Don’t forget the environment when you go to wrap your presents. Most wrapping paper in not recyclable because of all the dye. One option is to wrap your presents in the funny pages of the newspaper. If you procrastinate long enough, Garfield might even be doing something Christmasy on the paper. If you want to be green and classy, you could use our 100% cotton batik reusable gift bags.

I’m surprised you didn’t mention Halifax’s newest green place to shop: pur alternatives in Barrington Place Shops, specializing in non-toxic and sustainable skincare! If you haven’t checked it out yet, you definately should!

Another great recommendation for eco-friendly gifts is gourmet sets from Sustainable Sourcing https://secure.sustainablesourcing.com. They are filled with amazing Himalayan sea salt and organic peppercorns (they also have organic bath salts and massage stones) and they are the most environmentally-friendly and unique gifts I have found!

I like to use the finest ingredients to make cookies and English Toffee to send to my out of province Christmas folks. It’s always a hit to put them in a festive tin from the dollar store, too.

Excellent recommendations for green thinking with holiday gift giving.
I am a Shaklee distributor and am passionate about sharing their environmentally safe and concentrated cleaning products. Problem is, cleaning products are definitely not a “glamorous” or “oh my” gift. Any recommendations on how to jazz it up?
