Lavender All Natural Soap-on-a-Rope
by Heavenly Scent Soaps
Remember the soap-on-a-rope? Well, it's back - and better than before! Soap On a Rope has been a favorite gift for men for generations. Now this classic has been brought up to date for today's more natural man (or woman). Just hang it over your shower head or around your neck and it's always in easy reach. Delight him - or her! - with this wonderful new take on a classic gift. The Lavender Soap On a Rope is a five ounce ball of hand-rolled soap on a jute rope, featuring lavender for its important properties of being calming, antiseptic, and soothing. Ingredients are all natural, scented with pure essential oils, and colored naturally with oils and/or herbs, spices, and clays. We have listened to our customers! Many of you told us you prefer the rope to be long enough to hang around the neck ("necklace length"), rather than just long enough to hang on a hook ("hook length"). All the soap-on-a-rope we offer now are made with "hang around the neck" length ropes. An especially nice touch for those with mobility challenges (Alzheimer's, post-hip replacement) who cannot be bending over to pick up soap! Lovingly handmade in North Carolina. Ingredients: Saponified oils (coconut, olive, palm kernel, and/or palm oil), shea butter, lavender essential oil & grapefruit seed extract.

Energy Muse Sri Yantra Flat Oval Necklace
by Energy Muse
The Sri Yantra’s abstract symbol is a frozen wave pattern created by the mantric intonation of “Aum.” The ancient Indian Vedic texts teach that “Aum” is the feminine creative principle - the formless Goddess - the sacred sound and vibration of Consciousness, which creates, supports and destroys all physical forms in the universe. The great sages of India taught that the whole world is a creation from the sacred sound of “Aum” and that the Sri Yantra is the most holy symbol of enlightenment. Sri Yantra represents the timeless creative principle of the universe. The use of this sacred geometry is a very powerful means by which an individual may bring divine blessings into their life. The three-dimensional form of the Sri Yantra, dating back to 3000 B.C., is a multi pyramid grid signifying unlimited abundance and positive powers, and helps to clear negative energy. Quartz Crystal is a stone of manifestation and the Sphatik is a type of Quartz that is revered in India to be the dwelling place of the Goddess. Silver is the color of the Goddess. Wearing, or even seeing this sacred geometrical symbol is thought to bring affluence, abundance, blessings and love into ones life. Sri Yantra Affirmation: The universe supports me unconditionally. This unique handcrafted jewelry has been cleansed using ancient techniques and energized to amplify the power and healing properties of the stones. For optimum sri yantra results, wear your jewelry for 10 days straight. (It's ok to take it off at night). Note: The pendant can vary. Sometimes it will appear with notches on the rim (as pictured). Other times, the pendant is smooth without the notches. The energy is the same in both pieces. All pendants are hand-selected to ensure beauty and quality. 25" Necklace

Planet Pixies - Maia the Tree Pixie
by I Love My Planet Toys
Hi, my name is Maia and I'm a tree pixie from the Amazon Rain Forest! The Amazon is the world's largest and most famous rain forest and is home to more species of plants and animals than any other place on the planet. About 30% of the world's animal species are found there including the jaguar, parrots, crocodiles, many kinds of monkeys - and of course Pixies! The trees of the Amazon are being cut down every day, much faster than the Amazon trees grow. This is call “deforestation”. Humans are the main cause of the loss of rainforest trees. We cut down rainforests for many reasons, including: wood for both building and heating; to make way for farms and grazing land for cattle, and road construction. Deforestation is a very real environmental threat.. All around the world, trees are being cut down too quickly for Earth to grow new forests. We are losing types of trees and animals that we don't even know existed! Choose a Pixie to adopt, and then don't forget to go to visit planetpixies.com to learn more about her homeland and what you can do to make sure no more pixies lose their homes! Planet Pixies are made from organic cotton fabric and all natural materials colored using non-toxic water based dyes. About Planet Pixies * Planet Pixies are 13 inches tall and made from organic cotton fabric and all natural materials colored using non-toxic water based dyes. * The cotton fabric is certified organic by the SKAL organic exchange 100 guideline control union certificate # CU CERT 809381 * Pixie packaging is made from 100% post consumer recycled cardboard, and is 100% recyclable. * Pixies are produced and manufactured in Sri Lanka.

WHAT MAKES IT GREENER
HempOrganic production is based on a system of farming that maintains and replenishes soil fertility without the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and fertilizers.
Organic cotton is grown using methods and materials that have a reduced impact on the environment. Organic production systems replenish and maintain soil fertility, reduce the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and fertilizers, and build biologically diverse agriculture. Third-party certification organizations verify that organic producers use only methods and materials allowed in organic production.
Recycling is the reprocessing of old materials into new products, with the aims of preventing the waste of potentially useful materials, reducing the consumption of fresh raw materials, reducing energy usage, reducing air (from incineration) and water (from landfilling) pollution by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal, and lowering greenhouse gas emissions as compared to virgin production.
Jute is a long, soft, shiny vegetable fiber that can be spun into coarse, strong threads. It is produced from plants in the genus Corchorus, family Tiliaceae. It is one of the cheapest natural fibers and is second only to cotton in amount produced and variety of uses. Jute fiber is 100% biodegradable and recyclable and thus environmentally friendly.
Hemp is harvested for its fibers for hemp clothing and seeds for hemp oil. With a relatively short growth cycle of 100-120 days, it is an efficient and economical crop for farmers to grow, however, industrial hemp cannot be commercially grown in the United States because it is erroneously confounded with marijuana. In fact, industrial hemp and marijuana are different breeds of Cannabis sativa. Smoking large amounts of hemp flowers can produce a headache but not a high!
Post-consumer means any material that has been used by a consumer and then recycled for use in a new product. It is not the same as post-industrial waste, which is the reintroduction of manufacturing scraps into the manufacturing process.
