SANTA BABY:Celery Street

On Santa Baby's List of Gifts for Mom!

I don't know about you all, but I've definitely jumped on the "Going Green" bandwagon since becoming a mom. I want the world to still be a great place when my children are grown :) I look for every opportunity that I can to help make the transition to becoming green, including lightbulbs, reusable grocery bags, and cloth diapers. As we come upon this Christmas season, I really stepped it up, and began looking for awesome Eco friendly gifts! That's how I found Celery Street!

Celery Street is an online store stocked with a TON of eco friendly products! "Enjoy our selection of eco-friendly, recycled, reused, and refurbished gifts, housewares, and other practical items. We are encouraged by all of the fun, chic, and even elegant earth-conscious items being created by our partners. They're better for the earth and therefore better for us!"

"Together we can learn, be more green, and make a difference in our world. Enjoy shopping on Celery Street!"

One pretty cool fact about Celery Street is that they actually have a store front in Indianapolis! Fort Wayne is only a couple of hours from Indy, and one of my good friends lives there, so I'm hoping to visit VERY soon!! I love the products they carry and would love to experience them in person. Some of my favorites include their journal selection, the EcoUsable Stainless Steel Water Bottle w/Wide Top and the Round Coal Gloss Recycled Glass Serving Bowl.

I received the Sonoma Lavender Recycled Cotton After Shower Wrap for review purposes.

"Imagine an entire field of lavender in full bloom tucked between the Mayacamas Mountains, vineyards, and the Pacific Ocean in California. Sonoma Lavender is a family owned business with a vision… a vision of pure organic lavender essential oil that heals and rejuvenates. Can you smell the calm? This same company has created a remarkable cotton knit made with breathable, ecologically-minded recycled yarns. It feels bumpy, soft, natural, and comforting next to your skin. This absorbent after shower wrap is pure “breathable” comfort. Cold water washable. One size fits most."

I absolutely LOVE it! I have wanted a shower wrap for a while now and am so excited to have this lovely, soft, amazing scented wrap. It's made of soft recycled cotton and scented with lavender essential oils. I can definitely see this wrap fitting a wide variaty of sizes as the velcro strips are pretty long. I also like the covereage it provides. It hits my leg at just the right length! All in all, I am extremely happy with the Sonoma Lavender Recycled Cotton After Shower Wrap and have definitely put it to use after each shower... OR BATH! :)
