A natural living gift basket makes the perfect housewarming, wedding or birthday gift for an environmentally conscious friend or family member. With just a little research and planning, making a natural living gift basket is easy.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Gift basket
  • Green living book
  • Cloth grocery bags
  • Mesh produce bags
  • Organic cotton kitchen towels
  • Bamboo cutting board
  • Organic cotton ribbon
  • Scissors
  1. Step 1

    Purchase a natural living book and other natural living products, including organic cotton sheets, earth-friendly cleaning products or other items the recipient might enjoy. Gather the items and gift basket supplies on a table.

  2. Step 2

    Place the bamboo cutting board at the back of the basket.

    Fold the organic cotton grocery bags and place them at the back of the basket, but in front of the cutting board, making sure not to cover the entire board.
