Merry Christmahanukwanzaakah from all of us here at Idbids! Whatever you celebrate this holiday season—or even if you sit on your couch and say “Bah, Humbug!” to the world this week—we’re in the holiday spirit and hope that you and yours are having a safe, happy, and greener time, this year.

I was digging around for some ways to incorporate some greener habits into our holiday celebrations, and found a few resources I thought I’d share.

First, proof positive that even an iddy biddy step can be delicious: We always have fruit salad on Christmas morning (among other things), and I always marvel at the pile of orange peels that gets tossed out onto the compost pile. A friend introduced me to candied orange rinds (that recipe calls for dipping them in chocolate, which is yummy, but not even necessary), and now I’m feeling virtuous about making goodies! Turning the peels into edible treats may not seem like much, but it’s a small and easy way to reduce waste (and appear to be a gourmet, to boot).

Amy at Crunchy Domestic Goddess has a great round-up of eco-friendly holiday crafts, and my personal favorite are the light bulb ornaments. (Hey, we always seem to have a few incandescents hanging around; what better green way to use them?)

Eco Child’s Play’s Julie Finn has a few more green holiday craft ideas, including festive LEGO ornaments which you can simply disassemble and put away after Christmas.

GreenYour.com comes to the rescue with a comprehensive list of ways to green your Hanukkah, too.

However you celebrate, and whatever iddy biddy step you choose to take, happy holidays from the Idbids!
