I can’t help it, I’m a sucker for anything recycled. I just love the thought of trash being reincarnated into something new and useful, which is why I was taken by these simple (and stylish) little sticky notes. Great as page markers I wish they were bigger so I could replace Post-Its.

While we’re on the subject of stickies and Post-It’s, have you heard about the health issues one town in Minnesota is experiencing because of polluted water from 3M? The water quality for Lake Elmo had extremely high levels of PFC’s, but 3M is claiming the chemical is not harmful. According to the Wall Street Journal,
3M was accused of disposing perfluorochemicals, or PFCs, by burying them in the ground and piping them into surface water, which then flowed into the Mississippi River.
Very sad, but sadly not surprising. Check out Change.org to sign a petition in support of the lawsuit.
