Timely and appreciated Green Gifts for natural Girlfriends!

You know the girlfriend, don’t you? She’s been green since before green was the new black! She inspires you be conscientious of your purchases and lifestyle. She reminds you to recycle. And she is the first one to know about a locavore restaurant or new way to compost! So, get with it girlfriend! We better start gifting green too!

Here are some enviro-friendly gifts for your enviro-friendly female friends. (And don’t forget the recycled card too!)

RECYCLED MESSENGER BAGS (above) Hand dyed and hand crafted by Cambodian women out of recycled bags carrying commodities like rice, each of these accessories is one of a kind. The durable, cotton-lined messenger bag has lots of pockets so you can use it to carry books, a change of clothes or extra diapers. Lined in 100% cotton, the bags are durable, sturdy, and practical – and the perfect gift for a busy green girlfriend on the go!

RECYCLED FLIP FLOP TRASH CANS (above) & MATS Your girlfriend can clean her feet or her room – and the environment at the same time – using these colorful and durable mats with a storied past. Sandal factories have always generated surplus foam rubber in the production of their flip-flops. Instead of heading to a landfill, that flip-flop rubber is now made into these doormats, using galvanized metal wire.

RECYCLED WRAPPER CLUTCH – This eye-catching clutch is made from crisscrossed shiny and graphically great candy wrappers. The rainbow checkerboard effect adds instant punch to any getup and shows that you love the Earth just as much as fashion. The clutch is perfectly sized for going out with just the essentials like phone, keys, glasses, some cash and makeup.
RECYCLED GLASS BOTTLE EARRINGS- She’ll love these! Handmade in Georgia by artist Kathleen Plate, these funky and inventive earrings are made from real beer, wine and water bottles. Plate’s “circle” line is made from cutting and firing the recycled glass, then finishing with sterling silver accents to create a true statement piece that will always quench your thirst for style.

And, admittedly you probably won’t give your girlfriends light bulbs for a gift, but there are lots of green items here for you, your home and your ‘green’ BFF. Check out their grocery totes, bulbs, home and garden items – and even things for your (or your girlfriend’s) baby!
