Planet friendly dressing for Kiah & I is easy, we just wear 2nd hand or upcycled (skirt to dress, dress to skirt, jumper to trousers etc.) but Ray is a whole other story. Not a lot of plain black t-shirts in my local charity shops. I was buying Hemp t-shirts, but it isn't exactly cutting down the product miles buying shirts from China. So I was very happy to find similarly priced locally made shirts from a non-irrigated organic cotton farm in NSW. Here is the blurb from the site:The cotton in our ‘Certton’ range of t-shirts is grown in Narrabri, NSW Australia. This cotton is certified organic by the BFA. Certified organic cotton is farmed without the use of pesticides, genetically modified seed or synthetic fertilizers. The soil is built up over the years to retain moisture and fungus enabling in our case the organic cotton to prosper on a dry land (non-irrigated) farm.
They look pretty good too, better than I expected from the product pictures. Link: Organic Cotton Advantage.

I came across a great site called Etsy.com where you can buy and sell homemade crafts.
For those into all things DIY & funky craft some other great resources are Crafster, Readymade Mag's forums, Make Zine's Blog and Knitty.com.

 8th grade students from Lockhart Middle School in Orlando, Fl. USA painted a chair inspired by one of my monkey pics. They did a great job as you can see from the front and side view.

Friday November 26 is Buy Nothing Day for the US
Saturday November 27 is Buy Nothing Day for the UK. You can use it as a warm up for Buy nothing Christmas to really take a break from mad-cap consumerism.

I will be upgrading the server that runs Onemoremonkey, Lilypie and Daisypath on Sunday 21st November from 8pm my time (5am Saturday 20th November American Eastern Standard time). So, the site will be up and down for about an hour from then.
