When it comes to stylish, eco-friendly home textiles, the first company that always comes to mind for me is Amenity. I can always rely on them to deliver flawless, nature-inspired style, and I never have to question their commitment to the environment. So when I learned that they are gearing up to debut their new fall collection, I couldn’t wait to share that news. I don’t have photos yet, but I am willing to bet it’s going to be fabulous!
To make way for the new collection, Amenity is having a huge sale on some of their older designs, including their hemp pillow collection. The ladies at Amenity were also kind enough to send me one of their hemp pillows to review. Given that I’ve had my eye on them for a while, I jumped at the chance to see a pillow in person, and it did not disappoint.
Amenity’s signature is their bold, graphic prints, and I received the Trail Pillow in silver. I have one word to describe it: Glam! I love this pillow! You can see it at top staged on my yard sale chair with an equally pretty silver, organic cotton purse I bought myself for Christmas last year. And above, it’s happily at home on my bed with two other pillows that are also eco-friendly. It is a great way to balance the silver from our bedside lamps.
Why It’s Green:
- Made of 55% Hemp, 45% Certified Organic Cotton fabric
- Printed with non-toxic, water-based dyes
- Printed and sewn locally in Los Angeles.
- Eco-fill fiber generated from spun recycled bottles
Price: $29-99 You can also get an additional 40% off their already low sale prices with coupon code “EXTRA40.” Exp. 8/1/10
