A great gift idea for a friend, relative, loved one, or even someone that you barely know but need a gift for is a green starter kit. Green starter kits can be purchased, however, a homemade green starter kit has a whole lot of meaning put into it. A green starter kit is a kit that includes a lot of eco-friendly trinkets, such as CFL light bulbs, eco-friendly cleaning products, eco-friendly makeup, reusable bags, organic items, etc.

A great way to put together your own green starter kit is to get a basket, any size will do, so use your imagination. The basket can be filled with just about anything as long as it is eco-friendly, and it doesn’t matter how much an item cost so don’t feel like you have to get the most expensive item that you can find. Some nice choices to fill your green starter kit basket with are eco-friendly cleaning products, eco-friendly household products, natural pet items (like toys, food, etc.), all natural lip balms, eco-friendly personal care products, etc.

If you are interested in purchasing a pre-made green starter kit instead then have a look at the following items:
