Sustainable Style Trends for Your Home

When it comes to incorporating sustainability in everyday living, we just have to get creative in our approach. Sustainability goes hand in hand with style. Eco-friendly décor can also be budget-friendly, artistic, and art-deco themed. There are many organizations making recycled furniture out of recycled plastic bottles, wood scraps, etc. Like you can get plastic recycled rugs to put in your living room. If you are looking for some eco-friendly antique home décor, check out these tips to be innovative about home furnishings:

Sustainable wooden furniture and cement craft looks rustic and organic. Buy furniture made from recycled and sustainably harvested wood. If you want to keep it minimalistic, choose environment wood furniture at a much lower cost. Jute rugs, hand-woven carpet made with cotton or jute looks beautiful. Paint your entire home with sustainable paints, without the toxic chemicals and fumes. There are a few companies offering sustainable painting solutions for houses and commercial properties. These days tiles are used to make beautiful decorative patterns on walls and floors. Recycled tiles are repurposed from scrap pieces of tiles. Use recycled tiles on a mosaic pattern for a wall in your home. Natural sunlight is the best source of light to brighten up any space. Glass paneling and skylights are a great way to allow daylight to stream inside the office. You can also cut down on your electricity usage and save energy by using natural lighting. Refrain from using plastic bags, cutlery or containers. Use bio-degradable tissue instead of paper tissue. Recycled tissue paper helps to save our environment and reduce wastage. Indoor plants add a fresh touch to an office space or home. Choose plants like palms, peace lily, succulents, fern, ficus, etc. Make sure to put plants in waterproof pots to avoid spillage of soil and water on the floor. Plastic dishware and containers are harmful for health. Even BPA-free plastic has some health hazards. So, consider ceramic dishware and cutlery to store food. Ceramics also come at a fraction of a cost compared to fine china. Get some colorful ceramic earthen pots, dishes, bowls and cutlery for the pantry. Jute and bamboo are versatile as décor and storage items. Put a jute basket with some fresh fruits and nuts on the office snack counter. Use bamboo pen stands and stationery holders for eco-friendly options. If you have a big patio, you can purchase some bamboo chairs and chaise lounges.

Start doing your bit to a sustainable living by using eco-friendly products, and furnishings.
