Women’s Day is on the way up, which is a great time to commemorate Mother Earth and all the amazing ladies in our life. This year’s theme is ‘Inspire Inclusion’ and choosing environmentally conscious and sustainable presents that encourage sustainability is one effective method to stay true to the theme by not only including the females around us but also the mother who created all of us. Here are some creative eco-friendly gift ideas to inspire and excite the ladies in your life on this important day, be it your lover, mother, sister, friend, coworker, or even your female acquaintances. We have made sure to include gift ideas for one and all.
ETHICAL FASHION PIECES: Choose an item from an eco-friendly clothing line that reflects her principles, and add, “Wear what you cherish with a sense of pride” or, “The wearer of this piece is just as vigilant and lovely as it is.” Some of the best eco-friendly clothing brands include No Nasties, Teemill, Eco Kaila, Eco-TerraSprout amongst others.
CUSTOMIZED MAP: A personalized map with the saying, “Every place bears its own tale, yet nothing as extraordinary as yours,” featuring a location that bears special meaning for her, such as her hometown, her place of education, or a dream vacation. You can also add, “Cheers to the travels that mold us.”
PERSONALIZED PUZZLE: A jigsaw with the International Women’s Day saying, “Life is a wonderful puzzle, bit by bit, uncover your happiness”, and a map of destinations she likes or has always wanted to visit. This unusual Happy Women’s Day gift blends perfectly with inspiration to explore and discover happiness along the way with a personal passion. You can try buying them at shops such as Canvas Champ IN, yourPrint, Amazon, etc.
A PIECE OF PHOTO PRINT ART: Pick a painting that captures her essence or passions, then combine it with any of the Women’s Day quotes or you can even add a little self-written poem for her and add that special touch of love. Her appreciation of the arts and beauty is honored by this gift. TheSassyTrunk, Sytara Star Maps, Ritwikas, etc. are some of the sellers of these print arts pieces.
BEESWAX WRAPS: Giving reusable beeswax wraps as a gift might help cut down on plastic waste in the kitchen. These multipurpose wraps are an eco-friendly substitute for plastic cling film because they are ideal for food preservation and can be cleaned and reused repeatedly. You can find these wraps on Amazon, Honey Boutique, Brown Living, etc.
TRADE FAIR PRODUCTS: Choosing trade fair gifts, such as handcrafted items, textiles, or accessories, can support trade fair practices and uplift women artists worldwide. These sustainably sourced goods uphold traditional craftsmanship while fostering social and economic empowerment.
DIY ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY GIFTS: Create inventive and personalized DIY environment-friendly kits based on her interests. Personalized gift packages are sure to please, whether they are zero-waste starter kits with reusable straws and cutlery. DIY skincare kits made with natural components, or gardening kits made with biodegradable pots and seeds.
REUSABLE TRAVEL COFFEE MUG: Reusable travel coffee mugs are a more environmentally responsible option than single-use cups. It is useful for transporting warm beverages on the go and contributes to waste reduction. Some of these even include features like insulation, leak-proof lids, and a pleasant grip. Nowadays, almost every e-commerce platform sells these cups and you can choose any one according to your convenience.
ECO-FRIENDLY DOCKING STATION: Another lovely gift idea is a docking station constructed from recycled plastic or bamboo, for example, sustainable materials. One can seek for those docking stations that are fueled by energy from renewable sources or have energy-saving features. There are several brands that put environmental sustainability first without compromising usability and some of them include Punya, Cladd International, etc.
Thus, let us commemorate our commitment to environmental protection this Women’s Day by commemorating the women who empower us. We may honor the remarkable women in our life as well as the splendor of the natural world by selecting eco-friendly gifts. Last but not the least, if any woman is reading this don’t wait for anybody else to give you any of these. Just remember to stick to the lyrics of the Hailee Steinfeld song, “Gonna love myself, no, I don’t need anybody else” because as they say self-love is the best form of love one can have.
