Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who is passionate about interior design and sustainable materials, there are several meaningful and personal gift ideas that you can consider for Christmas. These gifts will not only align with his interests but also contribute towards his passion and journey in sustainable interior design.

1. Sustainable Home Decor: Help your son enhance his interior design skills with sustainable home decor items. Look for eco-friendly and ethically made items such as recycled glass vases, reclaimed wood photo frames, or handcrafted sustainable candles. These items will not only add a touch of elegance to his designs but also promote sustainability.

2. Sustainable Interior Design Books: A great gift for someone interested in interior design is a collection of books on sustainable interior design. Look for titles that focus on eco-friendly design principles, using natural materials, and incorporating sustainable practices into interior spaces. This gift will provide him with inspiration and knowledge to further develop his design skills and techniques.

3. Green Certifications and Memberships: Consider gifting your son a membership or certification to an organization that promotes sustainable interior design. This could include a membership to a green building council or enrollment in a sustainable design course. Such opportunities will provide him with additional resources, information, and networking opportunities to expand his knowledge in sustainable design.

4. Sustainable Materials Sampling Kit: Help your son explore and experiment with different sustainable materials by gifting him a sustainable materials sampling kit. This could include samples of recycled materials, reclaimed wood, organic fabrics, and sustainable flooring options. These samples will allow him to have a hands-on experience with different materials and discover unique combinations for his design projects.

5. Sustainable Design Tools: Consider upgrading your son's interior design toolkit with sustainable and eco-friendly options. Look for eco-friendly paintbrushes made from recycled materials, sustainable flooring design software, or low VOC (volatile organic compounds) paint sets. These tools will reinforce his commitment to sustainable practices while allowing him to pursue his passion for interior design.

6. Sustainable Design Consultation: Arrange for a consultation with a professional sustainable interior designer. This would provide your son with an opportunity to learn from an expert and gain valuable insights into incorporating sustainable materials and practices into his designs. It could be a one-time session or a series of consultations that can be done in person or online.

Remember, the key to a meaningful and personal gift is to understand and support your loved one's interests and passions. By providing your son with gifts that align with his love for interior design and sustainable materials, you are not only acknowledging his passion but also encouraging him to pursue it further.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
