Top 5 Unusual Gifts
1) Hummingbird Swing
A hummingbird swing gives the tiny birds a perfectly-sized place to perch. Hang it close to a feeder or nectar-rich flowering plant—and in a good viewing spot—to enjoy watching these beautiful birds in action.
2) Sustainable Kitchen Cleaning Set
This sustainable kitchen cleaning set makes it easy to sidestep plastic in your home. The pot brush, dish brush, and bottle brush are all made with sustainably-grown bamboo handles and durable sisal bristles for strong scrubbing without any glue or adhesives. And an all-natural kitchen sponge is fully compostable when it’s done with dish duty.
