Green Gifts under $100: Charming name necklace

chartreusephoto

Now that it's December, I'm finally willing to embrace the fact that the holidays are officially here. We all know what that means... Presents!!

My philosophy on gift giving is simple -- the very best presents are the ones that people secretly lust over but would never be able to justify getting themselves. With all the financial uncertainty this year, I'm especially eying eco-friendly luxuries. The holidays are the perfect time for people to pamper themselves! And giving green luxury doesn't have to break the bank.

This week, I'm going to focus on eco treats that can be had for under $100. Don't worry if that's too rich for your blood -- the next few weeks in December will be devoted to little luxuries that cost even less!

This adorable Laura James recycled charm necklace is just the perfect gift for any holiday. The pretty pattern and delicate chain will add a touch of old-world femininity to any outfit, while the personalized engraving makes this a thoughtful and one of a kind gift. Think outside of the box when choosing your engraving -- names and nicknames are charming, but a well chosen adjective might be even more meaningful.

Laura James Recycled Etched Stamped Name Necklace $68. Perfect for inspiring that creative dreamer in your life.
GOOD B/C: Recyced.


p.s. I just remembered that I found Laura James via Lucky, and I have to give a shout out to them for including eco friendly options in their holiday gift guide.
