Eco Friendly Gift Ideas for Mother’s Day
Looking for eco-friendly gift ideas for Mother’s Day to put a smile on Mom’s face and be kind to Mother Nature?
You’re not alone.
If you’re reading this, then I know you don’t want to be a jerk face to the planet.
Please be sure to only get these items for Mom if she actually needs it and/or will use it. Otherwise, it will just be dust-collecting clutter and that’s not why you’re reading this, right? I got you. 😉
Keep in mind, the most eco-friendly gift you can give Mom is an experience instead of a thing.
But times are weird and it’s possible that you may not even be spending physical time with her this Mother’s Day.
Although I’ve never met your beautiful, Queen Mama, I’m sure she would appreciate a video call and a heartfelt card.📱💌
Or unleash your inner DIY QUEEN 👑 and make her something awesome like upcycling a vintage book into a journal.
Bonus points if you made everything from supplies you already own! ✂️
With all that being said, here are a few ideas to show mom some love this Mother’s Day and introduce her to some sweet zero waste products.
You’re about to rock her world. She’ll never know how she made it so far in life without them!
