I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

My name is Leah. I've started this company, Peez & Ques. It helps me help Momma Earth, and I'm helping others do the same. I'm artistically inspired by wanting to help the earth and leave little environmental footprint. I cut up magazines, junk mail, catalogues; really anything I can get my hands on, and I paste the scraps into collage-inspired designs onto 100% recycled content or tree-free note cards. I'm a gemini and live up to that reputation, but in the best posible way, of course! I like to, excuse the pun, "stop to smell the roses" but I also like to go so fast that I catch up to my own tail. I love my friends deeply, but have very high expectations for them. And, I expect from myself things that are not always easy to achieve: self-respect, spiritual fulfillment, health and eco-conscious lifestyle.... Ultimately, I want to be happy. That means having love, giving love and being well rounded. That doesn't mean counting my Benjamins, but who wouldn't love to make a little cash along the way!Check out my website www.peezandques.com

Not a Chinese Junk, Our Junk!

A friend recently sent me a link to a very interesting blog. It is the story of a raft named Junk, and made of just that, junk! Made from 15,000 plastic bottles, Junk, as I type this, sails from Cal...

Wear Your Ride Well!

I am very enamored with the new breed of eco-crafter. So much fabulous junk exists in this world and it is just begging to be re-fashioned. Alicia and Brad of Hi Octane Jewelry are no exception to t...

The Big Yellow Idler

One Man’s Trash....

Shower the Way Mother Earth Intended!

I love nothing more than a nice long shower. But a lot of bath products out there defeat the purpose of my behind-the-curtain spa time with their additives, preservatives and such. I was lucky to me...
