The Eden Project:

Most of you have probably already heard of the Eden Project
in Cornwall
with its fantastic gardens and eco-friendly activities. I had too but until
recently I didn’t realise they sold clothing and accessories along with their
plants and food hampers so when I found out I decided to take a look. Most of
the clothing bears the Eden Project logo and is just basic t-shirts and jumpers
which are nice but very everyday casual. However, the accessories and bags are
really lovely and available in bright colourful patterns which I love.
Bags:

The bag above is made from all natural materials such as
hand-loomed cotton, coconut shells, wood and jute. It is coloured with
environmentally friendly dyes and is such a perfect size for any occasion that
I thought you’d like it. Alternatively there is the cool spotty range (below) of bags
which I also really like the look of.

Jewellery:
They also sell bracelets and the charm bracelets in
particular caught my eye. They are handmade in Cornwall and the charms are created from
recycled acrylic that would otherwise be taken to landfill. They are really
beautiful and would accessories all types of outfits fabulously.

The accessories and bags the Eden Project sell are gorgeous and ethical so what is not to like? I'd say if you fancy treating yourself they are definitely worth considering or else as some Christmas presents with a conscience you couldn't get better.
People Tree:
Keeping with the accessories theme I came across some
a-m-a-z-ing winter warmers from People Tree this week. Made from 100% wool and
certified by the World Fair Trade Organisation these are just so cool I couldn’t
resist showing you them.
