This week’s giveaway features a thoughtfully curated, eco-friendly prize pack from a local Virginia business, Green Nest. All items are sustainable, stylish, and practical—perfect for anyone looking to add greener choices to their home. Read on for details about the prizes and how the giveaway worked.

The winner selected their choice of a Fab Habitat recycled plastic rug in either 3 x 5 or 4 x 6 size. These rugs are woven from recycled polypropylene straws and come in more than 50 designs, offering durable, low-maintenance floor coverings that are ideal for indoor or covered outdoor spaces. The variety of patterns and colors makes it easy to find a rug that complements any decor while keeping materials out of the landfill.

Included in the prize pack was a decorative soy candle housed in a silk-screened glass vessel. Soy wax burns cleaner and usually longer than conventional paraffin candles, and these decorative glasses provide roughly 90 hours of burn time. Once the candle has burned down, the glass can be reused for storage, décor, or even drinking—making it a zero-waste-friendly choice.

The set also featured recycled soda/beer bottle tumblers: a set of four drinking glasses made from repurposed bottles. These hand-finished tumblers add character to your table while supporting the circular use of materials. They come in multiple styles and are sturdy enough for daily use, giving single-use containers a second life as attractive, functional glassware.

To round out the package, the winner chose two Garden-in-a-Bag kits to grow herbs easily at home. These compact kits are designed for simple, soil-based or soil-free planting, making it effortless to grow fresh herbs on a windowsill, balcony, or small patio. They’re a perfect introduction to home gardening for those who want fresh flavors without the hassle of extensive yard work.

Altogether, the prize pack combined practical home goods with sustainable production and reusable design: a recycled rug, a decorative soy candle in a reusable glass, recycled bottle tumblers, and easy herb-growing kits. Each item supports a low-impact lifestyle and showcases how everyday choices can be both beautiful and environmentally responsible.
