Branch Home
This month, we have published Cookie's first-ever green issue. So, this week on Nesting, we'll be featuring eco-friendly home ideas and products, as well as a home tour in a midwestern barn. (Get excited!) Let's kick off the week with three great pieces from the green store Branch Home.
1) This friendly yard snake is hand-knit by artisan women in Kenya, who work in safe and healthy working conditions and have great respect for the environment. The snake--and their other knit animals--are made with natural wool yarn and vegetable-based dyes.
2) This child's plaid blanket is made with 100% biodynamic merino wool, biodegradable oils and soaps, and 100% cotton sewing thread. (Whew!) But the blanket is not just eco-friendly, it's also cheery: The yellow color would bring a sunny feel to any nursery; and where the pattern disappears on one side, the pattern is revealed on the other. Cute!
3) This set of five kids' utensils are handmade in China with 100% organically grown bamboo (a rapidly renewable resource) and natural food-safe wood oil. They're modern and beautiful--and come in mini sizes for kids.
