Earth Friendly Etsy: Pale Pink Recycled Inner Tube Journal

October 17, 2010 69

I love to journal my thoughts and ideas, you already know all about my journaling obsession, right? I have talked about here. I especially love to journal what I call Ebenisms because the things that Eben comes up with are priceless and I want to make sure that I will always remember them. I love to curl up on the sofa with a cup of tea and delve into the wise words of Eben, nothing makes me happier. Another thing that I love about journaling is the journal itself. I have all of my journals on my bookshelf and I love the diversity of colors and shapes and that all have been purchased somewhere special from many different locations that I have lived and experienced. The memory of where I purchased the journal is part of the fun and I make sure to write where and when I was when I bought the journal inside the cover. {just for fun} I also love journals that are made in an Earth friendly way or even better made from something old and used. This is why I love, love, love, this week’s Earth friendly Etsy shop, Pale Pink.

Pale Pink makes handmade recycled and upcycled bike inner tube notebooks and journals, bags, jewelry and accessories. Pale pink is owned by Larsen and located in Denmark. Larsen lives in an apartment in the middle of town with bicycle being the main mode of transpiration. Pale Pink’s Etsy shop is full of fab journals, wallets, decorative bobby pins and jewelry. My favorites are the journals {I would love to write in one} and the necklaces because they are so unique.
Larsen @ Pale Pink has been so lovely to offer ONE of my wonderful readers a fab inner tube journal to keep all your inter most thoughts and dreams.

    Hi,
    Love inner tube journals, they are fantastic! And I have to mention the little apple tree fabric notebook, it caught my eye and seemed soft and friendly and the perfect size for my messenger bag. Glad to discover their shop – thanks!

    Hi Jennie,
    You have wonderful giveaways. I would never have imagined making a journal from inner tubes. And yet I completely know how many of them would go to waste, (I biked my way thru college, and in Chicago, there’s a lot of spiky stuff on the roadways…)

    I love her journals made from the inner tubes, I especially like the purple one:
    http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=28294271

    I always seem to forget Etsy has sellers from all over the world, lovely to hear she’s from Denmark.

    Thank you for posting this giveaway, and have a lovely weekend,
