Lightly Coasters & Mats
May 19, 2008 by Jennifer
Ok, first I have to note that these are made in Australia – so lucky you if you live there. I’m going to look for something like it a little closer to my hometown, but until then…
Look at these placemats!

The new Eco-Ware line from Lightly – 100% recycled cork and rubber placemats and coasters. Heat resistant, made of reconstituted wine corks, biodegradable, and lovely. In fact, so lovely I think you could even use them for your green wedding! Designs include Tree, Club, and Sophia – all are very cool, but I like the tree design above best.

See, I always told everyone that brown is beautiful – why everyone goes for red and blue is beyond me. See many more amazing objects at Lightly.

Those are much prettier then the trivet I made from old wine corks
You ladies have had so much good stuff up lately that I wanted to comment on…ACK! But I have to say that when I saw this it made me think of my wine-drinking dad. Just like N & J, my 57yo dad has been making trivets for everyone in the family! I just wanted to brag that my dad is at least a little green around the edges…but thanks for highlighting this site! I’m going to go check out some coasters now…
I prefer brown too – and those are beautiful!
