Eco Friendly Gifts under £50
Natural Decorating and Eco-Renovation Books*

These books have been recommended to us by customers. They have found them invaluable one way or another during their natural or eco building project. Although some of them are small, they are jam packed with useful information.
The Children's picture book 'Old Knobbley' is simply a stunning book with beautiful illustrations with imagined portraits of Old Knobbley through the centuries. The 54 pahe full colour paperback book follows Old Knobbley's life from acorn to an 800 year old oak tree.

Eco Friendly Gifts over £50
Wood Stove Fans*
Price Range: £57.50 to £140
Wood Stove fans for the top of wood burning stoves are a great addition to any home with an enclosed fire.
Ecofans are simply great at circulating heat from the woodburner across and around the room. If find you need to sit close to the fire to keep warm an ecofan is a great energy efficient solution. It helps you feel warm in the room with less fuel.
Our best selling ecofan within is the Ecofan 812 at £110.00. A choice of blade colours (Black, Gold or Nickel) ensures it will compliment any room.
We are super excited about the Ecofan 815 a mini wood stove fan at £57.50. It is the smallest wood burner fan in the range. It is just soooo cute.

Organic Cotton Hammocks*
Price Range: £60 to £225
The beautiful handmade organic cotton hammocks from la Siesta can be used indoors or outdoors.
We love these hammocks, not just because the are made from organic cotton (so kinder to the environment) but also because of their high-quality workmanship, unique comfort and durability.
There are many different styles available, from single to kingsize hammocks, to hammock chairs like the Modesta Hammock Chair featured (£75). You can purchase them with or without stands or suspension cords.
Baavet Wool Duvets

Stocking Fillers
Who Gives A Crap Toilet Roll*

A fun little stocking filler that doesn't need wrapping!

*Vegan Gifts
All of the eco-friendly gifts marked with an asterisk * are vegan (except the Conscious Skincare Mini Festival Kit as the shampoo contains honeyquat).
We also have a range of vegan paints (I know doesn't sound too exciting, but wait for it ...) within that range is Eco-Chic Furniture Paint. The furniture paint, when combined with the furniture glaze, crackle glaze and smaller 100ml claypaint tester tins) could make the perfect gift for your creative vegan friends.
