By Linda Ruiz


When looking for sustainable gifts, there are a number of options. Creative individuals can often make gifts for tree huggers out of recycled materials. Others, set up shop and offer creations for sale. Some import/export stores also offer items made from recycled wood and other items which could be considered sustainable.

Sustainable gifts, while more prevalent, are still hard to find in some areas. Depending on the area in which one lives, a handmade gift or store bought one might be a better option. Another option is to order green, environmentally friendly gifts from a number of different nature based websites.

While most people prefer to simply buy something from a store, or online, there are others who make gifts from recycled materials. Metal, Plastic, Wood, all are fun to work with and can be crafted into a beautiful works of art. Plastic being the easiest, then wood and metal. Wood can be carved into various animals and objects. Whereas, metal on the other hand often requires at least hand, if not more advanced tools for making art.

These are some of the most common recycled materials. There are also other ways of recycling material. Old clothes can make for great bags and belts. Whereas, other materials can often be turned into artwork and planters for gardens. All it takes is a bit of creativity and suddenly a home becomes a workshop and old becomes new again.

Organic t-shirts, dresses, skirts and other outwear is often available online and at local Natural oriented shops in different areas. These are often some of the best and most comfortable clothing one can buy. It is still important to assure that anyone wearing the clothing does not have allergies to the dye or materials.

Another unique and unusual gift an individual can give to another is that of a love for gardening. Books like "Grow Vegetables, " and others related to cooking, gardening and household issues are often appreciated. Tree huggers often also love clay planters, plants as all are of and from the earth. Whether book, or garden, cooking or online order, all of these make great gifts.

Whether male, female or transgendered, socks are a universal gift that keep giving by providing comfort and warmth.

Other ideas include items for the kitchen, or green travel accessories. Green travel accessories would include things like bamboo utensils, baskets, clean canteens, safe plastic water bottles and others. All of which make great gifts for little money. When desiring to give a larger gift, items for a picnic are often a good idea. Before giving any food or drink in a gift basket or from online orders, it is often best to check for any allergies or food issues with any recipients.
