If you are one that follows my blog, you might know that I am always looking for ways to live more eco-friendly. While I don’t make many BIG changes, I believe the small things I do counts. For example, I recycle my plastic and cans. I don’t save them and take them to a recycling place because I guess you can say that I am lazy. I do try to put all my recyclables in my blue recycling garbage can that gets picked up every other week. I am also cautious with the amount of water we waste, paper we waste, etc. I am hoping that my children will notice mom recycling all the time and will follow in my footsteps. This would make my small changes even bigger.
We recently have had the opportunity to review some cool water bottles from Reduce. We have the Water Week set and I LOVE them. The reason why I have a passion for these bottles is the fact that I drink a TON of water every day. I am one of those people that try to drink their recommended 8 glasses of water each day. I only wish that my family loved water as much as I do. Sometimes I have to make sure we have nothing else to drink so that everyone will drink water around here. While I don’t really prefer tap water (i think its kinda dirty), I hate using those non reusable plastic water bottles that you get when you buy bottled water. I feel bad using and tossing them and have heard bad things of trying to re-use them. So the best thing that I have done is recycle them.
The Reduce WaterWeek bottles come in very handy. I know can keep my fridge stocked with cold water in bottles that I can reuse. What I do now is buy a big jug of bottled water and fill these bottles up. These came in very handy during my road trip to Disneyland last week. We each had our own cute bottle of water in the car for the drive.
Here are some of the features:
- BPA free
- 16oz capacity
- Saves consumers an average of $500 per year!
- Includes fridge tray that slides neatly into your fridge.
- Dishwasher and freezer safe.
You can find the Reduce Water Week bottles in two different designs (Spectrum & Naturals):

I’d love their smash can.
the wild bamboo bowl looks so pretty! It would be useful, organic and make a beautiful dish to use at dinner parties.

I learned that every time you use a hydration bottle you are keeping 2 plastic water bottles out of a landfill.

SMASH CAN!!! OMG! I.need.this!
I could use the 00187 – Melaboo Batter Bowl Set.
This is my year of drinking water! Early this year, I decided to commit to drinking at least 48 ounces of water a day (I hope eventually to raise the number to 64). Like you, I’m not thrilled with re-using regular water bottles. These seem like a perfect solution. While on the Reduce site, I fell in love with the Smash Can, and see one in my future. That it compacts 2x the amount of garbage is a terrific feature. Thanks for the introduction to Reduce — and I’m keeping all fingers crossed for the giveaway!

Often the bloating and swelling common with pregnancy can be lessened or even eliminated by drinking enough water was an interesting fact that I learned–I know I don’t drink near enough water!

I learned the bottles are BPA free eco friendly and reusable how cool!!
I learned that the Smash Compactor reduces trash going to the landfill by half. Between that and recycling there shouldn’t be much!
Yay they are BPA free!
There are some really great products. I need some batter bowls, so the batter bowl set would be another great addition to the kitchen!
They also make really cute ones that will fit in kids lunch boxes!
