Livingreen: Green shopping in Culver City

I did not win the eco-friendly holiday tree at the Livingreen raffle last night. :(

However, everyone who bought 10 raffle tickets -- proceeds went to Habitat for Humanity -- got a nice lil shwag bag with everything from an LED nightlight to a hemp potholder. :)

And I got a bunch of holiday gift ideas. If you're going to be in Culver City anytime soon, stop by this eco-friendly home and materials store for inspiration.

There's a whole variety of recycled glassware and bamboo kitchen and table stuff.

Colorful mats and coasters made of recycled billboard -- The coaster set is $6.

20% off LED lights -- and an assortment of CFL bulbs.

Plus there's lite2go, the fun lamp from Knoend that turns the packaging into the product itself.

Lots and lots of eco-inspirational books.

Bags, bags, and more bags, from tote bags made of newspaper to laptop bags made of recycled plastic bottles.

For bigger spenders, there's the gorgeous one-of-a-kind furniture and decorative pieces -- and organic sheets and pillows and bamboo throws to go on them.
