Guest Blogger: Julie & Lindsey of Coveiter (Earth Friendly Holiday Finds)

Hi MadebyGirl readers! We're Julie & Lindsey and we run a style blog called Coveiter where we try and keep things green as much as possible. Jennifer asked us to share some of our favorite earth friendly holiday finds. So, we gathered some up to share with you today. Take a look:

Need something fashionable and friendly to the earth? For gifting or holiday wear, check out these Broken Blossoms Depression Glass Earrings or this Recycled T-shirt Pin. And, for more great fashionable finds that are good for the earth be sure to search: teamecoetsy on etsy.com.


For the home, recycled glasses have been popping up everywhere, but these Green Glass Tumblers are our faves. You could pair them with a wine barrel lazy susan, add a few eco-friendly candles and have a beautiful earth tablescape ready for holiday dinner.

You can also deck the halls with a recycled wreath. We spotted sweater wreaths, and although they aren't available any longer, it looks like a fun weekend project. For other signs of the season, snag a festive wreath made from recycled road signs.

Once you've found that perfect eco-friendly gift, there's no need for paper gift wrap—it just ends up in the trash! Buy Baggu bags in red or green and add some fun ribbon (recycled from years past) and you have packaging that won’t clog up landfills since the recipient can resuse it year round! Other options are reusing items we know you have around the house like those paper + plastic shopping bags you’ve acquired despite your efforts. A big thanks to Jennifer for letting us share these ideas with you..

Have a happy + eco-friendly holidays!
