Recycled Magazine Goodies

I've been admiring these recycled magazine pieces this week. Recycled Paper Trivets from arenaturals.com

I think I might acquire this round recycled magazine mirror this weekend for my kitchen. It is hard to resist and is available and waiting for me at the Berkeley Urban Outfitters.

Sigg Water Bottles

Mother's Day is this coming Sunday and I finally came up with an affordable, useful gift idea. I am buying my mom a Sigg Water Bottle. Maybe your mom would like one too? I see it as a three-in-one purpose, healthier water drinking, reducing plastic bottle consumption, and thirdly, looking stylish! I found this Maha style at Campmor , but you can also buy them directly at Sigg's Site. If you are in the Bay Area, they also sell them at Elephant Pharmacy.

Cork Fabric by Habitus

I have recently been obsessing over NYC company, Habitus that makes cork fabric. I have seen basic cork fabric before but nothing like the silkscreen printed versions that Habitus presently has on the market. Cork fabric is a great alternative to leather, feeling similar in weight and touch. I would like to use some to cover an upholstered headboard for my bedroom!
