    I am taken aback with the fantastic variety, style and quality of the products made from post consumer goods. My grown son and I have a web site that provides recycling bins that offers some 1200 products, and I am looking forward to letting people know in my blogs, Hubs, etc. that there is a place to go to see the fruits of their labors. I would be glad to include a hyperlink in these articles if you are interested. Please contact me at our web site or by email if this is of interest to you.
    Thanks, NEIL

    I have two pair of the Simple Toe Foo flip flops and I love them. I wear them constantly and they hold up well to all kinds of abuse.

    I really love the Mohop sandals–that’s on my top ten wish list right now. :-D
