Painted rocks

Eve JorgensenLemonade stands are cool, but have you ever bought hand-painted rocks from little kids at roadside tables? This goldmine business model is perfect for pandemic times: outdoors, drive-up service, no worries about viruses lurking on the lip of a Dixie cup.
My personal collection includes works by a number of young artists, and I’ve learned a thing or two about what to look for. You want to make sure the paint is acrylic (not tempera) so it has some staying power. The colors hold up pretty well outdoors and can give your flower beds year-round flair, but make sure to display your rocks in well-drained areas because standing water can melt the pigment right off. Most importantly, make sure each piece is signed by the artist.

Since Earth Day is this week, you might have seen brands posting about the various sustainability efforts they take and how they help the environment. I know I’ve definitely gotten my fair share of marketing emails. From this, I recently learned that Amazon has a special “badge” it gives products it deems to be sustainable. The program appears to still be in the early stages and the qualifications are a bit broad. To see how legitimate this program is in promoting sustainable products, I looked into the Climate Pledge Friendly badge and found 15 top-rated products that have Amazon’s green stamp of approval.
