Green Your Bedroom Space

Consumerism now takes a new level

Consumerism now takes a new level. Eco products had been had been steadily gaining patronage. Manufacturers are now producing eco-friendly product as a pact to help preserve the nature. Eco-furniture, such as bedroom furniture uses out of recycled materials, such as wood from old homes, factories or resurrected products that were found at the bottom of riverbeds and lakes.

Below are the simple ways that you can do, yet yields big results:

Switch natural cleaners such as baking soda and vinegar when washing your sheets and curtains. They effectively remove some of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that are present in commercial cleaners.

Make sure that your linens are made from organic cotton. Typical linens are made of conventional cottons that utilized 25% of worlds insecticide use. Linen manufacturers uses dyes derived from petroleum. It clings to the sheets, towels and pillowcases which you often snuggle while asleep.

Refurbish your old platform bed to suit your new tastes. A fresh coat of paint or some new fabric can lend a new look to old stuff, and you wont have to spend much or feel guilty for throwing out something just because you got tired of it.

Let your air conditioners rest and try natural air flow. Open windows on opposite sides of the room or, if they are all on one side, set up a fan near the opposite wall to direct the air flow. This air motion allows stale air to dissipate in your room.

Install super-efficient bulbs wherever possible. Compact Fluorescent Lamp or CFL, LED and Halogen are wise the choice. Look for the Energy Star label in your lighting fixtures and electric appliances.

With the above mention ways, we can impact the crusade for green revolution. From the choice of cleaners that you use, to platform beds we are sleeping with, and the household lighting we are using. Going green doesnt have to mean an end to your decorating fetish, but you might need to shift your thinking a bit to accommodate a post-consumerism attitude and eco-friendly designs.
