The Recipe For A Sustainable Christmas
… and it is suddenly December. I wasn’t ready!
* Christmas music on repeat in the background all day *
It is actually Eddie and I’s first Christmas at home since we moved to this apartment almost 5 years ago. We haven’t really decorated home for Christmas because we are usually in Michigan where his whole family is, leaving right after my Nutcracker performances, so I needed everything Christmasy this year! And I might as well create them instead of buying too many plastics, right? So I’ve decided to do our Christmas in a more sustainable way! Like I said in the previous post, holiday season is when we get wasteful (without noticing!), so let’s be conscious about this matter and very merry simultaneously! Today I wanted to share what I’ve learned and done this year. I hope this post helps those who are about to start decorating for Christmas, and want to shift towards sustainability!
That’s about it for my Christmas tree, and now I’m cooking and baking some goodies from the remaining fruit scraps!
I am quite proud of myself for using zero plastic for my Christmas. And hope this inspired you to do the same! We don’t need handful of people doing zero waste perfectly, we need millions of people doing it imperfectly!
