Valentine's Day Gift Ideas

Hi guys,

Today I am going to give you some sustainable Valentine gift ideas. I know people have mixed feelings about Valentine’s Day, which I totally understand. I love it even though I am not dating someone. This year, I am doing a fun galentine’s day dinner with my friends. We are baking desserts, ordering food, and doing a cute little gift exchange. I would highly recommend celebrating in some way, shape, or form because if you are single who cares, you might as well enjoy the holiday. One of my mottos in life is “embrace the suck,” and I think that applies here. Some people are happy with being single, so in that case this motto may not apply. I am fine with being single, but at the same time it would be nice to have someone, but I am not going to dwell on that. I am going to have a blast with my friends who I know will be there for me much longer than most guys will. These gifts can both be given to your partner and to your friends. Let’s get started!!

Valentine’s Day Gifts:

1. Conscious Step

Guys, hear me out please. I know socks are not the most romantic thing or your friend might not want a pair of socks, but I came across an amazing brand. This brand sells socks dedicated to all causes. They would be the perfect thing to add to a cute little gift box. They are all sustainably sourced and produced in ethical workplaces. Here are a few of my favorites:

Just buying one pair of these socks allows two survivors of violence to have access to justice.

socks that stop violence against women

Although blue is not necessarily a Valentine’s day color, red and purple sure are. Some profit made from buying a pair of these socks is donated to the Trevor Project.

Look how cute these heart socks are. Buying a pair will help fight childhood cancer. They are called socks that find a cure.

1. Alighieri

This company creates high quality pieces sustainably. They use recycled gold and silver. Any waste produced is used the next day in the creation of a new design. These beautiful pieces are hand carved and just absolutely stunning.

These shoes are not only stylish, but they respect the environment. They are made from organic cotton and other materials that are nicer to the environment. Here are a few examples:
