Time together
When was the last time you spent a whole day alone with your best friend? It must have been ages ago. With all the stress, there's often only time for a quick coffee, if at all.
Most of the time it must also be a Phone call do.📞
Much better than pointless dust collectors is to spend time together. How about a concert or a wellness day at the spa? Let yourselves really enjoy yourselves and not disturb anyone else.
Or should it be a joint Movie night be?📺
Meaningful gifts like these just want to be wrapped nicely and are waiting for you to come up with something nice. My tip: Take a look at Pinterest um. Search for "gift wrapping" and you'll come across countless options.
You can combine a wellness voucher with a squeaky duck. A shopping trip with an empty bag that wants to be filled. A TV evening with a bottle of Wine, a pack of microwaves Popcorn and something to snack on.🍿
You can also spend time together on a girls' night out. Ideas for a great women's night out you can find here.
For everyday life homemade
No, I don't mean a card with macaroni. Pay attention to what the one you want to give a gift to keeps mentioning. Does she often have chapped lips? How about a homemade lip balm? Click here to go to the post: "Make your own lip balm: Instructions and recipe"
Does she like to cook? Then a DIY herbal salt fits great. Or how about a homemade tea?

Here you will find many great recipes to make yourself for a great cooking evening with your BFF. Try each other out. Spoil each other with the different recipes from We Go Wild!
For the office
We all drink far too little. I'm sure your girlfriend feels the same way. If she has an office job, you can get her a Glass bottle buy and decorate them beautifully. A few nice words beautify determines the daily work routine.
If you are creative, you can really let off steam here. Buy a few pens with which you can paint on glass and porcelain. How about a funny saying or her Favorite motif?
You can decorate the bottle or the cup with a few Sweets fill and wrap with foil. In the cup also fits a Tea blend or a special coffee blend from the roastery next door. Perhaps the person to be given a gift also raves about a drink entirely especially. Just listen carefully, I'm sure you can figure something out.
But maybe you are not so creatively inclined... then the thermo mug from Schmalz is ideal as a gift! Made from sustainable wood the cup ensures that the drinks stay why in winter and cool in summer.
In addition, you can attach an engraving here. So either the name of the person to be gifted or perhaps "Favorite Person, „little sister" or "best friend".🥰
Create a personal photo book
If you want to give sustainable Christmas gifts, create a photo book with shared Pictures and get a History come to mind.
You've been through a lot together. How about looking back together at old Memories revels? Write beautiful sayings to it, which come from the heart or something you with the Experience connect. If you're creative, you can also invent funny dialogues to go with the pictures.
Give the book as a gift and tell the person to set aside at least 2 hours. Add some cookies, a bottle of wine and you will have a wonderful time together.🖼️
You are guaranteed to have a lot of laughs and maybe even one or the other Tear shed
I can give you the Recommend photo book from Fotosystem, where I also created one just recently.
Here you can create a photo book!
For garden lovers
Your girlfriend loves to garden? Then outdoor Christmas gifts are ideal. How about seeds, a fun Watering can or colorful Rubber boots?
Derbe's sustainable rubber boots in particular look adorable. With a cheerful yellow, your friend will always look like the sunshine of her garden.
Then she certainly always thinks of you when she is pursuing her hobby. Or what do you think of homemade seedbombs?
Those who want to be creative can also Seed bag buy and pack them nicely. Maybe 12 pieces - for 12x joy all year round? In winter sprouts and herbs are good, from spring plants like tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, pumpkins do well. Lettuce seeds always go. And flowers anyway.🌻🫑
It's best to get advice on which Mixtures are best suited for which month. From the bee meadow to your own vegetable garden, there are many ideas.
Just note that it fits the circumstances of the garden fan. Balcony, terrace, garden or windowsill - what are the options for planting?
New learning
Knowledge is forever. There is nothing more sustainable than learning. Whoever learns something new again and again keeps his Spirit young and fit. In addition, you can easily expand your horizons and often it also brings professional more Opportunities.
How about a Language course, a Wild herb hike with an herbalist, a mushroom identification course, violin lessons, a cooking class or a DIY craft course? Opportunities for learning gifts are virtually unlimited.
You can use a Coupon or, if you're really smart about it, you can even book the date for the course. But you have to listen very carefully to the recipient and make sure that he or she has nothing planned for that day.
You can also do the course together, you're sure to find something you both like.
Sponsorships for the heart
We don't really need anything that badly - if we're honest, we don't have any all that is necessary is. Most of it is unnecessary excess. How about your friend giving someone a treat on your behalf?
Sponsorships and donations are great to give as gifts and are very sustainable Christmas gifts. Pay attention to which topics are particularly close to your friend's heart. If it is animals, then sponsorships are offered in Zoos or donations to Animal shelters an.
If it's nature, you can give the gift of a tree sponsorship or support the local Nature Conservancy support. Does your friend have a very pronounced social streak? Then you are with sponsorships around Doctors without Borders or SOS Children's Village Sponsorships right.
Teach her something
Our talents are very different. You can very well Hairstyles do? Every woman is sure to look forward to a few good tips from you.
Instead of giving away a new hair dryer, put your skills to work. Special experience and skills are always in demand.
You can easily create a Coupon tinker for it. What lends itself: Cooking, crafting, gardening, photography, knitting, doing hairstyles, painting nails, etc.
Just ask around a bit with friends and family of your girlfriend. Often, however, she will blab on her own. For example, if she's upset that she can't find her Nails can't manage beautifully by yourself.
Or about that one recipe from We Go Wild that just won't work for her. Then you can dig through the multitude of our recipes together.
A funny cooking apron
Your girlfriend loves to swing the wooden spoon? How about a new apron? You certainly know what she likes and can choose the Paint apron yourself. How about a saying or a sweet Motive?
The Zollner cooking apron is ideal for this. Climate neutral not only is it sustainable, but the gray color is also ideal as a base on which to create something. paint or to embroider
With a small food basket of ingredients from the local farmer's market, this gift makes a great gift. At the same time it does not cost much and has a very personal touch.
Help in everyday life
If you don't have your own car, you'll be happy to borrow your car with a voucher. Or are you by chance a garden owner and your girlfriend is not? Then you can give her a small bed.
Or does she have a garden but hardly any time? You can offer yourself as a weeder or lawn mower. Or how about being a cat or dog sitter when she goes on vacation?🐈🧳
Babysitters or shopping helpers are also always well received. Pay attention to what always makes your girlfriend despair and try to find a solution for it.
Trade instead of buy
How about a little Christmas party with your friends? Here you can make presents together. Everyone brings an object to the party that they no longer need. In this way, things that you no longer use yourself find a new meaning. Important: You may not buy anything new, but only bring existing items into the game.
Of course, it's important to set a framework and come up with a theme. Otherwise, one person will go home with a nice sweater and the other with a ballpoint pen.🥰😂
For all those who pay attention to healthy food
A sustainable Christmas gift is also a small ground where she can grow her own food - provided the person is interested.
She likes to eat fresh herbs and fresh vegetables but has no space in the apartment? How about giving her a year's rent for a bed with seeds? She's sure to make eyes at that.
This can be packaged very cute with a gift certificate in a box that you fill with vegetables, seeds or moss. Add a small shovel and for fun a little soil in a bag. Ready is your meaningful Christmas gift.
A personal cookbook
You like to cook and have beautiful photos of the dishes? Then make your girlfriend a little Cookbook. Here applies: better few dishes, but these really suitable for everyday use and according to the Taste of your girlfriend.
Has she raved about your casserole recently? Or does she often talk about her mom's pumpkin soup? Then grab all of these recipes. You certainly can't go wrong with 1-2 chocolatey desserts, either.
Perhaps she would also enjoy a few We Go Wild Recipes look forward?👀
Very noble but elaborate are cookbooks that are written by hand. The photo simply stick in and around a few Messages and attach self-drawn.
But if you're not the creative type, we can recommend Diana Henry's cookbook. Inside, your BFF can cook great and sustainable recipes.
Give beautiful words
Let's be honest: When was the last time you read a handwritten Letter written? You don't remember? Then it's time!💌
Gifts do not always have to be material. Sometimes the best idea for non-material gifts are simply the appropriate Words at the right time.
Are you grateful to your girlfriend that she always Time has for you or you already so much Experienced have? Then put it in writing.
In everyday life, that often comes up short. We don't know what we have in each other. Often it is seen as of course felt. With a nice letter, you can tell your girlfriend how nice it is to have her in your life. It's also best to give her a box of tissues. One or the other Tear could roll.
If you have a lot of great photos, you can add them to the letter.
Fixed date for walks
Costs nothing and makes a lot of sense: a fixed appointment in the week for a common Walk. You don't necessarily have to go out for a drink, exercise in the fresh air never hurts.
Once you have found an appointment, try to find your Ritual to pull through. Even in winter - because it is precisely here that our body needs a lot of air to keep its Defenses strengthen.
Sporty friends can go to the Running date. You could give her a calendar for the new year, in which you have already entered every walk.
Bake cookies or a cake
Homemade Cookies or a delicious cake always go down well. Nice Christmas decorations with stars are a real eye-catcher.
Those who wish can also take a make sweet baking mix in a jar. You can then bake these together on another day.
A personal tour of the city
Your girlfriend doesn't live just around the corner? Then give her a personal City tour. Stroll, drink coffee and on the side with a few meaningful Info shine over your city - that's the goal of this Christmas idea.
Often times, however, you live in a place for years and actually know hardly anything. Here, too, your private tour offers itself. This costs little, gives you time together and one or two pieces of information are also left behind.
A colorful bread box
Chocolates? Chocolate? That's not exactly conducive to good health. How about a nice bread box for work instead? That gets your girlfriend to eat more often healthy to eat.
Or a beautiful and self-decorated glass for salads in a jar? Let you times with Pinterest inspire. You're sure to find an idea for this sustainable Christmas idea here.
Recycled
Wallets, bracelets, belts, bicycles, necklaces - why not make them from recycled materials? There are many companies that have set themselves the goal of making something new out of something used.
But you can also recycle yourself. Grab a nice shaped branch. You can attach pictures, shells and anything else you want to it and let it hang from the ceiling.
If you're not a profile at the DIY area, you can also give classic jewelry with a twist... namely, there are jewelry pieces made from recycled material. About this sustainable Christmas gift your girlfriend will be happy for sure.
The bracelet from Paul Hewitt is made of recycled material!
For cold feet
In winter, but absolutely everyone has cold feet. Cozy and home-knitted wool socks are the solution for this!

A large jar of homemade jam
It smells and it tastes like summer. You can sweeten even the most miserable day with it. We are talking about homemade jam or syrup. Or how about a batch of applesauce?

Muesli, baking mix and co
Grab a nice jar and fill it with all the dry ingredients. Your friend then only needs to add the liquids and her cake or cereal is ready. 😁
A delicious crunchy muesli without sugar you can easily make yourself. This is anything but complicated and tastes heavenly.
Beautiful fabric bag for shopping
Plastic bags are bad for the environment, permanently expensive and then just lie around pointlessly in the apartment. Give your girlfriend an original fabric bag.
Paint it yourself or provide it with a Saying, that suits you. You know best what your girlfriend really like. If you are very talented, you can even sew the bag yourself. From Jute bag until the Gym bag anything is possible.

Our conclusion
