Fair Trade and Tree-Free

Do you love gifting as much as I do? Well, it has never felt better with magical tree-free greetings.

Production of Tree-Free paper uses less water, no chlorine or harmful chemicals, & requires less energy. Tree-Free uses paper from sustainably harvested sources like kenaf, sugar cane, and bamboo, as well as from post-consumer recycled paper. The gift cards are so charming. The envelopes are as beautiful as the joy inside!

So try on those wings and look. This season I am also loving the magical feeling of Rene Geneva fair trade designs. This beautiful baby corset, is a favorite of her bridal corsets. Featured on the runway recently at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week 2008, it is made from special HempSilk with Hemp Twill lining.
