4 Tips for Eco-Conscious Gift Giving

• Re-use wrapping
  I always save bows and bags in good condition (and sometimes even wrapping paper or tissue paper). There is so much waste in the world already, every little bit helps!
• Share Experiences
  Everyone has so much STUFF these days. How about sharing in an experience together instead? I love taking friends out for tea or a cocktail, or my parents to the theater or a concert as a gift. My husband and I always do something together like a nice dinner or take a family trip!
• DIY FTW
  Home made gifts are always a big hit and hopefully it’s something you know they will enjoy or use so you are just not adding to the landfill. Many years I have made bath salts, or brownies and truffles.
• Sometimes it’s just the thought that counts
  Speaking of just adding to the landfill, another great idea is not exchanging gifts at all! A donation in their honor is a triple-win: you feel good giving a gift, the recipient knows you thought of them, and the charity gets your support to help make a difference!
