Shopping for gifts 🎁 is already so stressful. Even more so if you need to find gifts for friends and family who are vegan! Most people associate veganism with avoiding particular food such as honey, eggs, milk, fish, and meat. However, there is more than that. Many vegans also avoid products made from animal-related materials, including wool, silk, beeswax, and leather. There sure are a lot of boxes to tick to meet vegan gift criteria. Please don't just give them gift cards and ask them to get themselves something vegan-friendly just because you don't have the time to research vegan-friendly gifts. Fear not, let me help you with some gift ideas to reduce your gift shopping stress. These sustainable and eco-friendly products are gentle on our planet, and they are great gifts for special occasions such as Christmas, birthdays, anniversaries, or Valentine's Day. May this shift create an eco-conscious effect that would make an even more significant impact overall.
Teak Leaf Collection
These simple yet stylish and gorgeous bags are the products of teak leaf leather. Each bag is unique with individual characters and expressions because no two leaves' venation is the same. It is the perfect blend of nature and sophistication. I love these as gifts, and I am sure you will too.
1. Akira Tote
3. Maya Wallet
Cork Collection
Cork is a natural material obtained from the outer bark layer of the oak tree, which would grow back. Some variations in colors and markings make each bag unique. Cork products are 100% natural, eco-friendly, recyclable, biodegradable, cruelty-free, non-allergenic, and sustainable.
4. Carleigh Handbag
Tyvek Paper Collection
This collection looks like paper bags, but of course, it is not. The material used is called Tyvek (high-density spunbound polyethylene fibers), and it just looks like paper, with the same coloring and texture. I like to call it paper 2.0. It is highly durable, lightweight, and waterproof.
7. Lewis Tyvek Paper Backpack
The design is pretty standard, but it will turn heads for sure because, at a glance, it sure looks like you are carrying a paper backpack. This backpack is perfect for school, travel, and visits to cafes.
8. Maggie Crossbody bag
I don't know about you, but I hardly see anyone carrying a round handbag anymore. This classic design with paper-like material is quite pretty and retro. It is great for shopping, dating, or hanging out with friends. I love pairing this with jeans.
9. Eco-Tote
This classic bag never gets old with its simple but sleek design. It is custom-made, light, easy to fold up and bring it anywhere. There is plenty of space for all your essentials and then some. It is even large enough for your small breed dog or cat. This bag is truly an ideal all-purpose bag that you can use for just about everything. The best part is you still look lovely and fashionable.
10. Portia Straw Clutch
Beautifully handwoven and crafted using straws. This straw clutch is fashionable and easy to pair with many different outings. It is big, beachy, unique, and trendy to carry. It can hold lipstick, mobile phone, notebook, tablet, tissues, keys, and cards. They come in 5 attractive colors.
Plan B 😏
If all else fails, go to your nearest nursery and get a pot of plant. I strongly recommend the snake plant (also known as mother-in-law's tongue 🤷). This low-maintenance houseplant is super easy to look after. It strives when being neglected. You only need to water it occasionally. Snake plants are also said to purify indoor air.
