Going green is currently much more than just a trend; many consider living a more environmentally lifestyle as a core part of their personality. Whether attending a dinner party or visiting as a houseguest, buying your hostess an ecologically friendly gift is a thoughtful way to show your support to anyone passionate about leading a green life. - To make a big impact at any green dinner party, take along a bottle of tasty and ecologically friendly certified organic wine. Produced in an environmentally responsible manner designed to enhance biodiversity and lessen the impact of manufacturing, these wines are made with grapes certified as organic by the United States Department of Agriculture. Organic wine is made all over the globe, ranging from France to California to New Zealand, and is offered in both red and white varieties. With a wide selection that can be deliciously paired with any appetizer or main course, a bottle of organic wine will please any green hostess.
- The perfect gift for a houseguest to present to the hostess, a recycled doormat is an attractive and eco-friendly item suitable for any green home. One version is made entirely from discarded flip-flops; the doormat features a one-of-a-kind diamond pattern and offers an aesthetically pleasing burst of color from its sheer variety of component parts. Not only can the flip-flop doormat be easily cleaned and used either indoors or outdoors, but it also helps its flip-flop pieces stay out of landfills. Another option is constructed out of recycled rubber and is designed to look like a pebbled walkway. Easily cleaned with a garden hose, this doormat is specifically made to remove dirt from shoes. Whatever design you choose, an attractive doormat manufactured from recycled material looks perfect in front of an ecologically friendly house.
- For the hostess who has everything, a green gift basket provides a variety of items sure to be used and enjoyed in any environmentally friendly house. Each basket can contain a range of personal care and grooming gifts all packaged together in an attractive, green and fully recyclable basket. All of the included items should be held to the highest standards; only organic or natural ingredients, no artificial dyes or preservatives are used and no animal testing. Stop into a natural food or health store to find appropriate items and choose those that mesh well with your hostess's personality. With the marriage of eco-friendly production and high-quality products, a green gift basket will be welcomed by your hostess.
