Looking for an eco-friendly alternative to a fluffy shag rug? Then try this Recycled T-Shirt Rug ($48) from Etsy seller Talkingsquid. I love the deep navy blue hue of this particular area rug, but if blue's not your bag, Talkingsquid makes these rugs in a variety of colors and sizes.

New York City designer Alexandra Ferguson creates gorgeous, eco-friendly pillows that draw inspiration from eras past as well as the modern age. Her sophisticated felt silhouettes are appliqued onto throw pillows made from recycled plastic water bottles (don't worry, they still feel soft and cozy). I'm taken with the Pink Poppy Recycled Felt Pillow ($65), but there are plenty more that have caught my eye.

Indoor/outdoor rugs can add instant picnicking or dining space to your deck or backyard. They're also super kid-friendly, since they don't absorb stains. If you're considering adding one to your outdoor space, look for one that's made from recycled content.

These trendy pillows are anything but sad sacks. Like Danny Seo's recycled feed bag pillow, these chic throws are crafted from old rice bags and grain sacks, or at least made to look like they are.
Some are super colorful, like the Urban Outfitters Recycled Rice Sack Pillow ($20).

November is an ideal month for lighting a fire in your fireplace. A crackling fire adds a cozy ambiance to a dinner party, and it's also a perfect way to kick back and enjoy a romantic evening with your honey. Nobody likes to fuss with getting a fire started, though, especially when you're entertaining guests.
