Plant an evergreen memory and offer gifts that are rooted in eco-sensitivity
From ancient times, nature has been consistently portrayed as feminine in epics, writings, and poetry. Renowned poets such as Byron too have articulated, “Dear nature is the kindest mother still.” As the world observes International Women’s Day on March 8, honour the planet too while sending gifts to your mother, siblings, or a special someone. Explore nature-friendly gifting options as a thoughtful tribute to Mother Earth.
Here is our list of specially curated green ideas to make this day even more special:
Artisanal jewellery
Handcrafted by skilled artisans and completely devoid of machine-driven processes, artisanal jewellery is a unique gifting choice that aligns with eco-friendly objectives. Bamboo, golden grass, waste wood, palm leaves, and fabric are some of the unconventional yet eco-friendly materials used in these products. Many online stores, local shops, and international brands now offer this jewellery with an environmentally friendly statement.

Advanced Indoor- garden kits
In this fast-paced world with limited outdoor spaces in apartment complexes, consider gifting indoor garden kits that can even be placed on a window ledge. It’s like a tiny garden that doesn’t need soil but uses water with plant nutrients.
The special light attached to these kits acts like sunlight for the plants. You don’t have to worry about adding soil; it comes with plant nutrients, and there will be a reminder to add water. Herbs and leafy vegetables, like lettuce, grew so fast in these specially designed kits.
Vegan skincare products
Vegan skincare products primarily consist of formulations made from natural, plant-derived ingredients, including fruits, vegetables, herbs, nuts, seeds, and flower oils sourced from non-animal origins. Enriched with natural components such as coconut oil, avocado, aloe vera, and shea butter, these products refrain from using animal-derived ingredients and abstain from animal testing. These skincare items are dedicated to safeguarding biodiversity and paying due respect to nature.

Eco-friendly bags crafted from organic materials present a commendable gifting option. These include trendy and stylish tote bags, handbags, and lunch bags suitable for day-to-day office use, fashioned from materials like jute, cotton, or linen.
From laptop bags and travel kits to even stylish printed bags for purchasing groceries, these bags are designed with meticulous environmental consideration. They serve not only as stylish, eco-friendly accessories but also emphasize your commitment to protecting Mother Earth.
