Sustainable Christmas Gift Guide: 30 Homeware Ideas

How can we celebrate a more sustainable Christmas?
The answer touches all the aspects of the holiday season, from decorating, to gift giving and entertaining.

In the past weeks we’ve seen:

• how to decorate sustainably for Christmas
• eco-friendly gift wrapping and holiday card ideas

 
So now it’s time to look into gifts!
I’ve compiled a huge gift guide this year, with a total of 30 sustainable interior design presents divided in: accessories, tableware and textiles, namely the three categories of objects that fit the most for a gift!

All items are taken from SforSustainable, where I curate a selection of sustainable interior design products and materials. And where – if the ones below are not enough – you can find even more ideas for thoughtful, useful and sustainable gifts!
