As 2009 rolls in, we are met with the opportunity to make yet another attempt to start and, yes, actually follow through, with our new year’s resolutions. Whether it is starting a new diet, beginning an exercise program, or embarking on a new career path, these commitments made to us, by us, are reflections of our desire to better ourselves and our lives in some small or big way. And what better time to do it than at the start of a new year? It’s almost as if by putting our goals and dreams into motion at the same time Mother Earth is moving into another celebrated year of existence, we are somehow given a boost of hope and encouragement to achieve what we set out to do.

Speaking of Mother Earth and New Year’s resolutions, for 2009 why not make a commitment to a goal that will benefit both you and her. With increasing pollution, decreasing natural habitats and global warming on the rise, both man and Earth are suffering and must work together to preserve life for ALL living creatures, including the ones not born yet.
With such worldwide issues at hand, one can feel overwhelmed at the thought of solving the problems, but have no fear; the power of one is truly powerful indeed, and it doesn’t take millions of dollars or some complete transformation in our lifestyles to make a change. All it takes is one step, one commitment, one change; and J&O Fabrics can help.

At J&O, we carry a selection of environmentally friendly organic fabrics created without the use of artificial dyes, synthetic materials or hazardous chemicals. From our seaweed and cotton based Sea-Tiva, to our naturally anti-bacterial and odor-free Bamboo and Kona Cottons, our eco-sensitive collection not only looks good, but is good for you. Instead of spending your hard earned money on fads created from synthetic materials like rayon, spandex or lycra that suffocate your body and are not biodegradable once thrown away, try replacing one or two pieces in your wardrobe or linen closet with breathable, natural fibered cottons, wools or even organic hemp. A shirt for you here, bedding linen for your children there, just one step can make all the difference. Plus, who knows what kind of trend you will set in your circle of family and friends for 09’. Just one step.

Worried about the cost? Relax, with a prices at our online store starting as low as $7.98/yd, isn’t it worth the investment towards your health and that of our future generation? Make that change for the New Year. Go Green! Do it now! It’s just one step. What are you waiting for?
