just bin it
Filed Under Going Green, Multi-tasking, Stuff | May 27, 2009
No matter how good you are at decluttering, your tot’s goodies just seem to proliferate. Whether you’ve got a plethora of toys, stuffies or books, 3 Sprouts’ organic storage bin can handle anything you throw at – or in – it.
Made from organic cotton canvas spruced up with elephants and owls in eco-spun felt – from recycled water bottles no less – this is a bin that seriously multi-tasks. And you know how we love that. Use it for toys, books, laundry, clothe storage or even for packing the piles of essentials you need for summer road trips. No matter what you stuff in there, it can take it.
Sturdy enough to stay upright when it’s empty, it also handily folds away in the unlikely event you don’t need it. The carrying handles on the side mean you can also easily tote it, and the treasures inside, around the house. Oh, it’s cute and well-priced too. Whether you choose a green owl or a pink elephant it’ll add a certain je ne sais quoi to your décor for just $38, which, for an organic offering, is in the realm of reasonable.
3 Sprouts is a cool, Toronto-based company. Not only are all their products organic, but they’re also big on ensuring their workers, no matter where they’re located, are treated with dignity and respect and are entitled to their basic rights.
We also like their cute hooded towels. Continuing with the animal motif you can choose from an elephant, chicken, hippo or monkey. Because they combine a cotton knit exterior with a cotton terry interior, they actually do keep your chilly post-bath baby toasty and warm. And when your towel’s ready for the wash? Why just toss it in your organic storage bin.
Talk about eco-coordinated.
