Top 5 Eco Friendly Gift Ideas

Here at Anna Davies, we understand that there are a lot of things to consider when gift shopping for our loved ones, with sustainability becoming more and more of a priority. As much as we love giving presents, we don't want those gifts to end up in a landfill somewhere down the line. This is why we believe that it's important that gifts are not only valued by your loved ones but also environmentally friendly.

We've pulled together some of our luxury eco-friendly gifts to make the shopping process easier for you.

 

GIFTS FOR ECO-FRIENDLY PEOPLE

When talking about gifts that are good for the environment, we often think of items made from materials that are biodegradable. Unfortunately, however, there is already a lot of waste plastic in the world which ends up in our landfills and oceans. That's why it's also important to consider green gifts made from these waste products.

Roka Bags make an eco-friendly gift that would suit anyone who has the environment in mind. Their bags are made from the plastic bottle lids that litter our beaches, resulting in beautiful bags that are functional and are made with the environment in mind.

Another brand that also focuses on taking waste plastic from our oceans is Weaver Green. Over 35 billion plastic bottles find their way into our oceans, so Weaver Green take these bottles and make beautiful items that are great sustainable gifts. You wouldn't be able to tell from looking at or feeling their beautiful rugs and throws, but they are woven from up to 300 plastic bottles. They feel and look like real wool but are in fact helping to remove plastic from our landfills and oceans.

Take a look at some of the Scandinavian-inspired rugs and throws below.

ECO-FRIENDLY CLOTHING

When looking for eco-friendly gifts, clothing is always a great option. We have a variety of sustainable clothing in our store, you're sure to find the perfect gift!

ERIBÉ Knitwear is an eco-conscious brand that sources natural yarns and focuses high quality and eco-conscious living. See a selection of our colourful jumpers below.

Barbour is a member of Better Cotton Initiative and use sustainably sourced cotton, with 100% of their waxed cotton sourced from the BCI. Here are some of our favourite Barbour products that would make great gifts.

Another sustainable brand of note is White Stuff. A British fashion and lifestyle brand, they have a wide range of clothing that uses ethically sourced materials. Peruse our variety of White Stuff clothing below!

Luxury sheepskin slippers are also a great option. The environmental impact from using real sheepskin is much lower than their man-made counterparts. They also last much longer!

SUSTAINABLE HOMEWARE GIFTS

Some people can be difficult to purchase clothing for, in which case homeware can be a great alternative! We have some wonderful options available, including a wooden Peter Rabbit figurine and some animal figurines made from recycled tin cans.

ECO-FRIENDLY TOILETRIES

Another great option for an eco-friendly gift for your friends or family can be nice-smelling soaps, lip balms, fragrances or bath salts! Did you know that only around 50% of bathroom recyclables are actually recycled? That's why the better approach is to go for products that are better for the environment and can help reduce plastic waste.

ECO-FRIENDLY GIFTS FOR KIDS

Children outgrow clothes quickly and grow bored with toys, which is why it's key to try and consider this when purchasing for kids. Below is a selection of eco gifts that are not only ethically sourced, they also won't contribute to unnecessary waste.

We all know how rambunctious children can be, which often results in accidental damage to their belongings. That's why bamboo gifts are a great choice for kids! Bamboo is fast-growing, requires little water or tending to and is naturally renewable, making it a great material for all manner of things.

It is even a great source of eco-friendly baby gifts too! Babies outgrow their clothing and toys even faster than kids, so it's even more important to consider their environmental impact when purchasing gifts for babies.
