Popular Shower Curtains:

Price: $59.95

Amazon Rating: 4.0 stars out of 5.0 (540 ratings)

About this item: Revamp your bathroom with their selection of high-quality shower curtains.

Available in two other stunning fabrics (hemp and linen), these curtains are designed to withstand daily use while adding a touch of elegance to your bathroom space.

These shower curtains are all locally handmade in the United States with all natural and non toxic materials.

Why Organic Cotton Shower Curtains are Better than Plastic

Unlike flimsy plastic curtains that can tear easily and develop mold and mildew over time, the Bean Products’ cotton canvas curtains are designed to withstand the rigors of daily use.

In addition to being durable, cotton canvas shower curtains also have a subtle translucence that allows light to penetrate through. 

This not only creates a bright and airy atmosphere in your bathroom, but it also helps to aid in the drying process.

By allowing light to filter through the fabric, their curtains help to promote air circulation and prevent moisture buildup, which can lead to mold and mildew growth.

These shower curtains are also machine washable, simply machine wash cold and hang to dry.

About this item: 14" x 20" Cotton zippered shell filled with organic buckwheat.

The cotton fabric shell creates a soft exterior that can withstand hand and machine wash.

Why buckwheat is good filling for pillows:

The natural organic hull filling is firm allowing your head to be supported evenly over the whole pillow. 

Millet hulls are softer, lighter, more movable and provide flexible support that conforms to your head and neck contours allowing you to have yourself a healthy night sleep.

The pillow is also thermodynamic making it breathable and heat reducing.

Non-toxic for your pets

When it comes to buying products for our beloved pets, we always want to ensure that we are getting the best quality possible.

However, many pet owners may not realize the potential dangers that can come with purchasing a dog bed that is made in other countries.

According to EcoCenter's recent data on toxins in dog beds, it has been revealed that Chinese-made beds are among the most offensive in terms of harmful chemicals and toxins.

Only 3 of 69 beds tested were found to be completely toxin-free. 

These American-made pet beds are made without formaldehyde, ozone depleters, mercury, lead, and other heavy metals.  They are also made without PBDEs, TDCPP or TCEP (”Tris”) flame retardants
