MyEARTH360 ~ It’s in the Bag! {Review & Giveaway #9}
MyEARTH360 began from a mother’s concern over the amount of waste generated at her son’s school from a water bottle policy and extra curricular activities. She took it upon herself to create a campaign featuring kid friendly reusable water bottles featuring the mantra, I Count for My Earth. The program has been a hit in getting the green message to kids and became the starting block for myEarth360. Visit I Count for My Earth to find out more about this green campaign for schools.
MyEARTH360 has plenty of eco friendly handbags to choose from and every red and green bag sold will plant a tree! l got the chance to check out the English Retreads Cruiser. If you aren’t already familiar with the company English Retreads, these bags are actually made from used inner tubes supplied by truck stops. They are fashionable, extremely durable and oh so easy on your conscious knowing your bag is made from re-purposed material.
The cruiser is a smaller sized bag that easily fits your essentials but you won’t be weighed down with a lot extra. My favorite features is how comfortably it fits on my shoulder the overall trendy look. Because of what this bag is made of, I’m sure it comes as no surprise that there are no extra pockets or organization within the bag although there is a sturdy snap in the center to keep your contents inside. Because it doesn’t hold a lot I found it wasn’t as necessary anyway.
The English Retreads Cruiser is the perfect bag for day or night and is sure to draw attention! To keep it looking new, simply clean it with Armor All or other car cleaner. If you like this, be sure to check out the other English Retreads bags available at MyEARTH360.
If you are looking for an everyday bag this ecoist Jute Handbag might be just the thing for you! Would you believe this modern and simplistic quilted bag is made from vegetable fiber and hand dyed in 100% vegetable products? I didn’t even know that was possible!
Check out this bright and fun green ecoist Diva Clutch. Wouldn’t this be perfect for a night on the town or just dinner with friends? You’ll find two different sized weaves which create this sleek look! It is actually handmade from recycled wrappers and food packages. Can you believe it? This clutch features a magnetic close and is self lined.
DISCOUNT: Receive a 15% discount at MyEARTH360 by entering BABYLOVING at checkout! Any of the handbags available from MyEARTH360 would make a great gift for the environmentally conscious diva in your life. But hurry, this offer expires November 25th.

The Bella Top is also cute. This clutch fits my style perfectly! I love green and funky, unique items. This is great
i’ve always wanted a water purification system. we’ve been having a problem with the copper from our pipes leaching into our water. we’ve been filtering every drop of water we use through a pitcher filter, but a whole system would be a dream!
i just signed the “end water poverty petition” on the myearth360 blog. what an incredible, and yet so simple, cause to fight for. i have been studying breastfeeding counseling, and learned a lot of these statistics related to lack of clean (or any) water, and how families struggle to survive. now that we know, how can it not stir us to action? what a fantastic site myearth360 is running!

I love the ecoist – The Daily purse in the Newspaper color. I have writers and journalists in the family who would love this.
I love the ecoist – Bracelet in Confetti!! I LOVE that its a great conversation starter about ways to help the environment… lets be honest. Who’s going to see that bracelet and NOT ask about it?
I would love to have the Kid Basix Safe Sippy. I am so concerned with all of this talk about the BPA in plastic and have tried buying as many sippies as possible that do not have this added.
They have a lot of cute recycled gift wrap. I like the Bubbly pattern!

I would like to have the SIGG Thermal Trend 1.0L Thermos, I am on the run alot with our scouts and the big joke is me stopping to grab a cup of coffee. The thermos would come in handy and save me money. I can make my own coffee and save on the paper cups that I am throwing away that end up in a dump.
