Santa's List Of Eco-Conscious Stocking Stuffers

Whether you need a few small, last-minute gifts or just a couple things to toss into a stocking on the mantle piece, there's no reason not to think green. Here are four gifts you should give a go.


1. Seed Bombs

These small little packages are meant to help you practice random acts of gardening throughout the year. The reusable pouch is filled with five gumball-sized balls of plantable seeds. With over twenty varieties available, Seed Bombs is prepared to meet the specific gardening needs and wants of any of your friends or family. Better yet, all Seed Bomb packages are priced under $10.00.

Made out of an Etsy shop, purchasing Seed Bombs also supports small businesses.


2. S'well Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle

All reusable water bottles are a good idea. They help you stay hydrated throughout the day while cutting down on the consumption and disposal of plastic bottles. With the whole of the United States throwing out over 35 billion plastic bottles a year, the planet needs all the help it can get. Coming in many sizes and colors, the S'well bottle is perfect for any demographic. Costing $35.00, the S'well water bottle is slightly on the pricier side. This is because the bottle promises to keep cold beverages icy for a full twenty-four hours and hot beverages steaming for twelve hours and, as a S'well bottle owner, let me tell you they keep their promises.


3. LUSH Bath Bombs

Everyone deserves a relaxing bath every now and then, and LUSH bath bombs are here to help save the planet while decreasing your stress levels, making your skin feel like butter, and your very essence smell like roses. LUSH bath bombs are produced from sustainably sourced fair-trade ingredients, and are often vegan and made with no preservatives. With almost 30 varieties sold, LUSH caters to all skin types, which lets you pick the best bomb for your friend. All bath bombs cost under $10.00.


4. Beeswax Ornament Candles

Beautifully sculpted to look like tree ornaments, these pure beeswax candles are a perfect addition to anyone's stocking, but preferably a candle lovers. Made from the nectar of flowers by honeybees, pure beeswax emits a subtle honey-like fragrance. These candles are all natural and free of paraffin and other toxins.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.
