The Better Holiday Gift Guide: 50+ Ethical and Sustainable Gift Ideas to help your shopping!
How to plan for more sustainable gifts!
For the last 8 or so years, we’ve been on a journey of shopping for gifts more mindfully. We started thinking about who was making the items we’d gift, and shopping better companies. Slowly we started thoughtfully shopping second items, and moving away from physical gifts as we completely changed our philosophy on consuming. It’s s journey though, and more intentional gifting can look like many things. This guide contains some things to buy, some things to make, some ideas on alternative gifting – and a lot of the new items can also be searched second hand. Even if you can’t shop some of the items where you are, hopefully they spark some ideas and inspiration!
Here’s a little walk through our though process for choosing gifts with a lower impact, while staying on budget (I also talk through this in the video below if you prefer listening!):
- First we make a list of everyone our family is shopping for: Friends, family, stockings, work colleagues, secret Santa draws, teachers.
- We go through and see where we can eliminate tangible gifts without losing important celebration! This looks like mutually gifting to charity, organising a meal out together or event in place of gifts, or agreeing gifts don’t matter to us!
- Then we try to look at where we can gift things second hand. That can be charity shops or second hand selling sites – it doesn’t have to mean cheap. It can be vintage items and antiques!
- We look at where we can give a homemade gift of some kind.
- Then we look at where we can give consumables, things like food, coffee, wine, and things that won’t accumulate and will get used up.
- After that, we look at how we can be intentional in having a positive impact with the more traditional gifting we do.
Some of the links in this post are affiliate links. it means I make a small commission when you shop through them, but you pay no more – sometimes less. It lets me take time to write lists like this so I’m always grateful when you shop through them! But I’m also a huge proponent of second hand shopping – I’d always rather you searched out something second hand!
Ideas for more conscious holiday gifting!
1. No ‘things’ gifting: Give an experience, service, or your time, or mutually agree no gifting for a great sustainable gift!
Not gifting stuff doesn’t mean losing the joy and celebration! For my sister’s birthday I took her on a winery tour, and for another sister and brother in law we all agreed to go on a fun double date dinner in lieu of gifting to each other. Doing things together can be a great gift. In other places though we’ve mutually and joyfully agreed no gifting. I was once gifted someone making me a compost heap, and my carpenter brother gifted me installed counter tops – these gifts can be the most personal and love filled ones! And babysitting is often a great gift for parents! You could do this as a gift voucher for them to use, an invitation to do something together, or deciding together to do something or nothing, instead of gifting.
Look at tickets to shows, museum entry, a day out, a tour of something local – there are lots of different price points for experiences. It could be a home cooked dinner, or coffee out together.
2. Search for a gently used item from a charity shop or online second hand shop.
Shopping second hand can make AMAZING and thoughtful more ethical and sustainable gifts! Our favourite spots are Oxfam online (in the UK), Vinted, Poshmark or eBay!It can be a great option for a lower budget, getting more for your money, or just embracing the value of not buying new! I love choosing used clothing pieces, and searching brands creating clothes ethically even when they’re used. Here’s a list of what some brands we search used! If you’re worried about it being used (you don’t need to be, gift boldly with your values!) you can search for things “new with tags” and there are still some real bargains. But I embrace going second hand and write a note explaining the value to me behind it in terms of the planet and ethics, then I think it can be really thoughtful.
I love Oxfam online great as you can still return pieces and they have some great items!
3. Put together a sustainable “date night” basket for a family, couple, or for one.
I love doing a date night gift basket for a couple or a family! A jar of bulk popcorn is really budget friendly but fun as a gift then some chocolate or a bottle of wine or another drink, and an iTunes gift card for a movie. You could keep this on the budget end or adjust for any budget. Search out some fun charity shop mugs, include hot chocolate mix, add another gift card for food, buy socks for the movie, or add in a voucher for you babysit kids. It’s great for families with kids of various ages if you don’t know what to gift and want the ease of giving one gift!
4. Apolis Customised Market Totes
These bags from B Corporation Apolis have been one of my favourite things to gift! It’s SUCH a beautiful piece to customise for a thoughtful piece. Perfect for a parent with the places their children live, the coordinates of an event, moment, or statement. It’s also one Apolis can ship quickly so a last minute option too.

5. DIY Kombucha Brew Kit
We’ve loved this organic kombucha for years, and this year started using their kit to brew our own. It’s been such a success and we now have a weekly batch of booch that we can flavour in a range of different ways. It’s a really budget friendly thing to make, and would make a great gift!

