Right here, and free!
J’adooooore cette affiche pour le Jour de la Terre qui aura lieu le 22 avril!
Le concept, le visuel, la réalisation, les couleurs, j’aime tout! Le genre de pièce qui me fait souhaiter que mon nom était en dessous! haha!
Ceci dit, autant que je n’ai rien contre un “Jour de la Terre” du tout, ça me [...]
There are so many occasions in which people say they “need” cutlery that is disposable. Many of them are not so good reasons in my world (home parties and picnics), others are sometimes logical (like for some 200 people traitor wedding feast for example, although some companies do rent cutlery that they will actually [...]
Meet Joodito.
Wonderful and playful shapes, great various textures and materials, super smart and pretty details. Plus those fabulous over sized collars I am so in love with!
What could be better than that, you ask? Well, being all one of a kind and all made with recycled fabrics, of course!

• “Deux fois plus absorbante (que les litières d’argile)”
Absolument, c’est totalement vrai et j’en suis surprise!! Une [...]

La banque TD veut être carboneutre d’ici 2010. (Lire ici) TD est ma banque en fait, et depuis quelques mois je vois clairement la direction plus verte et plus impliquée socialement de TD. Finalement, j’ai fait le bon choix de [...]
It always hurts me when I go grocery shopping and have to use plastic bags to put my veggies and fruit in. I’m thinking: I make efforts, I have 7 cotton bags which usually gets everything in, and then I go and use produce bags because there are no alternatives. I reuse them, like for [...]

La Ville de Montréal a présenté hier l’idée retenue pour remplacer les bacs verts de recyclage.
Conceptualisé pas Claude Mauffette, le nouveau bac se transporte à une main, a une capacité de 70 litres et se ferme complètement sur lui-même (enfin, les matières légères ne seront pas exposées au vent!). Celui-ci devrait en théorie voir le [...]
Ever had to write a phone number super quick while listening to your answering machine? Or having to just write down 2-3 ingredients in order to not forget it later at the groceries? Or for myself, wanting to write a RGB code that I will use 20 times on a project in the next hour? [...]
