Shop Austin Hip Sponsors are going green, being natural and feeling cheeky...
Little Pond, with the tag line, "Designs for Green Living" is on a mission to bring the green of the world to the interior of your home! Having green, eco-friendly interior decor and furniture is possible, and it doesn't stop with hemp linen.... Try out their
luxurious fabrics made with environmental awareness and sensitivity, or
new furniture made from non-toxic fabrics, soy based foams and certified wood. Maybe years gone by is your interior vibe, if so, you can choose from their
raw vintage or
upcycled collection.
Little Pond
started out of a desire to push the manufacturing industry into providing healthier options for us - free of toxins, chemicals and allergens, but it's hard for consumers to know who to trust, or have time to research the validity of manufacturers' claims of "non-toxic" or "green" fabrics and furniture. With a desire to help consumers navigate this emerging green continuum, Rebekah Gainsley of Little Pond wants to keep it simple - shop at
Little Pond and you can be assured it's safe for you, your children, your home and your world! You can also contract with them for
services such as painting or staging.

From green to all natural, or isn't that along the same continuum as well?
Texas Natural Supply is a one-of-a-kind business, as in they are one of a very few, if not the only ones in the U.S. that ONLY sell raw, all natural materials and ingredients for personal body care products - lotions, soaps, cosmetics, etc... This also means the sources for all their
herbs,
botanicals,
spices,
oils, etc... are all natural as well.
Texas Natural Supply also offers formulation, consulting, private labeling, and everything in between, for small businesses who wish to formulate their own brand of personal care products - maybe I see a Lone Star Ladies Blue eyeshadow in my future.... (80s flashback!) Their in-house commercial kitchen facility is available for manufacturing and packaging of food and nutrional supplements, and they are registered with the FDA and EPA. Hollie Mulhaupt, owner and registered nurse, explains it is an extra layer of security that soon will be required of all makers of personal care body products. You can feel safe that
Texas Natural Supply has your body covered, naturally, because they have done the research, navigation, supplying and registering so you don't have to!
