Cool Gifts For A Hot Planet Fancifull Baskets Designs Green Gifts With Taste
Overflowing landfills, 15 million barrels of petroleum a year going to make the plastic bottles used for water alone, enough is enough. Fancifull Baskets of Hollywood offers green gift solutions that cut down on waste, encourage recycling, use sustainable products, and taste good.
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) April 3, 2008
Want to send a gift that is socially responsible, will be well received, and can start a trend that is good for this planet? If so, you will be interested in the line of Green Gifts designed by Fancifull Baskets of Hollywood. Fancifull has always pushed organic and all natural products. But now they have kicked that up a notch with a whole line of Green Gifts that incorporate shopping totes to cut down on plastic bag usage; stainless steel water bottles, to cut down on the oil use and toxins associated with plastic bottles; bamboo trays, and a host of reusable, recyclable and sustainable products.
"After reading what effect the plastic store bags and the water bottles have on our environment I knew I needed to encourage others to change their habits," explains Terry August, owner of Fancifull. "Research shows that 15 million barrels of oil are used annually to manufacture the plastic water bottles used in America alone." August hopes these gifts have a ripple effect . Since Fancifull caters to a corporate clientele that often sends out hundreds of green gifts, she may be on to something. Her philosophy is: give a tote, then others will use totes, others will give totes and the world will eliminate a lot of the bags clogging our landfills and the petroleum used in manufacture. "It began when my daughter gave me a tote and a steel water bottle," she says. "I loved using them, and then I began to find fun totes to give friends. It escalated. Now I would never go back to using grocery bags." Envirosax are her favorite right now because they roll up to fit into the palm of your hand so can easily fit in a purse or a glove compartment. Throw one in your suitcase for your next vacation to carry home those souvenirs.
The totes, however, are only one facet of Fancifull's Green Gifts.
The Office Oasis arrives on a bamboo tray with a live plant and organic gourmet treats, Pure Relaxation pampers one with organic essential oils, and the Organic Baby includes organic baby clothing, blanket and bath products. There are other selections on the Fancifull website, www.fancifull.com">www.fancifull.com with more coming all the time. August posts articles on her green products and how easy it can be going green. "If enough of us do little things daily," she says, "they become big things and change does occur."
