Eco Friendly Gifts to Delight Everyone on Your List
Find eco friendly gifts for everyone on your list, including sustainable products for the kitchen and home, clean beauty and fashion gifts, eco-friendly stocking stuffers, green gifts for kids, and more.
Holiday shopping is a mixed bag for me. On one hand, I love the feeling of finding just the right gift. Something that will make their eyes light up and put a genuine smile on their face. Something magical that will bring joy to their lives. Something special that they would not have bought for themselves.
On the flip side, there’s that pressure. I have to find something for the teachers, the brother, the in-laws (insert your own hard-to-shop-for person here). That pressure takes the fun out of shopping and turns it into a chore.
Plus I’m not a fan of buying stuff just to buy stuff. Because that’s wasteful and I don’t want to add to the clutter. I want to give gifts that will be used till they’re used up, and enjoyed every step of the way.
The best gifts are meaningful, helpful, healthy and a little bit indulgent. I go for gifts that are good for my people and for the planet. No dust-gathering tchotchkes. Only delightfully useful, eco-friendly gifts sprinkled with a little bit of fairy dust for good measure.

Eco Friendly Gifts for Everyone
As I put together this gift guide, I looked back on favorite products I’ve used over the years. Tools that have been life-savers in the kitchen. Beauty products that have made me feel special even on those very non-special days. Gifts for kids that stimulate the senses and encourage creativity. Essentials for a healthy home environment. Even some cool eco gifts for the adventurous dude in your life.
Most things I’m sharing are items I have tried or gifted myself (or a similar substitute). Plus a couple of things I just think are too cool to pass up. They’re all high-quality, non-toxic, eco-friendly and sustainably produced by ethical, socially conscious companies that I stand behind.
Hope this non-toxic gift guide helps you find those perfect unique, eco-friendly gifts for someone on your list (fairy dust not provided)!
