The Flor is Green… and that’s not a typo

Wondering what to do with your floors and how to “go green” with style? Design it with Flor. Go green with style, do it cheap and recycle your old carpet. They even pay you to send your old carpet to them!

For just $5 they can send you 6 samples.  Or you can use them for drink coasters. Or you can use them for eco art supplies… or…

To EVEN IT OUT when you re-do your floors… use eco friendly Flor.

Turning Useless into Useful

Wow! Alchemy Goods in Seattle, Washington is “Turning Useless into Useful.” Check out their products and see what innovative products they are creating. I love their Biz Card Holder. It’s constructed from RECYCLED bicycle inner tubes and it’s priced at $10.

Colored Smencils

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.

I heart paper!

I know it is probably more environmentally conscious to send an email, write a text or call. Believe me, I probably communicate more via technology than the average American. We know from previous blogs, I am “a high tech girl on a low tech budget.”

Another one of my loves is paper. Yes, I LOVE PAPER. I love to flip through magazines. I love the feeling of a book. I love writing and receiving letters. I love maps. Recently GPS and Google Maps changed my life, so I stopped buying maps. Yeah for the environment and a woohoo for not getting lost!

I would however feel lost if I stopped writing letters. I think letter writing is a lost art and I don’t want to stop writing letters. One of my favorite stationaries is made from recycled maps. Check out Omni Resources in North Carolina for recycled map stationary. For just $4.95 you can order 25 envelopes!!!
