Green Gift Baskets - Green Living Tip Brought to you by Ideal Bite

www.idealbite.comWas your last hospitality gift a clear foul?

The Bite
Rebound with an eco gift basket. Great for clients and employees alike, when you gotta give a gift, baskets full of green goodies (like eco-chocolates) make for an easy slam dunk.

The Benefits

  • No time-out for crappy gifts. Who couldn't use a little more biodynamic champagne in their life?
  • Defense for the planet. The goods in these baskets are eco - think organic teas (fewer pesticides) and reusable bottles (which your giftee can use to avoid plastic ones) - and often consumable (no knickknacks they'll later need to dump).
  • No health violations. Choosing organic shows you care about the giftee's health, since there are fewer pesticides involved.

Jen BiedermanJen From Renewable Choice Says:  It's super easy to make your own green gift basket.  If you are like me, my mother and grandmother, you have a bunch of old baskets around from previous years gifts.  Simply grab one of those baskets; create your own stuffing by using the Sunday comics, simply shred some newspaper or re-use some old tissue paper; add some stuff you already have around the house you are not using- some tea bags, bath beads, a journal, a favorite book, etc...  The fact that it was a home-made gift will go far and touch the recipient's heart.  I'd love to hear about your home-made gifts: Email Me.  ~Jen
