I have long thought that although the Kindle is a wonderful device to have, that many people would prefer to read their books on a bigger screen or on a device they already own. While I understand that Amazon would like to sell as many Kindles as possible, in today's economy, some people would rather just buy the downloads of the books, instead of a new electronic device. Not only that, but people use computers every day in their work or at home, and if they love the Kindle app on their computer, they are much more likely to buy a Kindle.

So here it is folks! You can now download the FREE Kindle Reading Apps today, try out a book on your new app, and check out what all the fuss is about. I know that since I am an avid reader, I will definitely be adding the FREE Kindle Reading Apps to my computer ASAP. And why not? Who knows if it will be free forever, and I would love to save paper as much as possible.

Dare we call this Eco-Chic Green Reading?

I have been spending quite a bit of time lately exploring eBay's World of Good. It is a growing shopping mall for green gifts, and specialty items, and really fun to browse.

I recommend that you browse eBay's World of Good to see what they have to offer and bookmark some items for your friends and relatives. It is always good to know that you are contributing to the health and well being of your friends and family.

Here is one of my personal favorites this week:

Alex and Ani St. Christopher Bracelet
I think that I might have to get one of these for myself.

For my friends, this is a great gift:

Getting Frustrated Looking for Green Gifts? originally appeared on Eco-Chic Green Fashion on May 17, 2012.

Green Nest is a very interesting company that specializes in organic green products for the home with a special emphasis on products to make your home cleaner and pollutant free. Green Nest has an entire line of air purifiers and non-toxic building products as well as home decor, bedding, and other general home products.

Air purifiers are especially helpful for people with allergies, and other immune system compromising disorders but they are also really great for any family. In the winter, when we are cooped up indoors breathing each other's air, it is much easier to catch colds and the flu. With an air purifier you can reduce that likelihood immensely.

I just bought this gorgeous wolf t-shirt for my daughter, and it is even more beautiful in person than it is in the picture above. The Mountain prints each of these t-shirts to order on a 100% cotton, hand dyed shirt which are screenprinted using environmentally safe, water based inks so they are entirely eco-chic.

Their wolf t-shirts are beautiful, but they make many other t-shirts, most are nature related, but they also have a line of fantasy images which are also just gorgeous. If you like animals or fantasy t-shirts or just love beautiful artwork, take a look by following this link.

What is a massage candle?

Light the candle and burn it for 15 minutes to enjoy the wonderful scent. Extinguish the flame, then use it as a warm massage oil.

One of the benefits of using Greenfire Candles for massage is that the warm oily wax soothes dry skin: Greenfire's premium and unique blend of all-natural vegetable and soy waxes is vastly saturated with Vitamin E. Use Greenfire candles for their healing purposes. Premium, food-grade ingredients and the wax's low melting point mean the product is entirely skin-safe and warm to the touch. The vitamin E will absorb into skin, leaving it luxuriously soft and fully renewed.

At only $15, this is the perfect stocking stuffer or special gift for a loved one.
