Full disclosure: I bought everything full price,but some of the links i provide are affiliate links, so I get a small commission if you buy anything through my links at no addtional cost to you.
A slight departure from the usual content since it’s… Christmas time!
I love Christmas, but along with good things come some challenges. One of these challenges is giving gifts.
If only we knew exactly what to give someone and still be able to surprise them.
Here are some of my favourite gift ideas that I think are more sustainable.
Give someone a plant! You can now shop online for plants and have them sent right to someone’s door. Here in Canada, we have a great company that ships tropical plants across the country.
These are a new great find for me! Laundry detergent that is sold in recyclable paper packaging. The laundry detergent is a sheet that dissolves when it comes in contact with water. I love them! You can set someone up with a subscription.
Scented candles are a nice treat. I love these ones from Hollow Tree. These candles are made with coconut wax which is more sustainable and clean-burning. The candles are scented with essential oils that will bring the feeling of being in the forest to you.
If candles aren’t the thing. How about scenting the home with essential oils in a beautiful diffuser like this one. I have a few of these. They not only work great but they look amazing also.
Essential oils are also nice to give to someone that you know already uses a diffuser. You can give them as singles, in sets or alone with a diffuser.
If you know someone that is into reading or has a hobby or passion project then books might be a good idea. I know in this age of finding everything online, I really am hard-pressed to buy a book anymore. I really think about it - a lot more than I used to that’s for sure.
Luxurious organic towels would be something I’d love to receive. This a set that I’m sure would be very appreciated.
I bought myself this down alternative duvet insert a while back and I love it. If you know someone really well and you know this is something they would appreciate then this would be a great gift!
Some links may be affiliate links. Affiliate links mean that I get a small percentage if you buy something through them but at no extra cost you.
I have a video, My Sustainable Christmas Gifts 2021 which includes a few more gifts that may spark more ideas for you!
