Remember, what we consume ends up consuming us. Buy with care, buy less and buy quality. If you’re into Marie Kondo’s philosophy then you should know that the first step to a clutter-free and minimalistic lifestyle is being conscious of what you bring into the house because they all ultimately turn into a gigantic mess.

 

Say no to gifts if you think people are not into the concept of minimalistic and low-waste lifestyle. And if they insist, ask them to just gift you a bunch of flowers, organic wine or adaptogenic chocolates.  Saying no to gifts might be awkward at first but people will eventually appreciate it and respect your honesty. I personally think it’s more disrespectful when people exchange gifts as Rachel does on Friends, never use them (collecting dust) or donate them away. 

 

If we are going to give gifts then we might as well make it sustainable and chic, something they can also use on an everyday basis and something they really need – For example: sweaters and gloves. Sustainable gifts don’t have to be perfect but they have to be bought with some thought and care. I hope you like this list, find the tips helpful and find something you love. Let me know what you think. Happy Holidays 🙂
