I get excited about things that may seem rather unexciting to others. Like this new servingware range from Wheel & Barrow Homewares that has me smiling…
Why, you may ask? Well, there is just one simple reason:
This new range is made from the fabulously renewable natural material of bamboo and degrades within a year of it being tossed away, making it pollution-less. Yep, this is all it takes for me to get very, very excited.
Wheel & Barrow has been one of my favourite stores for sourcing servingware while I’ve been styling in Sydney over the last few years. So I’m thrilled to hear they have this new range on their shelves. Bravo Wheel & Barrow!

That is a great invention!

Oh my EPO (Environmental Protection Officer) brother would hyperventilate over this… next birthday present for sure. Question – does it degrade within a year of purchase?… while it’s still on the shelves? Interesting to see how it holds up in water! How do they create such marvellous concepts? Love Wheel and Barrow even more now..if that’s possible. A-M xx

Hurray for bamboo! Amazing how it can be shaped into rugs, floors, baby’s blankets and more.

yes, yes, this makes me happy too. i wish everything i buy could be as beautiful and environmentally friendly.
i wish there was a CHIC blog (or site) out there focusing exclusively on lovely, affordable eco-friendly finds like this, from clothing & accessories to housewares & furniture.
