Be nice to the planet!

Hello to the first robins of spring that I saw just the other day. We have long awaited your arrival.

We welcome the seasonal change with wide open arms and wonder what Mother Nature has in store for us in the coming months.

If this past winter is a taste of global warming then our environmental impact needs to be considered daily.

Earth Day, April 22, reminds us each to get outside and clean up our own corner of the world and be aware of the toll we place on the planet in our daily lives.

We hope you are inspired by our newsletter to make some earth conscious choices when purchasing products.

Sigrid and Staff

Ecologie by Now Designs

Make earth-thoughtful decisions when you are looking to treat yourself or others to a burst of colour in the kitchen. We’d like to introduce Ecologie by Now Designs: a new line of environmentally-sustainable kitchenware. This product is made of crushed bamboo and rice husks, which is a waste by-product of rice harvesting.

Pieces include: dinner and salad plates, salad bowls, colanders, dry measuring cups, serving tray, chip and dip and condiment bowls (as seen in Spring 2014 LCBO magazine). Available in a rainbow of happy colours.

Silicone Suction lids by Viancin

Back by popular demand are the silicone suction lids by Viancin.

Leave the cling wrap behind and use these reusable lids instead.

Use on the stove top to keep steam in and reduce splatters.

Inspired by nature: Lilypad, Sunflower, Daisy and Hibiscus lids

The lids come in a few sizes and are heat resistant up to 428°F.
