We live in a world, where technology takes precedence over nature. With the shocking revelation of the fact that 99.999 percent of people all over the globe breathe unhealthy/polluted air (1), the decrease of global groundwater level at an alarming rate (2), and the news of soil pollution is a threat to 40% of the total population of the earth (3) are sending shivers down the spine.  

People all over the planet have admitted that it’s high time to pause and slow down the growing level of pollution. There’s no better time than this to consider our connection to the Earth. As Earth Day is approaching (April 22), why not shower love on our planet that provides us with abundant resources and breathtaking beauty? One way to honour and celebrate the Earth is through eco-friendly craft ideas. Green craft reduces our environmental footprint while also allowing us to express our creativity in harmony with nature.

Benefits of Eco-Friendly Crafts

While most homes mostly feature mass-produced interior items, the elegance of eco-friendly handicrafts remains unbeatable. Eco-friendly crafts often use sustainable materials such as recycled paper, upcycled fabric, natural fibres like jute and cotton, coconut shells and other similar essentials. Long-term use of such products eventually reduces the demand for virgin resources and minimises waste production. Along the way, it also reduces the adverse effects of deforestation, pollution, and habitat destruction. It lets the human and animal kingdom co-habit as one integral part of the earth. 

But that’s not it! Investing in green craft offers us the peace of mind of knowing that our purchases aren’t disturbing nature. And last, but not least! Most handmade products are fruits of stunning artwork of local, hardworking artisans. Welcoming them into your home lets you support local, small businesses and the local economy.


  

 

5 Must-Have Environment-Friendly Craft Ideas

If you've made up your mind to include more eco-friendly handicrafts in your home or office, here are some of the best eco-friendly craft ideas:

1. Jute Weaving

One of the most popular materials for handloom crafts, jute is a natural fibre that’s known to be sustainable, durable, cheap, and versatile. India is one of the top jute producers in the world, there’s no scarcity of jute in the ‘land of diversity’. Brands like Itokri house a stunning collection of jute weaving materials such as Jute Cotton Noor Embroidery Cushion Cover, Madhubani Handpainted Jute Cotton Clutch, Handpainted Jute Cotton Shoulder Bag, Jute Cotton Hand Braided Doormat or Jute Cotton Hand Braided Round Trivet and more.

2. Sitalpati Crafts

Made of cane, sitalpati, or cool mat is a traditional craft native to Bangladesh and the Indian state of West Bengal. Commonly grown in almost every house’s backyard in tropical monsoon climates, the Murta plants/canes are processed to acquire the strips that feature all over the mats. From hand-woven mats and handmade bags to cushion covers, several other home decor items are made of eco-friendly sitalpati on iTokri. Check them out!


 

 

3. Recycled Creations

The best form of green craft is craft items made of recycled materials. It’s the perfect solution to transform everyday objects into works of art. With endless possibilities of creating eco-friendly crafts from recycled resources, some of the most eye-catching examples are Taat Wool Thread Hand Embroidered Upcycled Pouch, Handmade Stuffed Toy by Dastkar Ranthambhore, Handmade Upcycled Weave Rakhi by Khamir, Plantable Seed Paper Pens - Pack of 10, Handmade Upcycled Fabric Skipping Rope, Handmade Recycled Metal Sculpture, Handmade Paper Work Decor Item and more. It’s the right way to turn trash into treasure.

4. Upcycled Treasures

The collection of upcycled crafts on iTokri is truly impressive. Don’t trust us? Simply browse through the collection to find pieces such as Handwoven Upcycled Cotton Cushion Cover, Taat Wool Thread Embroidery Upcycled Shoulder Bag, Handcrafted Upcycled Paper Magnet or Handcrafted Upcycled Woven Laptop Bag.

5. Coconut Shell Crafts

Who thought that the shell we simply toss after drinking the juice inside holds such immense power to create stunning eco-friendly crafts? Artisans at iTokri have proved how amazing coconut shell craft is. Craft items such as Handcrafted Coconut Shell Earrings or Hand Carved Coconut Shell Clothing Button are proof of the beauty of coconut shell craft.

It’s us (humans) only who can make the earth worthy of living. Being sustainable in no way stops you from enjoying the lavishes of life. It only asks you to be more thoughtful of the materials you use and reduce your ecological footprint. It’s the most effective way to make a positive impact on the planet and protect the precious resources that our planet provides. Join hands with iTokri and welcome eco-friendly Indian crafts in your home for a more sustainable tomorrow.
