GIVEAWAY: The Cardboard Tree

16 Nov

posted by amy purple |

Have you been reading our Holiday ideas on Mondays? If you have, this cardboard tree should look really familar! The kind folks at the The Cardboard Tree have donated one for us to giveaway to one lucky winner! I bought one of these trees for our home this holiday season not only because of it’s three feet size that packs itself flat (which is perfect for any storage concerns), but also because of it being very eco-friendly! This adorable tree is made out of recycled cardboard. When the tree is on its last limb, it is also recycleable! Another kind gesture is that a portion of the profits from the sale of The Cardboard Tree are donated to the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree For America program which replants trees through their reforestation program.

I imagine this eco-friendly cardboard tree easily becoming a great holiday tradition in your family. Everyone could think of different ways to decorate the tree each year. Even kids would be able to enjoy using crayons, decorations and glitter to make this tree sparkle and transform into a beauty! The cardboard tree comes with some adorable cardboard ornaments that you can use or hang those ornaments you have cherished over the years on it too. Visit their website to find some decorating ideas and order it online for your home this season. It would also work great in the workplace, amuse the kids an afternoon at their daycare or a great way to bring holiday cheer to their grandparent’s home! Or as a reader suggested, perhaps send it to someone who is stationed overseas!

We have two giveaways this week, we hope you’ll enter the other one as well!

We are using recycled wrapping paper this year. One feature that I like is a portion of the profits are donated to the Trees for America program.

I love that a portion of the proceeds for these trees go straight to the Trees For America Program! Natural cleansers like vinegar and baking soda do a great job without harming the planet. I use reusable grocery bags, recycle and compost and try to conserve gas by driving much less. I am now working on doing my part to help the environment by bringing my own bags when I shop. This year we are cutting down on the “stocking stuffer” gifts and buying one or two really nice gifts for each person. It saves time, money, gasoline, and less paper for wrapping. Thank you for the opportunity to win!
HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE !!!
