Eco Friendly Gift Giving

In honor of our month of giving, some “eco friendly” holiday gift giving ideas and tips!

• Buy an experience – Rather than buying a “thing”, buy a gift certificate to a favorite restaurant, tickets to a show or to some event they want to attend.
• Quality, not quantity – Higher quality items will last longer and be more appreciated.
• Buy secondhand – Used, secondhand, vintage, antique scores points for uniqueness.
• Make it Yourself – Create homemade products, such as jams or cookies, and package them in reusable friendly glass.
• Buy Sustainable Products – Seek out eco conscious manufacturers for healthier, less environmentally toxic gifts, made of natural materials such as wood, metal, rubber, paper, cotton, wool, and coated with non toxic colors.
• Give to Charity – Donate money, plant a tree, support their favorite church or charitable organization in their name.

Most importantly, you are “paying it forward” — Eco-conscious gift giving is also an opportunity for you to encourage others to be mindful of their own world and health too!

Herein, we present our first annual Norwex Gift Giving Guide!
