earth goddess

man, i feel like i've been gone for months. i hope you all had fantastic 4th of july weekends and enjoyed your day off. ac and i had a blast in virginia and, aside from a horrendous travel experience yesterday, are back now, rested and tanned. so, that said...i'm back in the saddle again...

i'm just gonna dive right in because after a weekend at the beach, i'm feelin all things earthy and beachy. IIKH is a ny store that carries a whole bevy of great eco products. i'm gonna focus on the home stuff, but if you're looking for body and bath products, they've got what you need on that end too.

IIKH is located on west 17th street in ny, but they've got a great little online boutique too (not super slick looking, but it works just fine). in my opinion, the cream of the iikh crop is the tableware collection. i saw a pair of enamel serving tongs they carry in lucky magazine this weekend and just had to check out the rest of the goods. from mirrors and placemats to seating cubes and glasses, IIKH has the whole earthy look down pat. everything they carry oozes eco-ness and brings nature right into your home. most of their products are wooden or are made of a natural material- they're really great pieces for bringing a bit of the outside in. while the prices range from affordable to down right outrageous, there are plenty of pieces you can pick up that won't break the bank. my favorite pieces range from around $15 to $100.

you can find more info on all things IIKH right here. thanks to lucky magazine for pointing out their great enamel serving tongs.
