The Napali scarves are made in Nepal and are produced by a fair trade cottage-industry. It’s no wonder they’re a firm favorite with celebrities, as they are simply gorgeous.

Tip: You can coil the scarf inside of a fair trade Easter Basket and plop a fair trade bar of chocolate in the middle.
This beautiful necklace is made my Sonja Picard, an eco-friendly jewelry designer in Vancover. Crafted from sterling silver, you can choose the length of your chain. Om Shanti means: Spiritual peace; the true nature of self, bringing freedom from fear.
I you buy or give one sun hate this year, I suggest The Duchess Hat by The Sun Hat company. It’s reminiscent of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s and is made from eco-friendly palm fiber. It rolls up into your purse or suitcase and springs easily back into shape. A perfect Summer hat. Tip: You can turn it upside down and fill it with chocolates for your friend.
If you’re hoping to turn your mother, sister or BFF onto a non-toxic/greener skin care line, then I highly recommend the One Love

Seedballz Seedballz are a brilliant alternative to an Easter egg, for people who either don’t like or can’t eat chocolate. You simply push them into the soil (in full sun), water, and watch your plants magically grow. You can get herb mixes, flower, wild flowers, sunflowers, basil and much more.
