Like most gals, we like fun little trinkets & pretty things. Especially when it's green! Here are some girly green things we've come across lately, why we like em' & where you can grab em'!

	Botanical Paperwork's Plantable Desk Calendars keeps giving even after the months have passed.  Embedded with wild flower seeds, each sheet can be planted after use.  Girls love pretty stationeries and we love flowers even more!  Grab your very own before the new year starts at BotanicalPaperworks.com.  Along with plantable calendars, they also carry a variety of stationery products from greeting cards to journals.
	Stylish and Reusable Goody Green Bags - It is such a good feeling to walk out of a store without a single plastic bag holding your purchased items. It took a few tries before remembering the reusable bags before heading out to shop, but with a nifty little item like the Goody Green Bag, you're always prepared.  The stylish bag that folds into the size of an envelope fits easily in a purse or the car's glove compartment.  Pick a fashionable design that fits your funky style at GoodyGreenBag.com, and for a limited time get 15% off!
	Heaven Scent Organic Tea Lights (Cranberry) - For a nice bath I yearn for a subtle scent to set a calming mood. I use these organic, heaven scented tea light candles from ScentedCandleShop to do the trick. If you'd rather smell your bath soap yet still enjoy the candlelit atmosphere, ScentedCandleShop also carry these rechargeable candles.  No wax, no mess, no fuss.
	Change, A Starter Kit - For my friends that say "I just don't know where to start." I've got just the thing! This starter kit has everything you need to stimulate the mind and guide you to the right direction.  Items in this handy dandy kit includes a stylish  reusable tote, CFL light bulb, envelope addressed & stamped to a four star charity, 3 gratitude cards, a sodoku booklet, a treeless journal, recycled pencil & fair trade hot chocolate. You can grab this gift that keeps on giving at StarterKitForChange.com

	The oldest and wisest character, Olivia, sets the groundwork for the basis of the story. She explains “The Great Forgetting,” or a break in communication between the earth and human beings, bringing us to the current state of our environment. Olivia was born in Hawaii but now lives off the coast of Rhode Island. She grew up surfing, playing water sports, and studying sea life. She is a complex mix of emotion and intuition, and is ruled by the water element. She will tend to “mother” the other children as the series unfolds.

This is the final part of my "greening yourself from the inside out" bit. However, as I have mentioned before, "being green" is a journey, a new life path. We determine how far and how involved we will take it. I will not be handing you a "you are now green certificate", however I now set your inner greenness free to grow out of the biosphere of you. So what now? Get out into the world and DO SOMETHING –do your part, whatever you decide that may be. And let me remind you, any and all efforts add up so start where you feel comfortable and expand from there.

Here's some ideas:
