5 Sustainable Ways to Celebrate Mother’s Day this Year
Being more considerate about our environment isn't necessarily the first thing we think of when we buy gifts for our loved ones, and choosing something sustainable that will be well received isn’t always easy either.
The great news, buying ethically and sustainably sourced gifts that are good for our planet is becoming easier and at Made with Respect, we’ve bought together brands from around the world under the same roof so you don’t have to go searching for them.
With Mother's Day right around the corner it's the perfect time to think about what to get her that she’ll not only love but is also great for our Planet. Help mum reduce her carbon footprint with these fun, ethically and environmentally friendly gifts.
1. Cook a meal together
Buy mum beautiful kitchenwear made from 100% GOTs certified organic cotton from The Organic Company and make a date to spend quality time together experimenting with a new recipe over a glass of wine. Your mum will not only love her gift, she’ll love spending quality time with you whilst you can feel good about supporting a company whose core values are protecting the environment and being socially and ethically responsible.
2. Attend a yoga class together
Take a moment of consciousness and connectivity with your mum and enjoy a yoga session together. Buy sustainable activewear from Wolven and nurture not only her mind, body and soul but also our Planet. Wolven's collection is made from recycled plastic water bottles, they have diverted over 400K from landfills and the ocean.
3. Give mum a home pamper session
Nothing beats a pamper session to soothe and heal the skin while calming the mind and body, your mum will be grateful to you for giving her a reason to take a long soak in a warm aromatic bath with Koko Body, uplifting her spirit whilst reducing the feelings of stress and anxiety.
4. Spend a day at the beach together
Pack a picnic lunch and take your mum to a beautiful beach for the day. Give her a gorgeous eco and ethical swimsuit by AURAI Swimwear or a sustainably made wetsuit by Gemma Lee Suits, designed from eco-conscious materials into beautiful environmentally friendly swimwear.
5. Show you care with silk
Spoil mum with beautifully designed silk sleepwear made from Sleepy Wilson. Made from the highest grade silk, a renewable, biodegradable source that is also naturally temperature regulating, breathable, hypo allergenic and antibacterial, Mum can rest easy knowing her sleepwear has been made to promote a better night sleep and protect the environment.
