Yea! We finally found a replacement trash can for our kitchen. This trash can is made by Simple human. We found this great find today at Bed Bath & Beyond, on sale, w/a 20% coupon, and to top it off a $50.00 visa gift card I had! Thanks mom, for always making sure we hold on to coupons.
In a two weeks we are having family stay so we are preparing for their visit. We wanted to buy 2 pillows for them, so I found the perfect kind. We bought Laura Ashley, Natural Elements line. These pillows are Eco friendly & inexpensive. They are made from natural non-dyed, non-bleached fabric recycled polyester fill, and packaged w/ a biodegradable bag.
You can't just stop at a pillow. You must get a pillow cover, so we did. This is where a funny story comes in. Allen knows my mom, and what she has taught me. Allen then said, "Do you want to find the bug bags?" I pointed to them, which I had glanced at, and already made my decision. He quickly said, "Is that the price for one?". I told him yes. He said for $20.00 each, they can go bug cover less! "I'm buying them brand new pillows." He said. I agreed.
I currently am on the hunt for 100 % organic towels. I found some two weeks ago at Pottery Barn. We have had the same towels for 5 years, and this year they are beginning to show wear & tear. The worst towel was our floor towel. So for the past two months I've been looking to replace it w/Eco friendly materials. I found one that was made out of cork, but in the end I found a beige color, 100 % organic cotton floor mat. After cleaning the bathroom from top to bottom, I was able to debut our new mat. So, I will continue to research, and find our new Eco friendly towels. One of my missions I live by is from my work. I really want to find renewable, Eco chick items, that we use in our daily lives. Part of our mission states to care for the world we live in, from the products we make to the ways in which we give back to society.
In conclusion, I feel complete when I follow our mission, by buying green stuff for the home!
