The festive season is a time for giving but as we’re all becoming more conscious of our carbon footprint and plastic consumption, physical gifts are now being replaced with experiences and personalised tokens of appreciation.
Conscious living blog, Becoming Minimalist, has put together a quick guide of clutter-free gifts that can be purchased last minute, and we’ve added a few of our own that can be delivered straight to your inbox that you can give this Christmas that not only mean more but also cost less and won’t have a negative impact on the environment.