6. For the UK: Built to Last Umbrella + other made to last gifts from Buy Me Once
We both have these umbrellas and they’re truly sturdy, strong and well made without being clunky and unstylish. They’re built to last with a guarantee too and things that last make a great sustainable forever gift. They’d make a really great gift for anyone in a rainy climate.

8. Evolve Facial in a Box
This is a bigger gift, but under £100 so it’s one we’ve gifted by going in together with other people. And it’s a beautiful gift – everything you need for a full skincare routine and some self care. All from a female founded, B Corp company and formulated well for safety and sustainability. Highly recommend!

9. Nisolo B Corp Leather Goods
Nisolo is an exemplary company in terms of sustainability, ethics, sourcing and impact. We both have a few pairs of Nisolo shoes and adore them. They’re classic, gorgeous and so well made. I’ve had the Lori bag for 5 years as my “diaper bag” and it’s perfect and timeless. The accessories come at a lower price, and the shoes are more pricey – for good reason but still out of a lot of price brackets for gifting. Nisolo is a beautiful B Corp brand where everything is made ethically and to be long lasting which is another major factor in waste creation. Ethically made. B corporation. Climate Neutral. Leather Working Group. 1% for the planet.

10. Silhouette DIY
We gave both of our parents homemade silhouette cut outs of all their grandchildren and it was a time intensive but budget friendly gift. We took profile shot of each child (it can take a while, be patient!) and then used an online background remover tool to remove the background. Next, reduce the brightness and increase the contrast so it’s a clear silhouette. You can either then print that, or just trace it from a laptop screen. After you have the printed or traced silhouette, turn it backwards and stick it onto black card and cut around it with fine scissors. Then use glue to stick the silhouette onto white card!
11. Fierce Nature Tallow Balms
This is a brand I’ve watched for a long time in the UK, and shopped their pasture raised gelatin for marshmallows and adding to recipes. They’re now making beautiful tallow based makeup that I think would make great and well priced gifts! Fierce nature have kindly given me a discount code so use KEZIA10 for 10% off!

If you have a sustainably minded craft beer lover to gift to, some Allkin cans would be a great gift!

15. Tartine Sourdough Bread Book
One of the bibles of sourdough baking. Tartine was a favourite restaurant when we lived in California and their Country Bread is my daily go to.

Find it HERE on Amazon or HERE on World of Books
16. Lodge Cast Iron Dutch Oven (+all their cast iron!)
Skillets are a gift that lasts actually forEVER. You can’t destroy a good cast iron piece. And that’s a huge reason I use it; It saves so much waste from landfill. But it’s also a teflon free, safer way to cook, that done right is still non stick, naturally. This one will sort your home cook family member, creative friend, baker, it’s an essential for taking bread baking to the next level. You could pair it with some dried sourdough starter and it’s an EPIC gift! Or the Tartine book I use for all my sourdough. Lodge also do a Rosie the Riveter pan which would be the perfect gift for the right person! There are also much lower prices single serving pans for a much lower price but equally useful and everlasting.

17. For men + women: Sustainable EWG Verified Fragrance
Available in the US and Canada with 40% off + buy one get one
There’s very little fragrance in the world that’s well formulated and also discloses every ingredient – and with 40% off, they’d make a great gift too. The full size bottles are $57 and the rollers are $21 but last for months. The blue one is a more ‘masculine’ scent and would make a brilliant gift for men! $21 also fits within a lot of secret santa price brackets and would make a great one – second skin is my favourite with delicate floral and warm, earthy notes, and free from harmful chemicals. Packaged in a recyclable glass bottle, it’s an elegant gift for anyone who values clean, conscious beauty.

18. Wilding Book + Kid’s Book: World of Books
These books are the story of the Knepp Estate, a large regenerative rewiding project that came to cinemas this year in the film: Wilding. The book is the incredible story of the film, a fight against tradition for the sake of the land, changing opinions, and the adversity of that journey. The book would make a great gift for a nature lover, lover of sustainability or english countryside – or someone wanting to see regeneration and wondering if it can be done.

19. Consumed by Aja Barber
A must read for everybody as we look to consume with a more positive impact. And especially everybody on the journey of caring about the way we consume. Aja writes about the clothing industry (and more) explaining start to finish what it’s actually like, it’s true impact and every aspect of why we need change. It will be the explanation, or the extra fuel someone needs for the journey.

