Insulated glazing, also know as double glazing to the layman, oh where to begin? Well let’s start with the definition shall we? The Double Glazing term relates from double to tripled paned glass windows separated by an air or other gas filled space to reduce heat transfer. Pretty groovy, huh? Insulated Glass Units (IGUs) are [...]

As we’ve mentioned before, we are at full capacity at our house when it comes to our fur babies. We have five, count them, five dogs…yes you read that right. Brody, Boston, Huckleberry, Nanna and Willow are all extremely loved and important members of our family. I am crazy passionate about adopting animals from animal shelters, the SPCA, or [...]

I’ve been meaning to write about these earth-friendly brushes for ages, because I am in love, sweet love, with them. I actually have two of the bamboo powder brushes which I use everyday for applying my blush and bronzer and the 6 piece brush set which I use for eyeshadow application. It’s no lie when I say [...]

Inspiration for our articles comes from many different places and last week I found a great company that inspired me to logon and write; My inspiration came when I was “Googling” for recycled bags and purses, buried on the second page of my Google search was a name that just jumped out at me… UrthBags [...]

This week I have been thinking a lot about Martin and I’s quest to be a green go to couple.

I’m afraid that I am completely guilty of grabbing a bottle of water anytime I’m lounging around, I leave the house, or work out. Instead of just using a glass I was constantly grabbing a bottle and most of the time not disposing of them properly when I had finished. A story on The National Geographic Kids website at [...]

Sorry for the pun, but my favorite candles that I’m pretty much addicted to are Pacifica Soy Candles. You gotta love a candle that uses a natural soy wax formula, comes in a spiffy decorative tin, and smells A-MAZING to boot.  We currently have two  7 oz. candles around the house and they really give [...]

Time to lay it all out there. After a full week of using my Pangea Organics facial cleanser….alright alright, enough of the third degree, I only used it a couple of days, but I have to say I am not a fan. I wish I could say it was a girl meets face wash, girl [...]

I’ll just come right out and say it….I’m OCD about washing my face. I’m all about a fresh, clean face, so changing my skin care routine is going to be hard. Really hard.
