The Only Sustainable Gift Guide You Need

Come one, come all to the only gift guide you need! It’s no secret I’m into about sustainability, BUT I’m also really into GIFT GUIDES! I LOVE watching people put together curated lists of items they think other people will love as well; however, I was getting really tired of seeing Amazon gift guides being thrown about that don’t have any meaningful gifts and feature brands that are known to be unsustainable and unethical. 

Now, I pride myself on giving gifts. So you will never be getting something random that you will never appreciate or benefit from from me. So with that being said, I wanted to share some of my favorite guides that I have created in hopes that they will help you in your holiday shopping this season!

Heads up on the list: Instead of giving you a huge, long list to hunt through we are going to narrow this down into “types” of people you may be shopping for this year, so click below to hyperlink you to the gift guide the person you’re shopping for would fit into. :)
