Succulents and flower crowns are nice, but perhaps you want to give the earth child in your life something a little more long-lasting. Fortunately, there are many fun and unique ways to incorporate the beauty of the outdoors into modern life—whether it’s wearing an animal-inspired garment, completing a cactus design embroidery kit, or completing a relaxing floral coloring book. In fact, My Modern Met Store has put together a freshly picked selection of gifts for nature lovers just for the occasion.
When technology is glued to our fingertips and distractions are everywhere we look, it can be hard to connect with the environment. Sketchbooks and journals are great ways to practice mindfulness and help your outdoorsy friend find their way back into mother nature. Alternatively, the Secret Garden Adult Coloring Book by Johanna Basford provides dozens of intricate, garden-inspired illustrations that recipients can color in at their leisure. Or, Katie Daisy’s How to Be a Wildflower is an all-inclusive guide to finding the fun in the natural world, with motivational quotes, pressed flower projects, meditations, and more.
For those that want to take a piece of nature wherever they go, accessories are ideal. The Wheat Barn Owl Bird Scarf by Shovava, for example, features a stunning illustration of the nocturnal bird that flies across the wearer’s shoulders, adding a bohemian touch to any ensemble. However, there’s no better way to truly become one with nature than with the Watercolor Butterfly Temporary Tattoos by Tattly. These precut tattoos come ready to wear and, once placed, last up to four days.
