My New Found Love: Bamboo

bambooThis week I am going to share with you some of the amazing products that are made from bamboo. Over the past couple of months I have reviewed some amazing bamboo products and I have 2 more companies to introduce you to this week. Bamboo is getting a lot of exposure due to its eco-friendly nature as well as versatility not only as a wood but as a fiber.

In the past I have reviewed bamboo clothing and I just LOVE it. Bamboo is my new favorite fabric! I love how soft and flowing it is and the colors are rich and vibrant. If you are familiar with modal fabrics bamboo is very similar in the way it lays on the body and holds color longer than other fibers like cotton. Bamboo also makes a fabulous terry cloth that can be used for towels or robes. Be sure to check out these great makers of Bamboo Clothing and other textiles:

  • HT Naturals ( great place for stylish clothes for mom)
  • Dream Sacks ( for some stylish, comfy clothes)
  • Bamboosa ( for all your baby needs like blankets, ect.)
  • BabyBam ( for all your baby needs including incredibly soft towels)
  • Organically Hatched ( makes the cutest bamboo kids robe)
  • Bambooya ( Bamboo products for thE whole house)

A few quick facts about why bamboo is amazing.Bamboo is…

  • hypoallergenic
  • anti-bacterial as well as odor preventing
  • thermal regulating
  • moisture wicking ( absorbs double that of cotton)

I will leave you with a quote I found describing one persons thoughts of bamboo and all I can say is I agree!

“Bamboo looks like expensive Pima or Egyptian cotton and drapes like silk. It has less shrinkage than cotton and does not pill. It has been described as feeling like pure cashmere.”
