Greetings! 

 

Spring is here and Earth Day is right around the corner. It's the perfect time of the year to get excited about being outdoors and soaking up the warm sunshine! This year for Earth Day, we're doing something really special- you can read about it below.    

 

Currently, Dwayne is busy building orders from the Florida shows and trying to get a line on some new stone. Right now, he is in Utah checking out the rock that is available in the area. It's just a quick weekend trip to see if we can add new lines to our products. The first quarry did not have what we were looking for, though the owner was positive that he had just what we needed. As it turns out, the rocks were buried and not the right sizes and shapes.  

 

After an 11 hour trip with the truck and trailer, he is there and I'm here in Colorado making calls to try to locate the rock we need. I feel like the office gal on the TV show American Pickers who stays back at the store trying to locate leads. Hopefully I will hit the jackpot- keep your fingers crossed. We want to find something special for you! He'll be back in the shop by Monday with or without new stone.    

 

Looks like we will be visiting Chicago at the end of August! We were invited to display at the Port Clinton show for the first time! 

 

Also, a quick update on our youngest daughter: she is halfway through her treatments and they took new x-rays for her scoliosis. The news was that she is straightening out and they have reduced 2 of her curves by 10% & 6%. Amazingly, this was done without any surgery, and we're very grateful.The center works on all kinds of back issues. It's very good and uplifting news! Thank you to everyone for your words, prayers and good energy!

Go Green, Save Green, Plant Green:

Never has there been a time when "Green" was more popular. Everywhere you look, it seems that someone is talking about sustainability and earth friendly products. Stone 2 Furniture was building unique earth friendly furniture way before it was cool to be "Green."

Go Green. No trees are harmed in the making of Stone Furniture.The furniture is created with existing stone made hundreds of years ago by Mother Nature. Up to 90% of the metal is up-cycled or reclaimed. No harsh chemicals are used in the making of the furniture.You won't find a dumpster located anywhere near Stone 2 Furniture. Everything is recycled or repurposed. Any leftovers from the making of the furniture is returned to Mother Nature or taken to the scrap yard where the metal is recycled. Indeed, some of Dwayne's metal sculptures are made with scrap metal leftover from the furniture. At Stone 2 Furniture, we focus on creating the smallest footprint possible by designing furniture that is beautiful, functional, unique and earth friendly. We don't like waste.

For customers concerned about the carbon footprint of transporting stone furniture to their home from Colorado, Jill notes, "Any furniture you buy requires shipping, but ours isn't coming from overseas. Because stone furniture lasts for generations, it needs to be shipped just once. We also ship products using just a pallet and shrink wrap - no cardboard, bubble wrap or other materials that need to go to the landfill."

 

Saving Green. Stone Furniture is easy on the wallet. According to a survey by Casual Living Magazine, nearly half of consumers expect their outdoor furniture to last only five years or less. Since it is built to last it will save money because you won't have to replace it. In addition, there is no maintenance required and no storage needed. You won't be spending extra money on your furniture.

What you can spend is extra time enjoying your furniture year round with your friends and family.  

 

 

Moreover, you and your family will save green as environmentally friendly Stone Furniture won't end up in the landfills; instead it can be handed down as an heirloom for the next generation.

 

Plant Green. To celebrate Earth Day April 22nd, when you purchase furniture from Stone 2 Furniture throughout the month of April, we will purchase trees in your name from the Arbor Foundation which will be planted in our National Forests. "Over the course of 50 years, a single tree can generate $31,250 of oxygen, provide $62,000 worth of air pollution control, recycle $37,500 worth of water, and control $31,500 worth of soil erosion.

 

Your trees will be silent sentinels, honorable monuments, and for decades to come, active participants in nature's plan." (Arbor Foundation, 2015).

In the month of April you can Go Green, Save Green and Plant Green.Your purchase of unique Stone Furniture will not only help to beautify your outdoor space but will be friendly on your wallet and make a difference to the environment. With Stone 2 Furniture it is easy to be Green! Call Jill today and tell her you are ready to Go Green!
