When it comes to holiday shopping, I favor stopping at ethical marketplaces over shopping malls. I first met Nisolo at an ethical marketplace in LA, and I am proud to say that they have since then created a place of their own, and virtually no less! Curated with goods from other companies that I support, including local PFCandleCo and KrochetKids, this marketplace is a perfect one-stop shop for people looking to spend their money intentionally.
It is important to be mindful of the companies we support. The way we spend our dollars is a vote towards the future we want to see. Our consumption will shape the way industries proceed in the future. And while it would be wrong to place all the weight on our shoulders (the companies themselves must be willing to put in the work), we are not completely helpless in steering tomorrow.
There is a saying that if you pull someone’s cuticle, the whole body will move.
In the same way, small actions can create larger impact.
Below, a couple of gift pairings to serve as ideas.
2. For the cook, this linen apron and worldly cookbook.
3. For the traveler, a pair of sunnies and a durable backpack.
4. For the one who likes to sit fireside, a whiskey glass and a cocktail mix.
5. For the Type A party-goer who always has to match, this heeled shoe and a leather bag.
6. For the simple one, a pair of wool socks and Krochet Kids beanie.
7. Lastly, for the one who wants a habit change, a portable bamboo utensil kit and a replacementfor cling wrap.
