Vegan Valentine’s Gifts

Vegan Valentine’s Gifts

Don’t buy cards, unless you must.   Write your Soul-mate a love letter on the first two pages of a new journal, and let him/ her use it the rest of the year to sketch, doodle, write lists, poetry, songs, whatever.. but always know how loved s/he is.   So – it’s like a gift and a card all-in-one!

A basic marbled notebook (with a decorated cover) would do just fine for a few bucks, or splurge on this handmade journal made from Nepalese lokta and mulberry papers that has recycled paper inside, comes wrapped in a resealable biodegradable sleeve (which is made from plants,) and has eco-licious black coconut shells and hemp that adorn the spine (this eco-handmade company donates a percentage of its profits to animal-welfare groups.)
