Halloween Costumes...Part 1

We wanted to show you a few of the costumes that we found this year that we thought were great. Remember, these are not the most affordable costumes...but they might give you a good idea for a costume if you don't want to buy these exact ones! We will be showing you more affordable ones in "Part 2" next week. If you are interested in knowing more about these, you can click on them but we just thought they were really cute. The dog one really cracked us up. Hope you are all thinking outside of the box this year for your kid's costumes...or even your own. Remember, if you dress up as a Chipotle Burrito, you might win a free burrito! (That is what they did last year. Maybe I will post pictures of our burrito costume in the next post. Stay tuned.)

Looking for a great Oganic & Earth Friendly Store?

We want to tell you about some of our favorite Organic online stores that we have been working with over the past year.

The first one is www.zoebonline.com. Valerie at Zoe b has been a customer as well as a wholesale representative for our Organic and now Eco-friendly Binkie Bungees. We really enjoy working with her and have learned a lot about the organic world in the process of working with her.

Here is a bit of the "about me" from www.zoebonline.com:

It's easy being green.

I am a "green" mom, not an eco-evangelist but a mom who thinks we need to take care of our planet for the sake of our children. It makes sense, it is becoming easier to make green choices in your day to day life.

That's how Zoë b Organic started. Most products you can find on our website are either designed by me or products i have tested and use everyday.

Why go organic?

Though you may be unaware of it, growing cotton uses more pesticides and synthetic fertilizers than any other crop (50 million pounds of pesticides annually in the U.S. alone.) The pesticides used on cotton harm people, wildlife, and the environment. They can poison farm workers (especially in developing countries), drift into neighboring communities, contaminate the ground and surface water, and kill beneficial insects.

Our daughter Zoë was my inspiration for starting my own company. She,Lucas and our newborn daughter Sophie (born in November 2007) continue to inspire me every day. Thanks to my husband John for his support. I could not do this without him.
