Fall is here, and while many of us are looking forward to the upcoming holidays and celebrations, others are most excited to bring out their ponchos & boots.

Stefanie, Jehann, and Lori Lori Slater and Stefanie Zeldin, two lifelong friends, founded In2Green more than 16 years ago with the idea that sustainability could be modern and design-forward. This was a labor of love to ensure that they were building a company that was enduring and one that would thrive. To that end, they built what is the first eco-luxury throw company with products made in the USA. And they did this before it was mainstream to be green. Finding a new buyer was not easy, considering that they wanted to ensure that the owner continued the vision and took care of the great In2Green team based in Yonkers, NY.  Also, they searched to find someone who would maintain...

By 2006, they put their heads and experience together to create a company with the idea that sustainability could be modern and design-forward. In the beginning, Lori and Stef were obsessed with making products from recycled cotton yarns, something no one else was doing. These were yarns that were made using the fall out from the t-shirt manufacturing process (1/3 of a t-shirt is left over during the manufacturing process and that scrap is refiberized into colored cotton). At first, they made apparel --...

Traveling energizes us and ignites our creativity, from the designs of our throws to the tone of our photo shoots. Some of our favorite throws are inspired by European motifs and Scandinavian style. Our newest in2green team member, Kelly, traveled to Sweden this summer to soak up the sun with her sisters. Read on to learn about the Nordic country that has stolen our hearts.  Sweden possesses the highest percentage of renewable energy in the European Union and its capital city is keen on sustainable living. As an antidote to their long winters, Stockholm has found ways to incorporate nature through art within the underground subway system through stunning murals like this:  Experiencing only a few hours of sunlight during long...
