Whether you’ll be relaxing at home for a week or simply have a night off, you can bring a little taste of more tropical climates to you with the Caribbean Pina Colada Glasses by Mexican design duo Javier and Efren, who have been featured in a variety of magazines and newspapers for their creative glass pieces and efforts at preserving Mexico’s blown glass artistry.  The Caribbean Glasses, available at Novica, are made from lead-free recycled glass that’s handblown by the artists individually, resulting in truly one of a kind glassware that’s just as much art work as it is a functional kitchen piece.

Daily Greenz #25

Cargo went above and beyond the call of duty when it created the PlantLove
Botanical Lipstick.

Besides the lipstick itself being made from all-natural products, the carton is made entirely from corn, saving emissions of some serious greenhouse gases. And the real kicker: the packaging contains flower seeds, so you can grow a garden as beautiful as your lips.
