plates with purpose

I am currently working on a booth for the Spring Garden Show at South Coast Plaza. While sourcing the various furniture and accent pieces for our native California garden, I came across Riverside Design Group's new collections of recycled glass tableware. And I'm in love.

Riverside Design Group was the first company I found that had an amazing variety of colors and styles for recycled glassware. As you can well imagine, just a couple of years ago this was not so common. The collections now have branched out to become truly unique pieces of art (functional, sustainable art...)

One such collection is plates with purpose. Each of the designs in the series benefit a different non-profit organization, which means you can feel great about shopping!

the tree collection benefits CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates)


proceeds from the elephant collection go to The National Autism Association.


Another favorite of mine is the new splash and drop bowls. These don't need much of an explanation, but how cool are they?
