Plastic bag uncool? You want to be green with style? Furoshiki is the answer, as the above video can attest.
Furoshiki is an environmentally friendly Japanese wrapping cloth that were frequently used to transport clothes, gifts, or other goods. It can be made of a variety of cloths, including silk, chirimen, cotton, rayon, and nylon and is often decorated with traditional designs.
True to its name, this Bamboo Tornado pen's handle is made entirely out of bamboo. Not only it looks cool, because it's made from bamboo, it is environmentally sustainable too since bamboo is a renewable resource that is both beautiful and durable. When you purchase a Bamboo Tornado pen, you are also helping the Arbor Day Foundation to help rescue 250 square feet of rain forest and the habitat it protects. This pen gets our two thumbs up!
"Before you buy another darn cute baby/kooky animal greeting card visit Paper-Ya on Granville Island where you’ll find subversively humorous designs and whimsical garland cards. Shop here for beautiful Midsummer Light lanterns by Tord Boontje, Moleskine notebooks and that last-minute gift for your brother-in-law or the postman." Vancouver Magazine