20. Homemade Chocolate Babka Wreath
This is a fairly easy bake, that can make a beautiful gift. Delight someone with a homemade Chocolate Orange Babka (or leave out the orange) a beautifully braided sweet bread filled with rich chocolate and zesty orange. Thoughtful and made with love, this gift not only tastes incredible but also shows the care and effort of a personal touch. You can divide the recipe into 2 for a smaller babka wreath. If you want to go the extra mile, get some cake boxes like these to make them look professional! (You’ll just need to make sure you shape them in the right size for the box you use!)

21. Vital Seeds: Budget friendly!
Seeds make a really fun thoughtful budget friendly and more than sustainable gift! I’m really careful about the seeds I buy, and this is my top choice and what I always choose. Vital seeds are always organic, open pollinated and open sourced and they have a great variety!
Idea: Grab a budget friendly terracotta plant pot (like these from small business Weston Mill) and fill it with a few veggie or plant seeds for a fantastic under £5 gift!

24. Vitae Watches
International shipping
This is the best watch company with the most beautiful, ethically made watches. They’re everything I want them to be and oh how I’ve searched for ethical watches. (I mean, ones that look nice too.) These have a higher price tag, but not a higher price tag than buying one every year because they break… and they’re doing social good at the same time. In partnership with House of Wells and Pen to Paper Ghana, each piece sees a child with school uniform and solar light to make education possible. These are stunning, classic, ethically made, a company built around doing social good, black owned and just a DREAM find.

25. New or used Nudies Denim + Accessories
Internationally Available
The ultimate denim that’s really truly backed with values for a gift that lasts forever and there are lots of pieces available second hand too. I’ve gifted a lot of preloved Nudies items like shirts and jackets and they’re a brilliant gift. These pieces are truly ethically made from organic cotton, and each pair comes with free repairs for LIFE to reduce waste. They’re pricey, but not for what you’re actually getting. Nudies is a company that deeply cares about the impact of the clothing industry and they’re really working (and succeeding) at finding the clothing sales model with the most positive impact and we love them! A great gift for any deeply committed to eco ethical clothing. For a smaller gift look at a gift card or accessories.

28. Olli Ella + Hazel Village Dolls + Accessories
A beautiful timeless gift for kids. I’ve researched dolls more than I’d care to admit and this is the one item I couldn’t bring myself to get second hand. These Hazel Village and Olli Ella dolls and animals are the winners for me. Hazel village are organic materials, ethical production, a reasonable price (for this kind of item, trust me), and Olli Ella are more structured, from a B corp company and they all look gorgeously human, with neutral expressions for imaginative play, and they have multiple skin tones.

29. Rothy’s Recycled Plastic Shoes
I was given a gift card for Rothy’s four years ago and I was an instant convert and so impressed by the company. Their shoes are made from recycled plastic bottles, pulled from within 30 miles of coastlines. All ethically made and thoughtful in every step – the sole are eco friendly rubber and the shipping is all carbon neutral by offsetting, and used biodegradable paper and a ribbon of recycled materials. Four years on I now know they also hold up so well, they’re much more durable than leather in terms of how they look after 4 years – which is pretty much like new. They now have a recycling program too to keep all shoes out of landfill.

30. Local Artisan Salt
We discovered this Halon Wen salt when we ate from the UK only for a month in 2022. We loved Jaconsen salt when we lived in California. Local eating has so many benefits from emissions to economy and both these salts comes in a beautiful refillable jar that makes a gorgeous gift.

31. Sustainable and Ethical Coffee: Under £20/$20
A coffee brand thinking about everything from growers to fuel use to packaging. It’s our go to coffee, and a great gift for a conscious coffee lover. The entire roastery and production area are off grid operating fully on solar powered energy – part of making it a carbon neutral roastery. Then transparency, each coffee is accompanied by its pricing and trade data. So you can see what was paid for it, who it was bought from, and other details. And pretty packaging for gifting too!

Evolve is a beautiful female founded B Corp investing in regenerative growing, safe sustainable ingredients, and making really effective skincare.

This is my favourite whisky brand here in the UK and a brand really pushing in doing things right. They’re a B Corp, sourcing sustainably, using recycled glass, creating with renewable energy. They do smaller bottles at a lower price, full bottles, whisky and a gin style botanical spirit. It’s a beautiful British brand that would make a sustainable, local gift for someone who loves whisky. We’ve bought this before and split the cost with others – a great way to get an intentional well sourced gift and make it affordable.

