A Greener Wreath to Keep for Years

Despite the holidays too often becoming about reckless consumption than peace, love, and joy, there are still smart consumer choices we can make in selecting gifts and garlands this season. While this beautiful wreath is a fair-trade product, made in India out of a wood frame and felted wool, its sustainability seems to transcend its material, as it has an heirloom quality that would likely inspire you to hang it year after year. Approximately 14" in diameter, the felt wreath has a lovely tactile quality and is an ideal size for your front door, living room wall, or next to the Christmas tree (it's also double-sided, so it can be displayed in a window). Sales of this product, made exclusively for Arcadia Home, help provide income streams for sheepherders and artisans in the Rajasthan State of India. Also available in red, $98 from Branch Home.
