If you are planning a graduation party for your special high
school or college graduate; make environmentally friendly choices in your
preparations.
Eco-friendly
invitations…
Send e-cards, Facebook messages or text messages to get the
word out. Of course, close relatives
should receive a formal announcement with the graduate’s picture.
Setting
the stage green-style…
Repurpose containers you already have in the home to use as
centerpieces, or visit a local thrift shop for centerpiece ideas! If you love confetti—get it in biodegradable
form. Avoid vinyl or plastic tablecloths instead, cover tables in cloth
tablecloths.
Green
your tableware…
Plastic silverware, plates an cups are so NOT
biodegradable!! They take up space in
landfills for centuries and off-gas toxins into the environment. Please
consider these options instead:
--Rent all tableware from a local rental company.
--Purchase compostable tableware @ Eco Party Time
Anyone
hungry? What to serve…
Whether you are doing simple finger foods/snacks or planning a
meal, look for organic and or local produce.
When purchasing locally grown foods you are reducing carbon footprints
& benefiting your local economy!
If you definitely do not want to spend your time preparing the
food, have it catered by a local business that uses locally grown and or
organic foods.
What’s a
Graduation Party without the presents?
Avoid purchasing a gift just for a gift’s sake. Make sure it is a necessary purchase that
will be useful for the graduate. You
know that none of us needs “more stuff”.
So be sure it’s a gift that counts!
You have probably heard of the expression, “Cash is King”. Well, it is always a good gift to give, but
if you want to put a little more effort into the gift, consider a gift basket
with Brightly Green All Natural Laundry Care products! Brightly Green All Natural Products are 100% biodegradable, sustainable and non-toxic. Can't get greener than that! If you know the graduate plans to have his/her
own pad; then a variety of Brightly Green All Natural Cleaning Products would
be perfect. Brightly Green All Natural
Cleaners also has gift cards available!
wish all
2014 Graduates success in their future endeavors!
