Earth Friendly Etsy: Chakra Pennywhistle Organic Textile Giveaway

Back for another addition of Earth Friendly Etsy is one of my favorite Etsy shops Chakra Pennywhistle. You will remember Chakra Pennywhistle as the adorable circle the date patch that debuted on Sweet Greens back in April. You will also remember that Chakra Pennywhistle is a beautiful collection that Rikkianne has created by creating something new out of something old.

Rikkianne is a mother to a beautiful little girl named Mia who shares her mother’s love for thrifting and finding beautiful things – a fellow thrifter, be still my heart. Rikkianne is very passionate about doing her part to create a sustainable future and she does so by using Eco-friendly and vintage materials. She really enjoys using natural materials and one of her favorite quotes about organic farming really sums this up. “Organic farming is rediscovering old techniques and applying them with a new plough” by Rhea Pepper.

This week I want to showcase Chakra Pennywhistle’s Organic Collection. The Organic Collection is a fabulous pillow collection that consists of original hand drawn designs printed on organic cotton twill. Each pillow is stuffed with raw organic cotton and sewn with organic cotton thread. The designs are so lovely, you will want one of each. My favorites are the little modern birds and tulips.

Again, Rikkianne @ Chakra Pennywhistle has been super lovely to offer ONE of my readers a dainty, simple, handmade Tassel Pillow. This is a sweet accent pillow size 12″ wide by 6″ tall. Stay tuned, Rikkianne @ Chakra Pennywhistle will be a special Earth friendly guest blogger on Sweet Greens in the near future. {giggles}

  44. Sarah July 30, 2009 at 2:30 pm #

    Yay! I love that tassel pillow and all of Rikkianne’s creations!

    My favorite of her pillows is the “wreath” pillow, which I have been covetting for a long while. It reminds me of an old quilt applique! Also, in the picture of it on Etsy, you can see a vintage cross stitched silhouette in the background which I am selling currently in my store. Cool!

    I follow both blogs, chakra pennywhistle and sweet greens and am working on twittering about the blog giveaway right now (my twitter’s acting up, nooooo)

    I will also post something on facebook and become a fan of sweet greens there.

  45. Polar Bear Creations July 30, 2009 at 2:33 pm #

    My favorite would be the the 12 x 6 red tulip pillow and the tassel pillow!

    I love all of your bags, I think you are really talented and wish that I could do something creative like that, but I haven’t found what I am good at yet. I’m still trying. Anyways, my second favorite pillow are the tulips, they remind me of my Nana, they were her favorite flower. However, I fell in love with the pillow with the little modern birds. It made me smile as soon as I saw it and I find myself under a lot of stress lately with few reasons to smile. If I had that pillow I know it would cheer me up every-time I saw it. I would also keep it in a place where I could share it with all of my guests. I know they would appreciate it as well.
