Lyziwraps are a bright, colourful, durable, reuseable gift wrapping solution. Not only do these nylon gift bags provide mess-free waste free-wrapping, but frankly tossing something in a Lyziwrap and tying the drawstrings in a bow is far quicker and simpler then using paper and tape.

I am really fond of this Bamboo Fiber Travel Mug with soft silicone lid. I love the way the mug feels in my hands. I also love that it’s made from Bamboo, a highly renewable resource, and that it’s 100% biodegradeable, dishwasher safe, and good for both hot & cold beverages.
Buy it:
$14 at your local Williams Fresh Cafe. (You can find a list of locations on their website.)
Lilikin & Friends are durable, quirky, cuddly, soft dolls. They are also made from organic cotton, stuffed with recycled polyethylene pellets, with tags made from recycled post consumer waste paper and vegetable based inks.
