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…

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.

Cupcakes Make Me Smile

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!

To EVEN IT OUT when you bake… use silicone liners.

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!!!

To EVEN IT OUT when you write letters… buy recycled map stationary.

BYOB (Bring Your Own Bag) with Style

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.

If you are looking for a stylish print check out Reusable Bags for 5 prints under $10.
Or you can check out Home on 3rd Street for solid color bags for under $6.
