Fall is here! Goodbye, scorching days of summer! Hello tights, boots, scarves, and lots of layers! Cooler weather doesn’t have to mean a trip to the big box store. It’s time to get bundled up in handmade fashions. Here are some awesome eco-friendly Etsy finds for Fall.
Conventional household cleaners can be full of nasty stuff. They’re even linked to poor indoor air quality. Not only are there harsh chemicals involved, there’s a certain amount of waste — from disposable sponges to paper towels — that’s not so eco-friendly. Don’t despair! Here are six products from Etsy to help [...]
Summer’s winding down, and it’s time to sharpen those pencils! While Americans have spent less on school supplies this year, the average family still spends about $550.

Since these are made from actual used bike tires each notbook is different with slightly different treads and some with repaired battle wounds.
I love bike gears and this is by far the best re-use I have seen to date.
Mother's Day is less than a month away! That means I've been scouring Etsy for some eco-friendly gifts for my momma.
If the tulips popping up in my garden are any indication, spring has officially sprung. You can even catch some spring fever over at Etsy! Check out these sweet, upcycled finds. Clockwise from the top left: I’m pretty much in love with this Circus of Smiles - Vintage Enamel Flower Assemblage Necklace from Bionic Unicorn. [...]
“Can a business thrive that offers honestly-made, useful products, while charging a fair price and fairly paying its employees?” A Greensboro, NC company called Eco Everyday hopes so and so do we!
Laurent Corio designed this new take on an old piece of furniture. The trestle legs, reminiscent of a saw horse, give this old table a whole new aura. As an antique fanatic (maybe a strange pastime for a 28 year old male) I see mountains of decent furniture that just looks tired and lacks that [...]
