From Ian Somerhalder's FB page:


My wife's bag line is pretty incredible. I love them and the message. Wow. Not only are they made in the U.S., so by purchasing one you're supporting a local economy, but they're also made from recycled plastic from landfills and the ocean. If you're considering a holiday gift for someone, THIS is what you should be supporting because THIS is what will change the world. FreedomOfAnimals.com


These are not cheap - they begin at $280, but Ian explains it's because they are made in America. And they certainly do look like great quality.

For Glam Bombs and those with a bigger budget, Stella McCarthy, the designer daughter of Beatle Paul McCartney and his first wife Linda, is a vegan and so while she doesn't tout natural things on the whole, she doesn't use Fur, leather or feathers in any of her clothes. 

You can click around on the hundreds of fair trade offerings on the Hunger Site.

The Udon Noodle Bowl: for rice and veggies or soup and stews too, they are easy to grip and have a place for your chopsticks while you're sipping broth too. Elan McPherson designed these classy vessels, that come in four handsome colors. (Great for the guy who has everything too). They are big and deep (5" H x 5.5" Diameter; 22 oz.) so helps keep contents from cooling too soon - but probably not for kids. Click the link to see a pic of a person holding one for size. Dishwasher safe. I'm getting these!  $36 at Uncommon Goods

Travel Pouches - can be used for so many different things.

Beautiful, durable, washable and made to last many miles.
