If you’ve ever watched a home decorating show, from Trading Spaces to (my favorite) Candice Olsen’s Divine Design, you know that what they show you is the big stuff — the selection of the furniture and wall color, fabrics, lighting, and flooring, fireplace materials, etc. When you see a finished room, however, it would look pretty empty with just that stuff in it. What makes a room look complete is the little things. Those tiny details like fresh flowers in a vase or lit candles in the center of a table. Add these great recycled letters from Urban Outfitters to your list of finishing accessories.
They are made of recycled metal, and, as you can see from the photo, used packaging and printed materials. They are available in a variety of styles and colors, so while you can pick the letters you want, you never know what you’re going to get in terms of style. Above, I put together my favorite letters, “GYD”, as in Green Your Decor. Not so subtle, huh?
Why It’s Green:
- Made of recycled materials, including metal and used printed materials and packaging
Price: $8/ea.

I’m Jennae Petersen, and I’m a lot of things. A mother, a graphic artist, a connosieur of beautiful interiors and a purveyor of all things design. Green Your Decor was borne of frustration in my attempts to find eco-friendly housewares that were also beautiful, and inspiration to do something to reduce my own carbon footprint and help others do the same in a beautiful way.

I love Candice, too. I would love to have her over to my house.
