Green Holiday Ideas

With Thanksgiving less than two weeks away, it’s time to start planning for green Holiday celebrations.  To get things kicked off, I’ve scoured the web in search of environmentally-friendly holiday frills.  Here are a two ideas for getting started.

Do you send Holiday greeting cards?  Here’s an eco-friendly option for you…and one that kindly reminds the recipient to celebrate green this year.  The card above is  made from 100% recycled paper, 50% of which is post-consumer content.  These recycled greeting cards are available at Cards Direct.

The festive and environmentally friendly wrapping paper shown above is made from 100% post consumer recycled fibers.  It’s printed with vegetable inks, and is chlorine free.  One package contains 2 large sheets, and there are matching gift tags available.  What’s even better is that the paper is made in the USA, and packaged by adults with disabilities.   The recycled wrapping paper is available at Earth Love’n Paper Products. You know, if you’re careful, you can reuse wrapping paper a couple times before it’s wrecked.
