Pictured above: Marbella collection by Prosperity Candle with decorative holders that can be repurposed into home decor.

Our home is where we tend to spend most of our time, so it feels good to fill it with wonderful people, good vibes and decor we love. Think of all the time we put into deciding which color to paint the bedroom or where to place that favorite painting. Every coffee table, comforter, candle and throw is a reflection of who you are, so imagine how good it feels if those also reflect your values. 

With the Earth Hour and Earth Day movements, more conscious consumers are speaking up to show they care how a product impacts our natural resources, the climate and the environment. When it comes to ethical shopping, you can find incredible eco-minded and sustainable home decor brands out there that offer gorgeous artisan-made eco friendly home products. One incredible way to make a difference for artisans and be kind to the planet is by supporting eco friendly home decor brands.

To get you started, we put together some of our favorite socially-conscious and sustainable home brands that give back. Since Prosperity Candle's founding, we've believed in designing beautiful decor that gives back. Enjoy having a sustainable home that is chic, stylish and ethical!
