The NanaWall systems are sleek operable glass walls custom designed to showcase amazing views, give homeowners the ability to utilize more space, and are energy efficient by providing natural daylight and ventilation. It may not look like a conventional wall, but it’s as sturdy as any other. NanaWall systems are built to withstand air infiltration, water penetration, forced entry, disturbing acoustics and hurricanes. Bring it on Mother Nature, these walls were built to last.  So next time you get the urge to tear down a wall, harness the flexibility and efficiency of large opening glass walls… just don’t be the girl who runs into the glass at a party.

Love what you saw in the closet? Check out e-Drop-Off express on eBay to see the pre-owned good currently up for auction. Or maybe you’re in the market for a new stylish, eco-friendly washer and dryer? In any case, everyone should give the cradle-to-cradle certified laundry detergent a try for a few loads – you’ll be impressed to see how so little can go so far!

The goal of the apparel line (aside from making you look sharp whether on or off the green) is to ensure that every person that plays a role in producing the clothing has a better life because of Tompkins Point business. Founder Scott Leeder, fondly known as an “enlightened capitalist” is paving the way with this new business model and wants you to experience the fashionable shirts for yourself – so he’s GIVING AWAY 3 shirts to ecofabulous readers this week.

Here’s what you need to do for a chance at snagging one: First, make sure you’re signed up as an ecofabulous subscriber, then head on over to the Tompkins Point Apparel Fan Page on Facebook and add yourself. Then pick out your color and size and wait for an email next week when we draw three lucky winners!

On our quest to find the most eco and fabulous solution to our liquid grape-on-the-go desires, we kept coming back to govino – the sleek design and thumb grip spot just can’t be beat. Made of BPA-free, shatterproof, reusable and recyclable plastic (#1) the govino is way better than using a disposable red plastic cup (and much more elegant).

While we would prefer that the plastic be made from recycled material, or something like stainless steel that is highly recycled (we found these glasses but they are not quite as chic), the idea is that you would use these glasses over and over and over again, and that eventually they would have a second life after recycling (4 glasses for $11.95).

Perfectly paired with an eco-friendly picnic box for a romantic outdoor wine-and-dine combo.

The show has a “Modern Wedding” theme, perfect for urging the industry to eliminate blood diamonds and dirty gold mining! Vote now and make it known that American consumers want wedding rings that not only symbolize love, but are also made with it.
