The Next Evolution of Ethical Shopping

ty and lumi organics is among the best of the best when it comes to products that do good.

Ethical Ocean is one of our favorite places online to find all kinds of eco-friendly, cruelty-free and socially-minded products. ty and lumi organics is proud to be part of this community of do-gooders, and now more so than ever.

Just last week Ethical Ocean made the bold move of cutting a third of its catalog, deciding they no longer wanted to be the biggest online store for ethical products, but instead to be the destination for best in class ethical products – ones that are both great quality and that genuinely do good for the world. We’re proud that ty and lumi organics is part of this exclusive group of brands that are all committed to doing good with the products they sell.

Check out the ty and lumi organics shop on Ethical Ocean. When you join the community and invite friends you’ll earn credits you can use to save on our products!

The Pre Emmy Boom Boom Room

Anna Ortiz

Well... we had quite the adventure on our way to LA for the Pre Emmy Boom Boom Room.  We were held up at the border for almost two hours and missed our flight.  Since we were departing from a small airport in Bellingham, Washington, we did not have the option of taking another flight that day to LA.  Instead, we had to fly to Las Vegas and drive 5 hours to LA.

The fact that we had been traveling for 20 hours (more than triple the time it should have taken!!), had barely slept in two days and had my five month old daughter with us did not take away from the excitement of our exclusive invitation to the Pre Emmy Boom Boom Room.  The Pre Emmy Boom Boom Room is a private gifting suite for celebrities.  We were thrilled at the opportunity to show our much loved ty and lumi oganics products to stars such as Samantha Harris from Entertainment Tonight, Sarah Drew from Grey's Anatomy, Nicole Sullivan from $#*! My Dad Says, Ana Ortiz from Ugly Betty, Nia Long from Chase, Drew Powell from Straw Dogs, Christie Lynn Smith from Weeds, Thomas Ian Nicholas from American Pie, Ian Ziering from Beverley Hills 90210, Lindsay Price from Lipstick Jungle and many more.

Great Green Gift Ideas

This Christmas take some stress out of the holiday season by shopping online.  Shopping online is fun, easy and it reduces your carbon footprint!  Here are some of my favourite websites and products.

Lavish and Lime is an online store based in Vancouver, British Columbia that focuses on contemporary eco-friendly products to help you live life a little greener.  They have fabulous non-toxic art supplies for kids.  My boys love their Natural Rock Crayons and Recycled Worm Crayons.  These items are priced at $9.50 and $13.50 and are great stocking stuffers.  Find them at www.lavishandlime.com.

Kippo Kids is an online store based in British Columbia.  They offer a mix of products that include eco-friendly, handmade, organic, and Made in Canada items.  Their products are in line with contemporary trends and are superior quality.  I love their great selection of puzzles.  If you are tired of your children's puzzle boxes falling apart, you will love these too!  My favourites are the Djeco puzzles which come in sturdy silhouette boxes that stand up.  They come in Cows on the Farm, Mummy Rabbit's Pie, Panda, Pirates, Knights and Ballerina.  Find them at www.kippokids.com.

Bugalug is based in Calgary, Alberta and offers a collection of accessories for baby, toddlers and girls.  Their products are non-toxic and lead-free, their hair accessories contain one of a kind non-slip grip and they are made in Canada.  I love the modern ribbon they use on their Non-Slip Clips and I especially LOVE their Cool Cuffs for Boys.  As a mother of two boys, I know how hard it is to find funky items for boys.  I was thrilled to find Bugalug!  The Skull Cuff and Flames Cuff will be in my boys' stockings this Christmas.  Shhhhhh!  Find them at www.bugalugbaby.com.

Oh, and remember, you can always find unique, modern and safe gift ideas for baby at www.tyandlumi.com.  Happy Internet shopping!
