Details on how to enter and the bottom of this post.

One – Since 1969 it has been Lee Industries’ mission to create stylish, high quality home furnishings that are eco-friendly. Lee manufactures earth-friendly furniture products, like this sofa using sustainable processes and bio-based upholstery.

Two – Amy Butler’s fresh, bright and modern bedding line and best of all its 100 Organic. Butler’s bedding collections include 400 thread count sheets, elegant embroidery and low-impact dye prints that hold their color.

Three – This chic Cabana Desk and Desk Stool by ducduc are both made from sustainably harvested hardwoods, and water based, non-toxic finishes. I love that the furniture in all manufactured in ducduc’s factory in Connecticut.

Four – Virtually odorless Natura paint by Benjamin Moore is one of the greenest paint available on the market. I love it because it is virtually odorless, zero VOC emissions and best yet is available in any color selection.

The walls is this darling eco-friendly nursery {above} were designed by Shannon Kaye. Using a soft yellow {Opaline OC-33} as the base, Kaye adds visual interest with a modern tree stencil in Carob AF-160, August Morning 2156-40, Fairview Taupe HC-85 and Sundance 2022-50. An old rocking chair and dresser look new again in Sundance. The ceiling in August Morning orange is bright and cheery.

Five – These simple, modern and versatile Wall Tiles are made from 100 bamboo pulp {a renewable resource}. This embossed three-dimensional wallcovering is also free of chemicals and are 100 bio-degradable. Available at Inhabit.

Six – The Cyrilla Daybed by Pure is one of my favorites. Pure’s uses materials that are biodegradable, sustainable and have non-emitting finishes.

Seven – With a trademark design style and eco-friendly printing practices wallpaper by Given Campbell is a cut above the rest. The Divine Collection {sampling above} is based on different patron saints and was designed with the hopes of inspiring you to hang it in unexpected places.

Eight – Luxurious upholstery fabrics by O Ecotextiles are produced in non-toxic, ethical and sustainable ways. Opulent, yet organic – love it!

Nine- Mod Green Pod’s stylish and colorful fabrics are printed on 100 certified organic cotton grown in the United States. By weaving and printing their product line completely in the United States they also reduce energy expenditures on shipping. Mod Green Pod uses non-toxic, low-impact printing pigments and dyes give our fabrics rich, saturated color. In addition their textiles do not contain any dangerous chemicals such as formaldehyde (wrinkle-free agents), PBDEs (flame retardents) or PFOA (i.e. Teflon/Scotchgard) off-gassing into your home.

Ten – LEDs. This LED edison bulb is up to 90 more energy efficient than an incandescent bulb and can last up to 100,000 hours, over ten years, reducing cost and conserving energy. These bulbs do not heat up or emit mercury and offer colorfast, stable decorative lighting for accents and ambience.

Leveraging LED technology, the Philips LivingColor floor lamp is small, chic and modern. With four LEDs, it casts light onto any wall or room creating instant mood, ambience and color.
