Every Christmas, I try to creatively mask my lack of creativity with presents for my friends. One year in high school, I made these snowman ornaments out of off-white felt that I had learned how to do in fifth grade. A few years later, I made my Naps Shirts and gave them to my friends. Two years ago, I gave my friends each a copy of Getting Things Done by David Allen as an attempt to convert them, but I’m sure none of them have read a word in the book, let alone a sentence.
As I, along with the rest of the world, become more environmentally aware, I’m starting to feel overwhelmed by the volume of “stuff” that we make, buy, and dispose of every year, especially during the holiday season.
In my daily life, I try to be conscious of my purchases and look for more sustainable options before considering more popular or more “bang for the buck” ones.
