sprig.

We've been talking green quite a bit lately. It makes sense, right: healthy, clean, safe, charitable, unique.. equals cool. That's my take. But sometimes it's hard to make great ideas turn into great lifestyle when the resources are a bit limited {or at least hard to find}.

Now, take a good look at Sprig. It's not only making green stylish, but accessible. Green food, fashion, beauty, home, and lifestyle. All in one place. A design savvy site that tells me, for example, about:

Recycline Preserve Jr. Toothbrushes:


why it's good: The pea pod grips and the unique Preserve angle help kids brush properly and comfortably; the bristles are soft enough for their teeth and gums. Plus, it comes in three fun colors, which is all your kid really cares about when it comes to a toothbrush.
why it's green: The handle is made from recycled materials (including Stonyfield Farm yogurt cups); you can return the toothbrush when it's time for a new one (Recycline provides you with a postage-paid return envelope) and the company will grind it up to make material for recycled plastic lumber. All Recycline's packaging is made from recyclable materials.
note: Price shown is for a pack of 4.

Rootcorn Woollyhoodwinks Collection: Ludic


why it's good: Your little one will instantly develop a soft spot for this spunky, strong-willed creature who looks vaguely lost.
why it's green: Made of select wool with loving care, and by hand, which means less energy is used and less pollution is produced than in industrial production.

Cotton Monkey Sweet Jane Hooded Towel


why it's good: Your little monkey will love being bundled up in this colorful, cozy, absorbent hooded towel after bath time.
why it's green: The fabric is 100% certified organic cotton and contains no formaldehyde or chlorine bleach; the colorful design is made using non-toxic water-based pigments and dyes.
