I recently wrote a post about Conscious Consumerism - you can read it HERE.

I stand by conscious shopping consumption, but I want to share other quality pieces that could last a long time and would be at least better than fast fashion for your holiday gift giving.


Eco-Friendly Notes (again):

  • My personal fave - gifting experiences or time can serve as alternatives to physical items.

  • Shop on Etsy.

  • Donate to a non-profit near and dear to your loved one’s heart in their name.

  • Know that your shipping method will impact how “green” you are - that two day shipping leaves a larger carbon footprint than the slower options because faster shipping requires more diesel-using trucks.

  • Request Bundled Shipping.

  • Try to carpool to the malls - isn’t it more fun to shop with friends anyway?

  • Environmental cost of packaging - keep that in mind.

  • Purchase Carbon Offsets.
