Buy from brands that are dealing with ethical labor standards and fair trade. Preferable find those brands that work towards uplifting artisan communities. If they are passionate about eco-friendly design, then that is even better. If you buy wooden furniture, then look for items that don’t contribute to deforestation. Make sure their wood is sustainably-sourced.
If you decide to take out a piece of decor from your home, choose to donate it or even sell it. Even if it sells for less money, this will make sure that the item goes to a person who will value it. It will not end up in a landfill. Don’t assume that just because it is used or old that no one will want it.
