Dedicated Email: Sustainable Kids From Little Saplings Grow
Filed Under Dedicated Emails | August 26, 2008
So you’ve got your kids sipping out of BPA-free bottles, your family eats locally, and you eschew plastic toys. But what about your kids’ décor? Is it not just safe for them and the environment but also sustainable and stylish? It may seem a tall order to be able to decorate your child’s spaces in fun, innovative ways while also being socially and environmentally responsible, but thanks to Saplings Sustainable Kids Décor it’s becoming a lot easier to create fun, eco-friendly spaces for your kids.
Saplings features products that use fair trade and eco-responsible practices to enhance your kids’ bedrooms and bathrooms. The creators Chris and Jo, two Port Moody mamas with six kids between them, are justifiably proud of the Saplings Difference whereby they ask all the tough questions – ‘who made this?’, ‘what is it made from’ and ‘where was it made’ – so you don’t have to.
The best part? There’s no sacrificing style for sustainability at Saplings. You’ll find great lines of organic cotton bedding like Lovelines and Supercharged by Pixel Organics or fun prints from Cotton Monkey. And until September 30th (while supplies last) when you pop a Starburst duvet cover into your shopping cart they’ll throw in a free pillow sham.
And if decorating is not your forté, they’ve put together entire room collections to make things easy for you. You’ll find everything you need to fit out a room for any sports enthusiast in your home, young or old, including very cool clocks and picture frames made from recycled bicycle parts. You’ll also find great original artwork, everything from custom designed portraits from Liz Clay to one-of-a-kind collages (pictured) made from reclaimed wood veneer and fabrics from Petit Flaneur.
Children’s rooms are their unique space to play, sleep and dream. And how great is it that Saplings makes it possible for them to do that in a chemical-free, kind-to-mother earth, sustainable way? Ahh…guilt free shopping.
From now until September 30th you’ll also get free shipping – and a cool Saplings reusable shopping bag – on all orders over $100.
