Helping the Fair Trade economy as well as Mother Earth just got a little easier. As much as we like to recycle, reuse and DIY, sometimes we just have to dip into our pile of green in order to dig up something fresh — especially when it comes to gift-giving. With graduations, weddings and father’s day around the corner, we’re shining the spotlight on an e-tailer that’s easy on the planet, and easy on the wallet: earthlovershopping.com.



The site is easy to navigate — you can shop by product category (green teen, eco baby, men, women, etc) or whether a product is: handmade, recycled, organic, natural or renewable. And Alternative Consumers receive 10 percent off by using EarthLoverAC code at checkout. Here are just a few of my personal favs:
Vinylux Album Covered Sketchbooks – 65 pages (100% recycled, chlorine-free paper), available in 2 sizes, ($14)
MegaTote handmade from recycled Cambodian Rice Bags in red & white or green & yellow, ($21)
Frugi Organic Cotton Happy Hat – too cute, in Moonbeam, Dusky Pink or Blue, ($11.50)
