As the seasons change, the autumn and winter holidays approach, bringing a slew of options for celebrating. Here are some tips for maintaining your eco-friendly integrity throughout the revelry!
When shopping for loved ones’ gifts or food for festive feasts, choose neither paper NOR plastic, and bring a reusable bag! Our Bridgette Recycled Newspaper Bag is super-durable, and has the additional perk of being chic as all get-out. Our newspaper bags have an additional leg up on the common “reusable shopping bag” because they’re made of salvaged materials, instead of polypropylene (a plastic polymer used to make lame bags like these).
Give gifts that are one-of-a-kind, not manufactured en masse in dimly-lit factories. These Jenny Krauss belts are an excellent example, as each embroidered wool belt is handmade by women’s cooperatives in rural Peru. Instead of working in a crammed warehouse, women are able to embroider in the comfort of their own homes, creating a unique work of art that will tickle the fancy of your favorite fashionista!
Buy Fair Trade products! What better reflects the spirit of giving than supporting a company that assists workers in developing countries? Our gorgeous Lily and Laura crocheted bracelets are not only fashionable, but their purchase directly benefits a team of Nepalese artisans, who are paid fair wages. This leads to an inspired, high-quality product– and a village elevated from poverty! Who could possibly say “bah humbug” to that?
