3 Ways to Embrace Reusable Items for Festive Period

Festive periods are important as we love to spend time with our loved ones and we love to make it memorable.

While we enjoy the season, we should embrace reusable items over single use as we mostly have the idea of purchasing NEW items for the season.

Let’s pause and check our approach if it’s beneficial to the environment.

Reasons to embrace reusable items for festive periods

1️⃣ Avoid single-use plastic items. Choose glass, silverware, and ceramics that could be reused over time. 

It saves the costs of purchasing new items and reduces the waste generated. 

2️⃣ Attempt to repackage your old gifts in good condition and offer them to friends/family instead of disposing of them which ends in landfills contributing to environmental menace.

3️⃣ Purchase second-hand clothing or redesign your old clothing; for instance, old clothes to Adire (tie and dye) as it’s economical and environmentally reliable.

Let’s keep the most wonderful periods of the year – festive periods, and discourage them from becoming the most wasteful times of the year.
