Of course the holidays are much more than giving gifts. Spending time with friends and family is the best gift of all. When entertaining your loved ones try to make your celebrations as environmentally friendly as possible. There are so many simple things that you can do to help the environment but here are just a few quick tips that can make your holidays a little greener!

Bright idea: Holiday Lights
Deck the halls and boughs with the latest in energy-saving light: LED string lights. They use much less electricity and last longer than conventional ones.

Imaginative wrapping: Think outside the box
When you think recycled, let your imagination roam beyond plain newsprint! Reuse old wrapping paper or put your gifts in reusable bags or boxes. Be creative about giving old materials new life. Use scraps of fabric, magazines, or calendars make great patchwork bags or collage wrapping paper.

Holiday table: Setting it earth-friendly
When selecting your flatware and cutlery, stick with the old fashioned kind. Use real plates, utensils and glasses. Paper disposable products may be more convenient, but they are not environmentally friendly at all. Additionally, try using cloth napkins instead of paper napkins. They not only look nicer and make a better presentation, but they can be easily washed and reused on your next occasion. Again, if you must use disposable products, look for goods made from recycled items that can be recycled or composted when used.
