AIMEE TARULLI SHARES HER TOP FIVE ECO-FRIENDLY STYLING TIPS
1 Upcycle anything and everything. To get the best results, look for a solid timber item that’s still in reasonable condition. 2 If you’re renovating or doing a new build, work with the orientation of your block to allow the maximum amount of light through the home. This will reduce the need for artificial lighting during the day. 3 Shop locally to support boutiques and makers. 4
Look for vintage pieces, especially things like one-off vases and smaller furniture items, online or at second-hand shops. 5 Do your research. Purchase decorative items like soft furnishings that have minimal packaging and that have been made using fair-trade practices.
