Choosing Eco-Friendly Material for Your Home Furnishing

If you are using reusable grocery bags, carrying around your BPA-free water bottle and driving an electric vehicle, you are taking conscious steps toward an eco-friendly lifestyle. But if you're ready to take your environmentally savvy choices one step further, it might be time to invest in green materials for your home. From your patio and living room to your bedrooms and office, there are plenty of ways to transform your home into a more eco-friendly abode. Not sure where to start? Follow this guide to find the furniture and decor that's both mom and Mother Earth approved.

Reclaimed and Recycled Material

If you are looking for reclaimed wood furniture, keep an eye out for the Rainforest Alliance's "Rediscovered Wood Certification," which ensures the wood furniture you are purchasing is made from reclaimed materials. Why? Not only do they have a shorter supply chain, they are an efficient resource that takes advantage of old furniture, houses or other pre-used materials that are ready to be recreated into your next dining room table or outdoor patio furniture. If you prefer metal or plastic, look for furniture made of recycled material, which requires fewer resources, less processing and promotes less waste ending up in the landfill.

In case you were wondering, reusing these materials does not mean their quality will deteriorate over time. In fact, thanks to modern technology, the quality of recycled material increases with the length of time it stays in the recycle loop.

Certified Sustainable Wood

The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) promotes environmentally sound, socially beneficial and economically prosperous management of the world's forests. FSC certified wood ensures that the product comes from responsibly managed forests that do not lead to deforestation, and also ensures that the wood provides environmental, social and economic benefits to the community while maintaining good working conditions for employees. For those interested in every step of the manufacturing process, the FSC also provides documented chain of control of the the wood so you know exactly how your wooden desk came to fruition. Our planet needs more trees to absorb the carbon dioxide we emit and produce the oxygen we need to breathe. Buying wood furniture might seem counterproductive, however, if you're purchasing sustainable materials that are harvested from tree farms that keep the environment in mind, you'll still be making an eco-friendly choice that does not lead to deforestation.

Low-Toxicity Furniture

When considering the health of the environment, it is important to also evaluate the impact furniture might have on the health of your family. Factors to consider include wood finish, adhesives, upholstery fabric, whether fire retardants were used and coating for waterproofing and soiling prevention. This might all seem overwhelming with so many factors to keep in mind, however, if you're purchasing from a company that has already adapted a green mindset, it is very likely they are also considering the health of their consumer. For the official seal, look for Greenguard-certified furniture that ensures low toxicity that is natural, untreated or has low chemical emissions, meaning it is safer for your family as well as the environment.

Featuring four new original songs, the 21-minute featurette welcomes the original cast and characters back to the big screen, including Olaf (voice of Josh Gad), who is on a mission to harness the best holiday traditions for Anna (voice of Kristen Bell), Elsa (voice of Idina Menzel) and Kristoff (voice of Jonathan Groff). Directed by Emmy-winning filmmakers Kevin Deters and Stevie Wermers-Skelton, produced by Oscar winner Roy Conli, with original songs by Elyssa Samsel and Kate Anderson, Olaf's Frozen Adventure will be in theaters for a limited time beginning Nov. 22nd.

“I’m thrilled that Disney Animation’s featurette Olaf's Frozen Adventure will be coming to theaters in November with Pixar’s CoCo", said John Lasseter, chief creative officer, Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios. “It’s a perfect pairing – they’re both beautiful, heartfelt films about families and how people carry traditions forward. I can’t wait for audiences to get to see both of these terrific projects together on the big screen.”

Olaf's Frozen Adventure celebrates characters who won over audiences worldwide when Frozen first hit the big screen in 2013.

Gift Baskets For Businesses

For account representatives and business owners, a gift basket is a great way to tell your customers thank you for their business. For an employer, it's a genuine way to show your appreciation for your employees. Before choosing or creating a basket on your own, however, there a few things to keep in mind to make sure you're picking out the right one.

Be Selective

Don't be afraid to be selective when it comes to offering your clients a gift during the holiday season or even as a thank you. For example, if you have 100 clients and only 20 of those make you 90 percent of your money, then don't feel inclined to offer the other 80 a gift, especially if you can't afford it.

Consider the Consumable Goods

It's hard to go wrong when it comes to food. Even if your recipient doesn't like something, they can share it with someone else, making it a win-win situation. Bottles of wine, boxes of chocolates, fruit and assorted nuts make wonderful choices when picking out a gift basket.

Be Personable

Picking out a gift basket at your local retailer is a nice gesture; however, it won't have a personal touch associated with it, making it feel like any other gift someone may receive. Whether it's a personalized greeting card attached to the top or even a customized label with your business name on it, adding this personal touch, even if it's small, can help your basket really stand out. If you're unsure what kind of personalized gift you should create, check with some online retailers before hitting the order now button.

Give Back

On top of offering a gift basket, consider making a small contribution to a charity of your choice or one your recipient may be interested in and let it be known inside a card. This way, your gift can benefit more than just the person it was intended for. No matter how you give or what you choose, the right gift basket, regardless of how it's done, should leave a long lasting and positive impression for years to come. 

 

4 Reasons to Never Skimp on Vacation Luxuries

Budget is a big deal when you go on vacation. From hotels and activities, to transportation and food, there are dozens of things to account for. However, you should never skimp on vacation luxuries, and this article tells you why.

Vacations are Rare Indulgences…Most of the Time

For most people, vacations are considered an odd rare indulgence. People actually work to accumulate vacation time, so they can head to their favorite places without care or concern. So, since vacations are supposed to be indulgent, there is no reason to skimp on the luxuries. This might be your only opportunity for a while to really go all out when snagging the best of the best for all of your amenities and activities. If vacations are indulgent, then by all means INDULGE.

