To make your holiday choices more earth friendly are by using cloth bags instead of plastic bags. This is more earth friendly and it can also help you save money because some stores charge money for their plastic bags and I also find that you can fit more groceries in the cloth bags than you can in the plastic bags. Why not save money and find all sorts of household items or you can go into your recycling box to find any used stuff such as pop bottles, milk carton, boxes, etc. And use this stuff to make crafts for any holiday gifts. You can grow your own vegetable garden, it’s healthier for you and for your planet. You can also build your own flower and herd garden in your back yard to add color and beauty. Also, you can use paper plates to save on doing dishes and any plastics plates, cups, and utensils and any of these items can be reused. Another cool idea is to Shred used paper and is another holiday choice that is earth friendly. You can reuse the paper to make homemade paper for holiday cards, then take a wet tea bag wipe it all over the paper and let dry for an hour. this will give the paper and old paper look to it. You can also save money on gas if you buy yourself a environmental, earth friendly car. This idea would save so much money on gas and it very safe for the environment.

Another possibility is to make homemade handcreams, facial masks, makeup, clothes, bath oils, theraputic oils, incense, incense and candle holders or candles for someone special, instead of buying items that is not save for the evironmentand another great way of saving money.

All these ideas are really great for any holidays all year round. I have tried most of these ideas and I think they are amazing and very sufficient. It has saved me money over the years and I love making homemade items that is very earth friendly and you will love doing these things if you put your mind and heart to it.

So enjoy having fun with these ideas for making holiday choices more earth friendly. You will find craft ideas in books, internet, or at your local library.
