Moondust’s 2022 Budget and Environment Friendly Gift Ideas to Delight
Our holiday greetings now come in so many versions and languages. The reasons to celebrate in this season have grown alongside the many ways we can show our appreciation. Team Moondust pooled their favourite free or low cost and environmentally friendly ideas to gift the people in our community with love and attention.
In past holiday seasons, Moondust Cosmetics® has naturally noted the gift of suncare for holiday travelers or those enjoying hometown holiday fun outdoors to share the gifts of Skin Protector Plus (SPP). Yet, the Moondust team is ever aware of the wide world of wonder and gifts brimming with imagination and care that comes best from being attentive to others around us and what we ourselves have to share with others.
So, let’s share some starter ideas for low or no cost quality gifts this season
Practical gifts of service
Have you got unique skills stemming from your job or hobbies? Gift a service needed or wanted by your recipient:
- Gifts of time off as you provide childcare, pet care
- Pampering massage, spa, pedicure, manicure treatments if you can do it
- A break from the kitchen with baking or cooking meals for the freezer
- Detailing a car, cleaning a house or doing yardwork
- Snapping some photos for assignments, dating profiles or websites!
Or, just go straight to the head of the class and teach a skill you have in crafts, hobbies, kitchen skills or more…
Fun and yum of gifts of food
Always useful and appreciated and never the wrong size, colour or storage issue!
Family food recipes that are treasured or just timely made from ingredients right in your pantry or regular market run! Think…
- Jars of preserves, sauces, spice rubs or homemade granola
- Holiday baking treats to serve with their company
- A book made by you of special recipes
- Dried fruits or herbs or mixed nuts you prepare yourself
Gifts of memory
- Write down some wonderful moments with them
- Assemble a modern music mix tape/recording
- Create a video tribute
- Send a message to the future with a time capsule – box up memory pieces from tickets to trinkets, photos of fun and more
Grow some green loving
A plant for beauty and air purifying, or flowers or herbs always make a lovely gift. Just remember to start early on that gift of growth and get your bulbs or seeds started if it’s going to be a ground up, handmade project!
Visit or Volunteer at the Holidays
- Set a standing date to relate – commit to times with the people you love for tea or chat and more
- Take in the holiday lights – tour light displays of homes, holiday markets and festive parks together
- Plan to visit a neighbor or friend, or shut in. Bring flowers, or that home baking or a pretty card to leave behind for the season. Or perhaps, brighten the days of someone struggling at the season or with grief for example at the loss of a loved one.
- Add to a community drive to meet needs for meals, gloves, socks and other items for the homeless or lower income people who might be struggling even under their own roofs.
- Bring cast off linens or blankets to comfort animals in shelters. Perhaps take a local shelter dog for a walk or cuddle a kitten.
Do pay special attention to seniors who may be alone for the holidays and stop to talk to them and help them.
Compassion costs very little to show, be it a community member, a new family addition as a pet, or guests who come for the holidays as a shelter from the street or a solitary holiday season.
Moondust Cosmetics® wishes you an abundance of joy, health and happiness over the holidays and into the New Year ahead. Remember others near you fondly/warmly and those far away with love and support where you can
