Greener office supplies - what's your favorite source?

While we recommend the Sustainable Group for greener office supplies, we know there are tons of options available. Do you have a favorite?

Personally, I like to take the reams of paper sent home from my son's school and fashion them into makeshift notepads  - only requires folding and cutting in quarters and a single staple. 100% recycled and free!

Let us know your tips and sources for greener office supplies in comments. As always, we love to hear from our readers.

Greener options for home cleaning products

As we recently reported in our review Clean Breakthrough: Blissful Home makes cleaning appealing, Blissful Home products both work well, and enhance the dreaded cleaning experience.

As we discussed in the review, the ingredients in Blissful Home products are very simple. Enough so that you might be tempted to make your own. I have met many people over the years who prefer to make their own cleaning products - from laundry soap to shower scrub - using vinegar, baking soda, and other ingredients that you can readily find in a grocery store.

Do you have any personal favorites for greener cleaning products? Let us know in comments to this blog post.
