How to go about decorating in an environmentally friendly way?
My partner and i recently bought a flat and are thinking about trying to decorate in as environmentally friendly a way as possible.
we are
thinking of getting bamboo flooring, and eco-friendly paints. but my question is, what is
the best type of environmentally friendly paint to use and where can i buy it? are there any pitfalls to this type of decorating (i.e. poor paint coverage)?
also, if someone has any advice/experience to share it would be much appreciated!
thanks,

Green planet paints - natural clay paints for interiors using unique mayan clay pigments. (www.greenplanetpaints.com)there is a location finder on the websitethe clay base is excellent, the room i used it in (lavina color) is the most used room in the house, the bathroom, and i have 3 kids... i painted it 6 years ago and i have had to do touch ups 2 times. the paint has held up better than any other paint i have used.home decor- http://www.pristineplanet.com/fair-trade-eco-friendly/home-decor-misc/3625_a_0.html
