With Christmas just around the corner, I thought it a nice idea to collate some gift ideas. So, whether you’ve got a pesky Secret Santa, you know someone going on their trip of a lifetime in 2019, or just have a ‘child of the earth’ type to buy for (let’s be honest, we all know one). Take a look below at these gifts and stocking filler ideas for people who love planet earth. I for one would be happy to receive any of these gifts. Hint hint.
All photos are links. Happy shopping.
#1 Bucket List Scratch Poster
I love this ‘100 things to do before you die’ scratch poster. If you know an adventure seeker that’s been there and done that (or is trying to), this poster visually tells the story. It’s also a fabulous helper for planning that next trip. Bucket list ideas anyone?
#2 Pela Case
Shop Now & Stop Plastic. Pela case has designed various designs of phone cases made from plant-based materials. These cute cases come in different colours and styles which are sometimes aimed at particular causes.
#3 Personalised Photo Album
Help someone remember their trip of a lifetime. If you know someone who is going on a special holiday or honeymoon, why not prompt them to print out their photos and create a gorgeous coffee table album? I mean come on, what if something happens to FaceBook?!
I love these! You can personalise a bracelet to include coordinates significant to you or a loved one. If you know someone going away, try their home coordinates. Or, maybe you want to get your SO the coordinates of the place you first met? These bracelets are handcrafted in Baliby local artists so you can feel good about buying them too. Win Win.
#6 Colour in World Map Mug
We all know someone that would rather be somewhere else. This mug is the perfect work time distraction. Similar to a scratch map, this mug allows you to colour in the countries you’ve visited.
#7 Reusable Straw
Final Straw (get it) are saving the Earth and those turtles (we’ve all seen that video) by selling sexy looking reusable straws. Complete with case, drying rack and cleaning bits. Help an eco-warrior save the world, set a good example and look good whilst doing it. #Nomoreplasticstraws
#8 JEWELLERY CARRY CASE
Everyone buys jewellery whilst they’re away. It’s an affordable, attractive memento. These jewellery cases are perfect for taking on the road and they’re adorable!
#9 Home Country Necklace
Joint present alert! These necklaces are simple and personal. Choose your home country and even add a little heart to your exact home location. Home is where the heart it. Pop one of these into #8 and you’re onto a personalised dream present.
#10 BAM Bamboo Socks
Toby’s mum gave me a pair of these and I’m obsessed with them. They are so soft. I wish I’d had them to take away with me for long journeys and air-conditioned nights. I’ve shared their Christmas range but plenty of styles are available. You won’t want to go back to wearing regular socks.
#11 Star Projector Lamp
Who says night lights have to be for kids? These lamps give a psychedelic touch to any room. Chances are if you know someone that loves Earth, they’ll likely enjoy space too. I can’t think of anything I’d rather gaze at before falling asleep.
Lonely Planet is so popular amongst tourists of any kind, their publications cover all sorts of breaks. If you know someone who loves learning about different cultures and is constantly hunting for the next perfect trip why not give them a year-long gift?
#13 World Map Wall Sticker
These wall stickers are a perfect way to show off the memories you cherish the most, in your home. Surround them with photos taken from around the world and you’re looking at a global photo album. Perfect for that friend who seems to have been everywhere.
#14 Travel T-Shirt
These T-shirts (available for men and women) show the quote ‘I’ve not been everywhere, but it’s on my list’. Perfect for the T loving travel addict.
#15 Eco Friendly & Sustainable Products
If you know someone who is trying to make a lifestyle change and ditch the plastic, why not give them a hand? A homemade sustainable stocking could introduce them to some new brands and start something special. From toiletries to household products, help someone to make the switch. That’s good for everyone.