You Deserve Comfort and Relaxation

After working so hard in your everyday profession, you deserve some comfort and relaxation. Whether it be with your family and loved ones, or totally alone for a few days of calm awesomeness, you should really strive to feel luxurious and even a little spoiled. Luxuries, such as room service, Singer Island condo rentals, and plush feather pillows, are some of the best parts about being on vacation.

You Have Enough in Your Budget for a Luxury or Two

If you think you never have enough in your vacation budget for a few luxuries, think again. If you divvy up your money a different way, you might find that you have plenty for a luxury or two. Upgrade your hotel choice, downgrade an activity or two, and focus on what YOU love to indulge in. Whether it be a hot Jacuzzi, or a private honeymoon suite, you have the funds if you do a bit of vacation rerouting.

You Might Regret It If You Skip Out

You never know what life will hold once you get away from your getaway. When you return to the normalcy of everyday life, you might find yourself thinking back to your vacation. If you skimped on too many luxuries and travel indulgences, you may feel regret because it could be a while before you are able to go on vacation again.

It’s okay to keep a budget for your vacation, but you need to plan around the things that you want the most. If you have always wanted to stay at a 5-star hotel, plan for it. Even if your vacation is years away. You can still make a mental note, save up, and dream about all the fun you’ll have when you get to indulge in something awesome.

5 Tips for a Faster Remodeling Project

Whether you're replacing your kitchen counter-tops or installing a whole new room in the basement, there are certain tips that you can follow to ensure a smoother, faster renovation. Use the following as a guideline for creating your dream home without the usual stresses!

1. Create a Schedule

Draw up a schedule whenever you start a home renovation. Even if you can't follow it exactly, it will serve as a useful guideline for where you should be in the remodeling process as time goes on. It can also help you overcome setbacks and prevent delays from having ripple effects across your entire timeline; this is invaluable for long-term projects that will take months instead of days.

2. Talk to Your Team

Communication is vital for a successful remodeling project. It doesn't matter if you're dealing with commercial architects or residential building contractors; if the lines of communication aren't open between you and the people bringing your vision to life, you're just asking for problems to arise. Put the right numbers in your phone and make sure that the right email addresses are stored in your inbox.

3. Check Your Walls

Were you aware that bugs can stop a remodeling project right in its tracks? It's a health hazard for the construction crew, and they're legally required to stop working until the issue is resolved. The same goes for mold or rodent infestations. If you don't want your project to hit a dead end before its time, make sure that your walls are all clear.

4. Know What You Want

This is easier said than done, of course, but nothing slows down a renovation like second-guessing your choices. In addition to wasting everyone's time with your indecision, you'll also incur additional expenses as things are torn out or re-installed on a whim. Try to have everything figured out before you put your contractors on the clock; this will save you a lot of time, money and energy in the long run.

5. Vet Your Contractors

Speaking of contractors, you'll want to double-check their qualifications before giving them permission to knock down your walls. How long have they been in business? Are they members of any professional roofing organizations or electrician networks? Make sure to do your homework even if they come recommended by family or friends; your aunt's experience with the company might not reflect your own.

These are just a few things to keep in mind as you plan a home renovation. At the end of the day, the most important thing is that you make or create the desired changes to your home, so let your schedule be secondary to your vision.

 

Otis Grows

As much as we’d like to, there’s no way to completely shield our children from all change, conflict, and grief. The truth is, there’s so much beauty in the world often overshadowed by the “scary” that it’s more important than ever that we teach our kids how to confidently grow in the face of challenge. In the beautifully crafted new children’s book Otis Grows by Kathryn Hast, we’re introduced to young Otis, a red onion who is forced to question his origin and allegiances - given that his mom, a yellow chicken, is part of the Nuh-Uhs, and his dad, a blue flower, stems from the Yes-Chums. Struggling to find answers, Otis runs away, only to encounter more colors and cultures than he could ever imagine. Rooted in the challenges of family conflict, this book appeals to any child – or adult – who knows that growing up can be tough, but that, ultimately, love and wonder will win. Full of bright color and themes of growth and awakening, Otis Grows is a perfect addition to every family’s spring reading list.

Tingle Boots Empowers Women

"Pretending to be normal day after day is exhausting," says Suzy Toronto. Toronto is a self-proclaimed "wacky" woman, and she wants others to embrace their inner wackiness too. In fact, she's created an entire art brand that speaks (mostly) to girls and women, inspiring them to embrace their rarity, goofiness, and everything that makes them unique - no matter how silly it may seem. Toronto works out of her home studio in Smyrna Beach, Florida where she creates playful and distinctive artwork for a variety of products - from mugs to coloring books to cell phone covers and everything in between.

Her newest creations come in the form of coloring books with her latest book, Tingle Boots, stating loud and proud that "life is better in boots." Four additional books comprise this series: Friendship Coloring Book, Sisterhood Coloring Book, Inspiration & Encouragement Coloring Book, and Light & Laughter Coloring Book. In each book, Suzy Toronto sprinkles encouraging and empowering quotes. "Release your inner child and believe in yourself again," Toronto says. "There's more inside you than you ever dreamed possible!" Toronto also advocates on behalf of breast cancer survivors. Some of her product proceeds benefit cancer research. Ultimately, Toronto's goal is to continue empowering women. "We believe in women. We uplift women. We empower women. And we support women whenever and however we can," she says.

Best-selling artist and writer Suzy Toronto's distinctive artwork and inspiring words celebrate life, family, and the special bond between girlfriends. For two decades her distinctive artwork and humorous wisdom have been popular gift items. Her signature drawings of madcap women with wild hair and brightly colored attire can be found on greeting cards, calendars, bookmarks, magnets, and more. Suzy is the author of 10 books, including The Sacred Sisterhood of Wonderful Wacky Women and Live a Life Worth Loving.
