A Greener Home

April 18, 2012

How do you greenify your home? Look to the three Rs, of course.


Reduce
Ginger
pomelo dish soap
by Caldrea ($13.95) is not only aromatherapeutic,
but biodegradable and concentrated so you dont have to use much to get
the job done.



Reuse

Brightly coloured and dishwasher-safe, Ecologie dishware is
made of crushed bamboo and rice hulks. Picnic-perfect salad plates start
at $4.95.

 


Recycle
Were not just talking about cans and bottles. Rick
Bowerman
creates one-of-a-kind pieces, like the coffee table
pictured ($1895), from reclaimed beams salvaged from old Gastown
buildings. Kelsey Dundon
