Favor Creative continues its commitment to eco-friendly business practices.
Nashua, NH (PRWEB) June 10, 2010 -- Favor Creative has recently joined the EPA's WasteWise program to keep track of how much waste is being produced each year. The company has been more active in environmental programs while adjusting business practices to be more earth-friendly.
Favor Creative carries an inventory of handcrafted environmentally friendly favors such as herb, tea and wildflower favors. Their line of event stationery - which includes favor labels, tags, table place cards and thank you cards - are all printed on 100% recycled paper. The company's packaging options range from recycled gift boxes to paper bags to biodegradable ribbon in various colors.

WasteWise members can join as partners, endorsers, or both. Partners join to change their own behavior and track their own internal waste reduction efforts, while endorsers are state and local government agencies, trade associations, nonprofit organizations, and businesses that help their members, clients, and constituents realize that reducing solid waste makes good business sense. WasteWise, launched in 1994, has more than 2000 partners.
Favor Creative is striving to become a better corporate citizen and provide customers with choices that will not take up space in a landfill or sit on a shelf somewhere. Their goal is to offer favors through their website at Favor Creative that will be used and reused.

Favor Creative Gifts and Favors Expands Product Line for Spring
Favor Creative, an online retailer dedicated to providing gifts and favors with a creative touch, announces product expansion for spring weddings, bridal showers, and baby showers.
Tyngsboro, MA (PRWeb) April 12, 2007 -- Favor Creative, an online retailer of gifts and favors, has recently expanded its product line of baby gifts, wedding and bridal shower gift party favors, and handcrafted Moroccan ceramic pottery. Part of the expansion is due to the products created by the company's Graphic Designer, Vicki Finn, who says, "I am so excited to finally be able to offer these products. My goal was to ensure quality and uniqueness to each design. We can now offer wildflower favor tins, herbs in a box, advice cards, recipe cards, and personalized alphabet books that are all unquestionably unique."
"The personalized alphabet gift book is a special favorite," Finn says. "I created it for my niece when she was learning her letters. Using photos that she recognized in her own world helped her remember the letters of the alphabet. I would like to pass this on to others using the same photos I included in my niece's book or by using custom photos supplied by the customer."
Also part of the expansion are new baby gifts essential for any new mom or dad including natural baby basics made of premium 100% unbleached organic cotton fabrics with coordinating satin and cotton trim and embroidered bib sets made of 100% cotton terry cloth with Velcro closures. Each gift is just the right size and softness for any little one.
A completely new category of artisan gifts has been added to the site, which features handcrafted Moroccan cedar jewelry boxes and ceramic pottery pieces. The pottery is hand painted with cobalt blue in a design indigenous to Fes. "These pieces were handpicked from the craftsmen in the Old Medina of Fes. I use them for wall d�cor and for serving dishes," Finn added.

New Online Business Offers Gifts and Favors with a Creative Touch
Five Spot Creative, a small graphic design business north of Boston, announces the launch of their new online store, Favor Creative, featuring gifts, favors, cards, calendars, and specializing in customized items for weddings, bridal and baby showers.
Tyngsboro, MA (PRWeb) March 15, 2007 -- Favor Creative, an online retail store specializing in gifts, favors, cards and calendars, has announced the launch of their site at www.favorcreative.com. The store is the first ecommerce venture for Five Spot Creative.
Vicki Finn, one of the proprietors of the online store, started building the business six months ago. "I have always enjoyed creating gifts for holidays and birthdays, making gift books and calendars. Last summer I was asked to take care of some wedding and baby shower favors for my friends and I found it difficult to locate quality items," she said. She hopes this new business can help those consumers looking for gifts and favors with a creative touch.
What is the creative touch? Vicki Finn, who worked as an in-house graphic designer for many years before starting Favor Creative, lends her eye for detail and creativity to each product offered through the business. "I wanted to offer people a variety of quality products to make their event planning as seamless as possible," she said, "A lot of the items are my own personal designs, like the calendars and greeting cards, and I have also created personalized favor tins, custom calendars with personal wedding, honeymoon or travel photos, and bridal shower gift books tailored to the interests of the couple. The 'Survival Guide' gift book is my favorite - it can be given in honor of a couple that enjoys nature and outdoor activities. It's packed with poems, stories and information related to those interests."
The online store is starting small, but developing a reputation for quality products and information on planning showers and events. "We are adding to our products while also building a section of ideas and advice dedicated to wedding and baby showers. We would like our customers to be able to plan for their events all in one place complete with ideas, favors and thank you cards," Ms. Finn added.
Favor Creative is officially open for business. Visit www.favorcreative.com for gifts and favors with a creative touch.
