Colored Smencils

14 05 2008

Yes, I have lots of loves. Another love is Colored Smencils. I feel like a kid again when I use colored pencils and these really make me giggle. They are made from 100% recycled newspapers and come packaged in their own (recyclable) Freshness Tube. You may ask why it needs a Freshness Tube. Well, let me tell you why I love these eco art supplies… They are soaked in environmentally-friendly fragrance liquids and they smell YUMMY!

A great gift for under $10 for kids or an adult who is a kid at heart.

To EVEN IT OUT when you are creating in color… use Colored Smencils from Stubby Pencil Studio.

Classic Nonstick Bakeware Muffin Pan with Silicone Liners
Ah, nothing like a cupcake to bring a smile to your face. I love to bake cupcakes for birthdays and recently went in search of how to “go green” when I bake and of course bake in style. This weekend I found Silicone Cupcake Liners. Now I don’t have to add more trash with paper or aluminum liners when I bake.

You can go to Calphalon® or check out Target for Kitchen Essentials® from Calphalon® Cupcake Liners 12 pk. for $9.99 for yourself… or for a gift!

BYOB (Bring Your Own Bag) with Style

9 05 2008

Some people love shoes. I love bags and stationary. Yes, I love to shop and I typically bring my own bag. I used to keep bags in the trunk of my car for shopping and I would forget them when I went into the store. My friend Susan gave me this bag as a gift and I LOVE IT!!! I keep it in my purse. The bag itself is large (20×21x4) and holds up to 22 pounds.
