Green Holiday Giveaway #19: Urban Lace | Recycled Bicycle Inner Tube Jewelry

Hello, Friends. I am sorry for the delay in getting the last two giveaways of the day up. The day just kind of got away from me, does that ever happen to you? Giveaway number nineteen is sponsored by Urban Lace Jewelry. They are giving one winner a fantastic recycled bicycle inner tube wrist cuff!

Urban Lace Jewelry specializes in making unique eco-friendly designer jewelry that is created from recycled bicycle inner tubes collected from local Portland bike shops. Urban Lace’s goal is to make high quality, high fashion, environmentally friendly products that people love to wear. Inner tubes are not only durable, flexible and waterproof, they can also be beautiful is the thinking at Urban Lace.

I love how Urban Lace Jewelry has taken something that would usually be tossed into the trash and gives it new life as something fantastic. The jewelry would look great paired with a cocktail dress this holiday season or dressed down with your jeans and tee. Either way, you will have a piece of jewelry that will have a high impact on everyone you meet and a low-impact on the environment!

Jump over to Urban Lace Jewelry and pick up a piece of jewelry for someone you love.

Green Holiday Giveaway #15: Naturopathica | Plant Cell Serum

The final giveaway of the day is sponsored by Naturopathica. They are giving the lucky winner a plant cell serum – perfect for making you look your best all holiday season long.

We love Naturopathica products at Casa de Sweet Greens! Mr. Sweet uses their shave cream and I am a huge fan of the Calendula Essential Hydrating Cream and the Pumpkin Purifying Enzyme Peel! Naturopathica eliminates harmful synthetics and skin irritants and adds clinically proven ingredients that provide real benefits, leaving your skin glowing!

Naturopathica’s plant cell serum is an ECOCERT certified organic concentrated serum that is designed to significantly slow down the aging of cells due to inflammation caused by UVA damage and oxidative stress. Really? What more could you ask for in a holiday gift this year?

If I won this giveaway, I think I would have to keep it for myself – it sounds like a product that I would really enjoy.
