Sample Products in the BL*ink store:
Inside the “Brazilian Rainforest Tube” for $20 will be:
A t-shirt and the certificate for planting a tree by various organizations and locations along with a “Certificate of Planting” (suitable for framing), location information with photographs and history of the location.
We will also have different designs for each location. A rainforest in Asia will have an Asian inspired t-shirt.
There will be items for various Local, National and International causes.
Some of those items are:
· One of my favorite items is the Favela Bracelet from Rio, this item is a composite of colorful photos of the favela slums in Rio encased in biodegradable resin with the proceeds going to the favela schools.
· Another item is the elephant dung paper Stationary from Vietnam that supports elephant rehabilitation.