WILDFARMED is a regenerative flour company and for a budding chef, home baker or eco conscious eater it could be such a great gift!

Abel are dedicated to the highest transparency in creating ethically sourced, sustainable and organic perfumes in 100% plastic free packaging.

37. Regenerative Wine from Leckford
I think drinks make a great fun and thoughtful but functional celebratory gift. And searching out a sustainable, organic more earth friendly option can be a great way to make it more thoughtful and not just a bottle! This award-winning English sparkling wine is a Waitrose one, but it’s made from sustainably grown grapes on Waitrose’s Leckford Estate – the first UK vineyard certified as regenerative which I love! It offers crisp, zesty flavors with notes of orchard fruits. A thoughtful gift for wine lovers that supports local, environmentally conscious viticulture.

38. Refillable Fountain Pen
A life long, waste saving, handwriting enhancing friend and a great gift to ask for or receive! I like ones that have refillable cartridges rather than where you need to buy cartridges but the ones we have are adjustable and can be used for both. They come in a range of prices so they can be an heirloom larger gift or a more everyday item that still lasts forever.

39. Panda Plasters: (In every stocking always!)
Every year: these. The Package Free Shop is a personal fave and GREAT place to scroll and knock out lots of gifts at once! Honestly I’ve taught my kids there needs to be a lot of blood to get a plaster so we don’t use many but still, no parabens, pthalates, biodegradable and fun for kids! Highly recommend and a needed item but also fun to throw into a stocking!
Biodegradable. Vegan. Find them HERE
40. Stainless Steel Food Box
This was my exact Christmas gift 9 years ago and it’s still going strong! It’s perfect for taking lunch to go or bringing home leftovers from a restaurant.

This is a brand I discovered when we ate locally only from England for a month. It’s fun to discover the products that are fully grown and made close to home.

And its in a fully home compostable bag making it a beautiful, useful but thoughtful gift at an affordable price.

43. Dirtea Adaptogen Powders
Internationally available
I’ve never used adaptogens until this year when Jared bought me this organic mushroom powder to go in my coffee. It’s well sourced and third party tested for quality and purity and when I started using it I really felt the reishi helped with an overactive brain and anxiety and I love taking it. It’s not cheap (£30) but it lasts months used daily and it could make a beautiful gift. They have a range of different adaptogen, coffee, and matcha blends.

Beautiful sustainably created prints, cards and fabrics with themes of the earth, land justice, peace, inclusion, and filled with the beauty of nature.

45. Yoto Player + Cards
Internationally available
Our kids (and us) ADORE the Yoto player. It’s been one of the best problem solvers we’ve bought in all of parenthood. No joke. It’s a small screen free audio player with cards you can insert to play audio books and podcasts. You can make your own cards with family recordings or buy their pre made ones – those can make great smaller gifts once you have the Yoto player. We LOVE it for early morning to keep the kids in their rooms, for car journeys and travel, and quiet time.

We don’t keep many toys in our house but Magnatiles are one that stand the test of time and are enjoyed by so many different ages. They’re a fun and educational toy that can be used in multiple ways for independent play, learning activities or group activites. These FSC certified, natural birch tiles with a non toxic finish, are a beautiful alternative. And a tree is planted for every set sold. Those plastic magnatiles don’t have any sustainable or ethical credentials but they are a screen free and very long lasting gift which I think have some real plus points too in gifting!

Frownies are facial patches that are used to smooth the skin and relax muscles. I’ve found them honestly incredible for relieving facial tension and also undoing find lines from expression by retraining the muscles.

52. Timeless Heirloom gift for kids: Patagonia jacket
I love items that can be handed down and be an heirloom. This is also a great one to ask for/buy if you want a well made, B corp, heirloom gift for your kids. The styles are classic, and they’re built to last and such high quality. We asked for these early on in parenthood and different people clubbed together to gift them to us. The Patagonia line is largely recycled, incorporating regeneratively grown resources too. And they look brand new after many seasons and 3 kids. Join a birthday and a Christmas together, club together with family or give/ask for money towards one. Buying one larger gift that lasts can be so much better than multiple smaller things!

We LOVE these! They’re really high quality, plastic free, high quality and beautiful temporary tattoos. They’re more pricey than the cheap and plentiful ones with thousands of small tattoos, but I’d rather have fewer of these one! And the quality and art is perfect to gift to kids and adults alike.
