Sustainability. The gift that keeps giving

The holidays are a time for recharging, connecting with family and enjoying time off. But unfortunately this time of year also means mountains of wrapping paper, unwanted gifts, and damage our environment cannot take. At Blem, we’ve made a list of tips and gift ideas for a happy and sustainable holiday that you and our planet will enjoy.

Eco-friendly Holiday Tips

Tip 1: Buy Things That Last

Choose gifts crafted with quality and sustainability in mind. Opt for pieces made to endure, thoughtfully designed to be valued and used for years to come, not just a season.

Tip 2: Shop Locally

Support small, independent brands like Blem that value quality, sustainability, and craftsmanship. Every purchase helps keep creativity and care alive in the products we make and the communities we’re part of.

Tip 3: Use Eco-friendly Wrapping

Skip glittery, non-recyclable paper and choose brown, recycled, or decorated scrap paper. Reuse old boxes and bags, and avoid tape and glitter where you can.
