Ideas for Sustainable Gifts

by Maria Nelson

In the next few days we all go into a bit of a frenzy and try to get presents quickly or get ‘stuff for the sake of it  . I thought I’d post a list of  some gift ideas that are local, sustainable or even zero waste. Some are links to items from my pages, collections or workshops and some are links to my favourite local makers and sellers.

 

  1. For the gift of experience (zero waste) book in to one of my workshops in my Indooroopilly studio
