Natural Awakenings Richmond

Upcyling Comes to Raising Green Kids

Dorinda Bredbenner

Dorinda Bredbenner, owner of Raising Green Kids, a Richmond-based business committed to helping families live a healthier and more sustainable lifestyle, is expanding its natural, eco-friendly household offerings to include upcycled and refinished furniture.

All household products are handmade, and furniture pieces are repaired and repainted, usually in modern chalk paint colors, and waxed for protection. Custom painting of furniture to give it a new and modern look is also available.

Raising Green Kids was established in 2011 and carries eco-friendly and natural household products such as unpaper towel sets, felted wool dryer balls, laundry sachets, natural hot/cold therapy bags and reusable decor.

Household items can be found on Etsy at RaisingGreenKids.net, and the new upcycled furniture for local pick-up or delivery are listed on the Raising Green Richmond Kids Facebook page.
