5 Sustainable Ways to Get Ready for Thanksgiving

 

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and now more than ever, we could all use something to look forward to. With some help from our favorite sustainable brands, here are some quick tips to help get your home feeling cozy, festive, and sustainable for the upcoming holiday season. 

1. Use seasonal scents 

Burn fall-inspired candles to make your home feel cozy and warm. We love the Cedar & Suede scented candle from Public Goods, which is made of hand-poured soy wax and free of lead, dyes, BPA, and phthalates.

2. Prep the guest rooms

Give your guests the best sleep of their life with soft and sustainable bedding. We highly recommend Avocado Mattress for all things organic and non-toxic from their mattresses to their pillows to their sheets.

3. Have a plan for leftover food 

Don't contribute to food waste in our landfills by throwing away your leftovers! Instead, use a compost bin from Full Circle Home to collect food scraps, donate un-opened canned goods to a local food bank, or re-invent leftovers into new recipes.

4. Be kind to yourself and others 

The holidays can be stressful, especially now more than ever. It's important to surround yourself and your family with ways to relax and recharge. We love Dirt Don't Hurt's plant-based charcoal face mask to help detox and release some stress.

5. Do laundry 

At first laundry may not sound as the most festive way to get ready for Thanksgiving, but we're changing that with our Limited Edition Fall Fabric Softener Pods. Invite the warm fragrance of Crisp Fall Air into your home when you add this scent boosting pod to your wash loads.
