March 8, of course, is not the only day of the year when women are pleased to receive attention, but it is the most massive. Marketers of companies, manufacturers and sellers are preparing for this day in advance, trying to attract more and more raisins in order to please the beautiful half of humanity and, of course, get material benefits. But will a gift really bring joy if it threatens the existence of a person on Earth, causing harm to the environment?
We offer you a short list of surprises for your beloved women that will bring benefits and positive emotions:
- flower in a pot. Cut flowers are grown with a huge amount of pesticides, and in most cases they are brought from abroad, which led to their long transportation. Fresh flowers will please longer, saturate the air in the room with oxygen and help relieve stress;
- a hand-made paper bouquet (you can put healthy sweets into the buds!);
- organic cosmetics - a gift that any woman will be happy with;
- certificate for the passage of a SPA or other wellness procedure;
- flask / water bottle - eliminates the need to buy disposable plastic bottles and allows you to always take the necessary water with you;
- reusable thermos mug for tea / coffee instead of plastic and paper cups;
- sports equipment for fitness / gymnastics (but it is better if they are mechanical rather than electrical simulators );
- emotions as a gift (dinner at a restaurant, master classes, going to the movies, skydiving, hot air ballooning and much more);
- stylish eco-bag for shopping and just for daily use;
- eBook;
- aromatherapy kit;
- jewelry made from natural materials (wood, clay, fabric, etc.);
- natural wax candles (which you can make yourself);
- needlework kits, etc.
Try to avoid extra gift wrapping, and if you use it, use recycled materials or fabric.
And remember: it is not a gift that makes a pleasant day, but attention and care! Love your women and surprise as often as possible!
