{product+love} The Tin Is In

I love, love, love this colorful, vintage-inspired, tin dinnerware collection by VivaTerra; a company whose offerings are quite lovely and all eco sensitive. Listen to how completely charming their product description is "Long before paper plates and horseless carriages appeared on the scene, our picnic-loving ancestors set out for their favorite meadow carrying lightweight, reusable tinware. We're re-introducing an updated version for patio, deck or grass." (ranging in price from $29-$52) Couldn't have said it better!

Recycled Living

Loll Designs is a hip furniture company I learned about over the weekend after sifting through interesting outdoor decor resources. Founded in 2005, Loll specializes in the use of recycled materials to make affordable, yet modern, long lasting and no maintenance outdoor furniture. Imagine the number of plastic jugs that aren't clogging up your local landfill but instead have been transformed into chic recyclable furniture like the Cricket Chairs ($230/each) and Alfresco Table ($555) seen above. Now that is pretty hip (and responsible) in my book.
