, for newlyweds, parents or spouses. These lovely bamboo ones will certainly offer a luxurious feel whilst also being biodegradable and antibacterial! Eartheasy.com carries my favorite!
5. Toys for any age!
As a civil and environmental engineering student, I LOVE building things! and have stumbled across a few wonderful DIY kits pertaining to renewable energies, and structural engineering! alas here are a few of my favorites! (links attached)
Wind-Powered Renewable energy kit

I hope these ideas have inspired you to think outside of the box this year! happy holidays love! may they be merry and bright!
