    do you guys know eco Christmas gifts?

    Christmas is a time for celebration. A fun time with family and friends where enjoy good food, good company and lots of presents. But along with this comes a pretty heavy carbon footprint.Christmas, and gift giving in particular, has the potential to be the least environmentally-friendly time of year. How many Christmas gifts have your received or even given which have been unwanted, thrown away or stored in the bottom of the wardrobe? Do you have exclusive Christmas Gift Ideas for a splendid celebration?

    Choosing a ‘green' Christmas gift is one of the easiest things you can to do to reduce your carbon footprint. Of course, the greenest Christmas gift is the one not given. But giving is one of the great joys of Christmas. We all love the feeling of making family and friends feel loved and appreciated. You don't need to give that up to have a greener Christmas. By making a few small changes you can give the environment a happy Christmas too!

    I use Christmas cards from the year before as gift tags. The off-cut card goes out for recycling.

    I have actually found a ton of green Christmas gifts myself. One of the best would have to be the new Kindle Fire.

    Hi - this year a new eco-friendly compound used to make home decor items was introduced. It took 6 years to develop it and it has numerous environmental benefits. I haven't posted enough here to be able to give you a link but if you google this phrase: "CompoClay eco friendly decor eco friendly gifts" a little way down there should be a link to a store called uniquegiftsanddecor. Please check it out as we are really pleased to offer this line.
