Holiday Gift Ideas From The Green Bride Guide 

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Do you know any brides-to-be? I know several…And I am one…Sort of. You see, I am happily married to the love of my life and have been for almost 5 years, but we plan to renew our vows and have a “real” ceremony in the (hopefully) near future.

So I am always on the look-out for great wedding supplies, especially those that are eco-friendly and made from repurposed or sustainable materials. As a green enthusiast, I am always looking for ways to help preserve the environment and help reduce my family’s carbon footprint.

So of course when I learned about Green Bride Guide, I was beyond excited. This is a huge online store that specializes in green, luxurious items that are sure to make any wedding day absolutely magical…All while staying green! They use fallen trees, repurposed materials, and recycled items to make beautiful, one of a kind items that are sure to help create lasting memories.

But even if you’re not getting married or shopping for a bride-to-be, Green Bride Guide has a ton of amazing, non-wedding-related products for the home, for kids, and even for your furry friends. I especially love their housewares, since we recently bought a home of our own. Here are some of my absolute favorite finds.

How awesome are these home items? I absolutely adore them! But in addition to great bridal supplies and housewares, Green Bride Guide has 5 wonderful gift ideas for $25 or less. What a fantastic way to give green gifts without breaking the bank!

Beechwood Bird Kitchen Utensils
Liven up your kitchen with this gorgeous set of whimsical beechwood bird kitchen utensils! These sensational spoons are laser-engraved to ensure the images will not fade, they won’t scratch or damage non-stick cookware, and they do not impart any flavor!

Pearlescent Salt and Pepper Shakers
Indonesian artistry is showcased in the opalescent mother of pearl with Pearlescent Salt and Pepper Shakers. These elegant serving accessories includes one of nature’s most beautiful offerings from a fully sustainable source. These sleek, compact mother-of-pearl salt and pepper shakers make the set complete. A thoughtful gift for everyday use.

Hand & Foot Care Gift Set: Refresh
Want to give someone a special gift? Give them the gift of touch. What better way to give a memorable gift than by giving someone a neck and shoulder massage, a hand or foot massage, maybe a mani-pedi, or all the above? Incorporate a little aromatherapy and you have the perfect formula for putting them into a state of bliss. This little Hand & Foot Care aromatherapy gift set contains everything you need to deliver the goods! Keeps hands and feet in tip-top shape and smelling great!

Recycled Glass Ring
Bright, colorful, fun and oh so affordable! These amazing eco friendly rings are created from the antique glass reclaimed throughout the wooded habitats in the Pennsylvania Amish Country. vintage Mason jars Glass is handcut and fired producing tons of beautiful seed bubbles in the glass, and mounted on a sterling plated platinum ring. The silver back reflects the light through the pretty transparent glass giving the look of a constant glow! Band is fully adjustable to fit everyone with a comfortable fit. Top of ring measures 1/2″ around.

The 5th item is the one I received for review. The Happiness Wooden Coaster Set gives a positive message while having a delightful, rustic feel. This set of four coasters is handmade from the branch of a fallen maple tree, making them a unique and eco-friendly gift or decor piece. The coasters are kept as natural as possible. Each coaster is finished with 2 coats of water based polyurethane that is traditionally used to seal hardwood floors. You will receive the 4 coasters that will look very similar to the photo, but each set is custom made to order, so natural variances should be expected. That’s right! Each coaster is literally one of a kind.

Overall, I love Green Bride Guide. This site is amazing, and has a wide selection of eco-friendly products sure to fit into any style or decor. I love how passionate this company is about preserving our planet, and their green products are so creative! They even offer carbon-neutral shipping! I would definitely recommend Green Bride Guide for all of your Holiday, wedding, and even household needs. Shopping here proves that going green can be very chic, and style doesn’t have to be sacrificed.
