Thanks to all of the fine folks who entered the Five Bamboo giveaway! We used a random number generator to pick a winner from the 48 entries, and the winner is…
Vegan fashion is not always eco-friendly, so I’m always excited to run across a company that offers vegan clothing that’s cute to boot! Ecolissa definitely fits the bill.
Cellulite. We all have it, hate it, and can’t seem to get rid of it. It is true, women of all shapes and sizes are plagued by dimply skin. So, what is it and how do you make it look better?
What if you could avoid carcinogenic toxins, such as toluene, formaldehyde and Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP), which are found in most nail polishes, AND not smell your nail polish at all? Oh yea, and have ingredients that are at least 95% organic.

Hi there! I'm Becky Striepe, a green crafter and vegan foodie living in Atlanta, Georgia with my husband and two cats. My mission is to make eco-friendly crafts and vegan food accessible to anyone who wants to give them a go.
Founder/Editor of OrganicBeautySource.com online directory of nontoxic organic beauty products.
Safe cosmetics advocate, writer, researcher.
Mother of two little environmentalists who can already spot a toxic product when they see one.
I remember crafting when I was younger, but I didn't really start again until I was in my 20's. Now that I have, I can't imagine turning back! I live in Chicago, IL with my husband and 2 kitties. Embroidery is my top craft (at the moment) but I also love paper crafting, clay work, using power tools, and re-imagining ordinary thrift store finds into fun projects.
I’m a twenty something who got caught up in the stories of people, and, while caught on their stories, made a commitment to helping change their lives.
It took awhile to figure out where I was going to land, and how I was going to do it, but, post six transfers, 15 moves and five trips overseas, I decided to take my journalism degree out on a limb, and create a social enterprise that would not only open the doors for me to help Ugandan women struggling from the effects of AIDS and abuse, but would allow me to write about what I really care about: people.
