orGLAMic - almost always organic, always glamorous!

Perch has a variety of ceramic offerings. From chandeliers to salt and pepper shakers, they are all examples of beautiful orGLAMic design. Hanging on a tree in the backyard, the birdfeeder pictured above is the perfect way to bring nature right outside your kitchen window. It is made out of low-fire ceramic, non-toxic glaze and hangs by a natural leather cord tanned with vegetable-based dyes. Click here to take a look at all the Brooklyn-based Perch products.

Dani’s ECO line has the most orGLAMic selection of soy wax candles and aromatic reed diffusers.  The candles are 100% biodegradable and toxin-free, so they won’t emit any toxins into your home.  In addition, the packaging is corn-based instead of plastic, and is biodegradable, compostable and easily turns into water, carbon dioxide and organic material.  Choose from the six essential oil blends, including clover, sandalwood, lemon, rose, red currant or fresh fir by clicking here.

Our last orGLAMic offering for this Father’s Day is the organic remote pocket pillow.  Just because dad is a couch potato doesn’t mean he can’t lounge in style.  These orGLAMic pillows have a sleek little pocket for dad’s remote and are handmade out of hemp and organic cotton.  I love that they are so simple yet a little cheeky.  Click here to buy these pillows for dad.

Appeal to the softer side of dad with a large, luxurious, organic blanket by Yumi and Laurie.  These throws are made from 100% certified organic cotton and bamboo.  They come in a ton of beautiful colors and patterns, but my orGLAMic favorite is the rich orange pictured above.  Best of all, the bamboo makes them naturally antimicrobial and excellent for people that have allergies.  Check out the entire line of orGLAMic luxury by clicking here.

Red Flag Desgin is a Vancouver-based company with tons of great gift ideas for dad.  While all of their products are made from locally sourced materials, the AUM line (Alternate Use Material) uses discarded materials from our uber-consumer and disposable society.  Their first AUM line is made from reclaimed sailcloth.  I like the shopper, pictured above, for dads because it’s a nice change from all the frilly ones that have come out with the recent canvas bag movement, but there are also great items like duffel bags and toiletry kits that your father will love.  Check out the entire orGLAMicproduct line by clicking here.

Nothing says Father’s Day than the good ol’ shirt.  This year, make an orGLAMic choice by buying of the organic offerings by Gilded Age.  I love the vintage meets preppy look of the Twain Rugby Polo pictured above, but this line has something for every father out there.  Gilded Age uses organic cotton in many of their products, and some of the unique natural dyes they use include volcanic mud dye, parchment, natural charcoal, tea, logwood, Japanese Alder and natural indigo.  Click here to pick something up for your dad.

J.R. Liggett’s Old Fashioned Shampoo is the perfect gift for any dad this Father’s Day, and will make any dad happy with it’s orGLAMic, upscale rustic look that I love so much.  The bar of soap is made from 100% natural oils, 100% biodegradable and had no animal or petroleum based byproducts in it.  Bar soap is the green way to go as there is minimal packaging and therefore it not only takes less resources to make, but also less waste ends up in the landfill.  Go ahead and throw in the orGLAMic wood drying rack, pictured above, for good measure.  Check out all the J.R. Liggett products by clicking here.

While, I usually try to go straight to the source when displaying my latest orGLAMic offering, 3r Living is too wonderful of a resource to ignore.  The east-coast based home decor and lifestyle store dedicated to “future friendly products” has a fabulous online shop just a click away.  Among the items that are hand chosen with an eye for organic and fair-traded items was one of my favorites, the utterly orGLAMic Bamboo Sushi Gift Set.  For more orGLAMic items, browse their entire collection here.

Bloembox offers a beautiful, eco-friendly gift giving alternative.  The tiny hand-wrapped paper boxes are adorned with hand-crafted silk flowers made to look like the real garden flowers. Each box is then filled with organic bulbs, organic lavender florets and organic rose petals harvested from fresh crops, and premium seeds.  The box is beautiful (no waste!) and the bulbs/seeds grow into a beautiful garden that continues to give for years to come.  Personally I think that these would be the perfect orGLAMic wedding favor.  Check out the gorgeous selection available here.

Cowgirl Creamery is an organic, sustainable dairy farm just north of San Francisco.  Their cheeses are superbly orGLAMic and made with love.  Now, just in time for summer picnics, Cowgirl Creamery is offering the Summer Cheese Club!  The three aged cheese selected for the months of June, July and August (Fromage Blanc, Clabbered Cottage Cheese and Creme Fraiche) are perfect accompaniments to the fresh produce available at your local farmers market this time of year.  Mmmmm!  Check out the wonderful selection of cheese available by clicking here.
