Hey earth muffins! A few posts ago I shared what was on my current sustainable product wishlist. Now that I’ve moved into an apartment with my boyfriend, I tend to find myself on Pinterest scrolling through home decor….. π¬ Our apartment is full of secondhand finds with lots of different woods and metals; we definitely have some bamboo too! Bamboo is a great sustainable wood, so I love finding items made from it. Today I thought I would share some of my recent Amazon bamboo finds; while I might not be buying them right now, I’m definitely thinking about it! π
Bamboo Coasters, $12
Just as a disclaimer, all of the Amazon links in this post are affiliate links. I’m trying to get the number of qualifying purchases to meet the requirements for the program, so I’d definitely appreciate using my links if you can! π These bamboo coasters look awesome! A few years back my mom got me a set of wood coasters from TJ Maxx. I absolutely love them! The set was only 4 coasters though, so once we get a bigger space some new coasters would be great.
Bamboo Toothbrushes, $10 for 10 pack
Getting a bamboo toothbrush is a simple bathroom switch (almost as easy as getting a safety razor!). I use an electric toothbrush that I have had for over a decade, but I’m on my last “free” toothbrush from my dentist for when I travel. When I travel post-Covid I’ll need some sort of bamboo brush instead of buying a nasty plastic one. This pack has 10 brushes for only $10, so it is a great deal!
Cutting Board Set, $15 for 3 boards
When I started my eco journey in 2018, I bought some bamboo cutting boards right away. I love how they smell like fresh wood! π I also had a couple of glass ones, which is another great sustainable alternative to plastic cutting boards. My bamboo boards are on the smaller size, so I will definitely want to buy a larger set at some point. I love to cook and bake, so having plenty of cutting boards on hand is a must for me! If any of you are interested in some tips for taking care of bamboo cutting boards, let me know and I can write an Instagram post!
iPad Stand, $15
I have ALWAYS wanted a cute stand for an iPad/cookbook in the kitchen! My boyfriend has an old iPad that I can finally use for my recipes; it is a gamechanger from trying to read off my phone’s screen. π I love that this stand can be adjusted, as many I’ve seen in stores that aren’t. This has definitely been added to my wishlist for our next apartment, as we have limited counter space currently.
Bamboo Bowls, $30 for a set of 4
I actually see bamboo/wooden bowls at my local thrift stores quite often, but they aren’t usually in the best shape. I love the look of them and can just imagine how tasty a salad would look inside! Before I buy a set new, I am going to keep seeing if I can find a decent enough set at a thrift store… But I eventually need to get some one way or another! π
I don’t know why, but I just love the look of natural woods in my home! Maybe it’s because our apartment has its original wood floors, which adds to this vibe…. Whatever the reason, bamboo products are often quite sustainable (beware of greenwashing though!), so I suggest checking some out! π
Love,

Learned a lot, I didn’t know about these products. Thanks for sharing them.
All of these pieces look beautiful and eco friendly! Switching to a bamboo toothbrush is a wonderful idea.
Thanks for sharing these! I’m surprised that these are actually pretty affordable. For some reason, I thought bamboo products were really expensive.
