Perfect Gifts for Vegan and Plantbased
1. Apron
A simple and perfect gift for your vegan friend because she is always busy working in the kitchen, it’s cute, funny, simple, and practical. She will definitely be more inspired in cooking recipes in the kitchen with this apron.
2. Reusable Grocery Bag
We all know the impact of using plastic, especially when doing our grocery shopping and how we are being charged if we didn’t bring any of our own. This reusable grocery bag fits perfectly in a bag when not in use for convenience.
3. Eco Friendly: Zero Waste Kit (Starter Box)
This zero-waste kit is 100% vegan and a great gift for anyone you know who is working being vegan and minimalist. It’s very practical and useful especially when traveling and even when eating outside it is best to use your own utensils.
4. Vegan Snacks
A perfect grab and go snack when gifting snacks make sure to read the labels and claims of allergens. This is definitely a practical gift for your vegan friend and always handy. There are just days when eating outside becomes very limited when it comes to the menus.
5. Bento Box
Bringing fruits or snacks everywhere, this minimalist Bento box is perfect on the go to bring at work, trips, or flights. This bento box is microwave, dishwasher, and freezer – BPA free. If you are like me that brings own snacks especially on long flights or food at work this is a very useful gift.
6. Reusable Water Bottle
This is my favorite very practical gift idea for everyone, especially an insulated water bottle where you can fill with your hot Turmeric drink, Pumpkin Spice, and warm or cold water. Most water bottles now are BPA free and have some collapsible cups too which is a perfect fit in the bag when not in use.
7. Reusable storage boxes
A durable, BPA free reusable food storage that has an easy lock. This will work for everyone who wants to minimize the use of plastic perfect storage for sandwiches, snacks, and fruits.
8. Cruelty Free Make Ups
Every woman loves a good makeup and now more women are opting for cruelty-free makeup there are brands like Catrice and Essence that are cruelty-free and vegan. There’s just something about using cruelty-free makeup.
9. Bath Bombs
This Vegan bath bomb is a perfect gift whatever the occasion is, definitely a great use for a relaxing time in the shower. It is also skin-friendly and helps moisturize skin.
10. Pacifica French Lilac Spray Perfume
Aside from makeup, a cruelty-free and vegan perfume is a perfect gift too. If your friend is not into makeup why not try giving a perfume instead.
11. Recipe CookBook
A plantbased recipe book full of great recipes and a book all about desserts for your transitioning friend is definitely a must as part of perfect gifts for vegan and plantbased. There will be days where you think you are running out of ideas to cook this will help in meal preparations.
12. Air Fryer
An important appliance in the kitchen for someone who wants to avoid using oil when cooking whether for personal use or for your vegan and plantbased friend this is absolutely an ideal gift.
13. Instant Pot
The best gift for every busy person and not only for Vegans and plantbased people. There are a lot of recipes that you can make with an instant pot.
14. Smoothie Blender
A very handy portable blender that can be brought anywhere especially on short trips. Making a smoothie is now very easy your vegan or plantbased friend will definitely be delighted.
So why I prefer a blender over a juicer, is because most fruits have high sugar content being produce because of the juicing process and sometimes unlike blender the fiber is being retained which is also necessary.
15. Herb Seeds Starter Kit
If you want your friend to start her own indoor mini herb garden then this is the perfect practical gift for her. It is very useful and economical to have her own set of fresh herbs.
16.Vegan Shirts
A cute and powerful statement shirt for your Vegan or Plantbased friend simple yet having some strong awareness words. I also started designing my own minimalist plantbased merchandise.
17. Vegan Leather Bag
Everyone loves a good well-made leather product because it’s long-lasting however vegans and plantbased prefer not to use. Vegans and plantbased will definitely love a minimalist vegan leather handbag. After having my own piece you can never tell the difference. If you want to splurge a little more try Matt and Nat designs.
18. Vegan Leather Shoes
Just like how a vegan leather bag can be long-lasting paired it with a vegan chelsea boots that is perfect for the upcoming weather. I have been eyeing for these shoes too.
19. Vegan Everyday Shoes
Most shoe brands are now releasing options of Vegan shoes for individuals who prefer to wear this kind of shoes. Another brand have also released their own collection of vegan lifestyle shoes.
20. Faux Leather Jacket
Perfect for the fall and winter weather and for layering this faux leather jacket is very stylish and you really cant tell the difference.
I hope you find these practical and perfect gifts for vegan and plantbased useful and helpful in planning for gift ideas to give or use for yourself. But with gift or without gift it is important to understand and support anyone you know who chooses to improve their lifestyle.
