Recycling is fun

Today I had to go to the Orange Grove recycling center at Warner Park because our garage was bursting with glass of various colors, aluminum cans, steel cans, cardboard and paper. But when I say "I had to go" I don't really mean that I dislike going. I actually really enjoy going to the recycling center and it makes me feel very good to drop in each item in the corresponding container. Ah, the simple pleasures in life.

Environmentally friendly tooth brushes

I just received my 4 environmentally friendly recycline tooth brushes I ordered a few days ago. The company is very much in touch with the environment and the handles of these tooth brushes are made from 100% recycled plastics. They also have a partnership with Stonyfield Farm along those lines. It feels good to support an environmentally friendly cause while brushing teeth. :-)

The Stendig wall calendar

I got this very artistic Stendig wall calendar as a gift and with is 48x36 size it it quite unique. It was originally designed in 1966 by Massimo Vignelli and was accepted into the Design Collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York the same year. 40 years later the design still is stunning and makes a great gift for an artistic minded person or someone who loves modern furniture design.

The Stendig calendar pages can also be recycled at the end of each month by using them as funky gift wrap.

Nice shakers

Check out these Litespeed titanium salt and pepper shakers for 75 bucks. Litespeed, better known for their unique bicycles recycled material which is too short for frame elements and crafted these salt and pepper shakers and engraved them with nice details. Very cool.
