New Places for B.B. Bellezza

This week you will be able to find B.B. Bellezza in 2 new places! Ephrata and Lititz.

The first place, The heArt of Friendship Art Gallery, is a place I was with when it opened. Back then, I was working my day job and had too much going on to put my full effort in. Now I am back!

This is a wonderful gallery that works with disabled artists. Their work along with professional artists' work is displayed at the Heart of Friendship Gallery.

39 East Main Street

Ephrata, PA

The second place is in Lititz, Broad Street Bazaar. This is a eclectic mix of handmade goodies, in a great location close to Wilbur Chocolate (mmmm) and other cool shops in Lititz.

55 North Broad St.

Lititz, PA

Both of these shops are lovely and really helping the handmade community.

Tuesday Tip for Greener Living - Recycled Paper

Ever wonder if using recycled paper is really helping? It seems so simple. It only costs slightly more than paper that is not recycled.

Well, according to Weyerhaeuser, using recycled paper helps a lot!

Recycling 1 ton of paper saves:

• 17 trees
• 6,953 gallons of water
• 463 gallons of fuel

Recycling prevents:

• 587 pounds of pollution
• 3.06 cubic yards of landfill

Also, if everyone would start to purchase recycled paper, it would create a demand for recycled paper. Thus, more paper companies will be creating more recycled paper and less non recycled paper.
