Homemade gifts!
Scaling back what we will buy. Try to make some gifts instead of buying everything.
This is awesome and amazing! I love it!
We celebrate over 13 days, and I am prone to doing homemade gifts a lot. This year we will be looking at reusable wrapping “paper” (aka made from fabric that can be reused over and over.
I am making the Holidays more sustainable by buying only locally made in USA gifts and encouraging others to do the same through my “Made in America Holiday Challenge!”
Hey All,
We are so happy that many of you decided to make homemade gifts. We host workshops (in Toronto) on how to make your own cosmetics, candles, soaps and so on – these obviously work great as gifts as well! Plus if you put extra effort into it your gift will be cherished even more.
For you Sarah, on our site we have a “Shop by Ethic” part where you can select items Made in US or Made in Canada… hopefully that helps with your challenge!
