I have been spending quite a bit of time lately exploring eBay's World of Good. It is a growing shopping mall for green gifts, and specialty items, and really fun to browse.

I recommend that you browse eBay's World of Good to see what they have to offer and bookmark some items for your friends and relatives. It is always good to know that you are contributing to the health and well being of your friends and family.

Here is one of my personal favorites this week:

Alex and Ani St. Christopher Bracelet
I think that I might have to get one of these for myself.

For my friends, this is a great gift:

Getting Frustrated Looking for Green Gifts? originally appeared on Eco-Chic Green Fashion on May 17, 2012.

This book is so much fun, even the cover is interesting:

Eco Books: Inventive Projects from the Recycling Bin

Here are 40 innovative book-making ideas using recycled and green materials! More than just earth-friendly, they’re also beautiful, clever, and witty, stitched with traditional binding techniques. Egg cartons, wood, beer cans, and cassette tapes morph into covers, while brown bags, coffee filters, and discarded newspapers are transformed into pages. Create a boxed set of cereal box books, an exposed stitch sketchbook out of cardboard and remnants, and even a faux leather journal made from teabags.

In addition to how-to drawings, close-up detail photographs, and simple stitch diagrams, a gallery of eco-books from an international roster of artists provides inspiration.

Re-Bound: Creating Handmade Books from Recycled and Repurposed Materials
Re-Bound is a beautiful book on bookbinding with a fun green twist-all the projects use recycled and upcycled materials. This book shows you how to take everyday materials from around the house, flea markets, thrift stores, and hardware stores and turn them into clever and eye-catching hand-made books.

Rejuvenated Jewels: New Designs from Vintage Treasures
In this book, readers learn where to find fabulous vintage jewelry, beads, and artifacts, and how to create stunning one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces using these amazing finds. Rhinestone beads and clasps, mercury glass beads, oxidized metal chains, rosary beads, tiny book charms and more are retooled into fabulous statement pieces that can be worn every day.

Semiprecious Salvage: Creating Found Art Jewelry
Semiprecious Salvage shows readers how to think beyond the techniques taught in traditional beading and jewelry books in order to create found art jewelry. Mixed-media applications like sewing, plasterwork and altering found objects tie together to create jewelry pieces such as brooches, pendants, necklaces, earrings, bracelets and belts. In addition to thought-provoking stories on the origination of some of the found items, Stephanie provides the reader with practical jewelry-making techniques that they can incorporate into their own inspired pieces. A simple, organic approach gives the reader limitless ideas for crafting their own jewelry as well as ideas for locating found items whether it be on a nature walk, one's travels or in the comforts of home.

Each one of these books would be a terrific gift for someone creative on your list.  And there are more similar books.  If you click through the links for each book you will find more books listed underneath each main title on Amazon.

I just bought this gorgeous wolf t-shirt for my daughter, and it is even more beautiful in person than it is in the picture above. The Mountain prints each of these t-shirts to order on a 100% cotton, hand dyed shirt which are screenprinted using environmentally safe, water based inks so they are entirely eco-chic.

Their wolf t-shirts are beautiful, but they make many other t-shirts, most are nature related, but they also have a line of fantasy images which are also just gorgeous. If you like animals or fantasy t-shirts or just love beautiful artwork, take a look by following this link.

In the last year, Zazzle has been offering organic products as part of their regular print-on-demand service. You can print your own designs or designs already on Zazzle on several different organic T-shirts and organic grocery bags like the one pictured above. Zazzle has been quietly increasing their offerings over the past year including some interesting items like skateboards, and photo sculptures which make great custom gifts, and the fun part is that you can create your own designs for one particular person or sell them in the Zazzle marketplace.

Print-On-Demand is another way to save money and waste by only printing enough product to sell, and only exactly what people are looking for. It also saves artists money by allowing them to design without overhead. Zazzle offers high quality printing on all of their products, and I have yet to hear a complaint about their service. I highly recommend that you take a look at Zazzle if you are interested in custom printed items. For more information on Zazzle, follow this link.
