Summer means picnics, and picnics mean wine! Well, okay -- picnics mean an awful lot of good things, like family and fun and memories and sunshine. But for you wine-drinkers, a nice Rosé or Prosecco can have its own special place in a pi…
It used to be that clothes and gifts made from recycled materials compromised on style. But these days, companies are finding creative ways to make fabulous products using resources we already have, making a huge, positive impact on the …
Some days are just...yeah. That. You know what I mean. And maybe a glass of wine will help, or maybe even an empty one --at least if they're these fantastic Rough Day Wine Glasses . Come on, you know you want to laugh. They're like the p…
It's "please drink more water, kids" season around here. But you know that feeling at the end of the day when there are little stacks of drinking glasses filling the dishwasher or sink because each of your kids was thirsty and used a new…
I'm currently trying to stage a ban on plastic (probably not ideal for our health) and paper (definitely not ideal for the environment) cups from our household. So when I saw the newest launch from Lifefactory -- durable drinking glasses…

Yes, I know that you can use a Sharpie to scribble kids' names on their drink cups at birthday parties. But for a more stylish option, consider the reusable drink stickers from clinQs . My favorites for kids are the colorful Happy Birthd…
