Spencer Peterman
Spencer Peterman carves bowls so shiny and smooth that they look like giant beach-strewn seashells. In fact, he crafts them from wood found deep in forests, salvaged from fallen trees. His Massachusetts-based site offers a wide range of sizes and textures (cherry, spaulted maple, and black walnut among them), with one-of-a-kind cutting boards, tables, trays, and servers also in the mix.

SusyJack*
Manhattan artist Susan Connor's eye-catching paper goods—desk notebooks, ringlet jotters, and more—feature fantastical designs printed with vegetable inks on completely recycled paper. Even her blank notecards are simple yet brilliantly cheery.

Structured Green
A tangerine-colored daybed, sleek-lined benches for the outdoors, and recycled aluminum chairs designed by Philippe Starck are just a sampling of the slick, modern furniture here. For affordable—but equally stylish—options, click over to the Accessories and Sale sections. As a bonus, each product on the site is given a helpful green rating based on a list of such qualifications as materials, recyclability, and packaging.

3R Living
The husband-and-wife team behind this site named their company 3R after the catchphrase "reduce, reuse, and recycle," and they refer to their vast assortment of cleaning supplies, books, candles, and more as "future friendly." Winnow the selection by searching items under $50, $20, and even $10; plus if you have any questions, they respond to e-mails within 24 hours.

Wildflower Organics
Based out of Austin, Texas, Wildflower hosts an extraordinarily good sweep of offerings, from organic mattresses to bamboo baby socks. A section of one-of-a-kind items is especially worth a look—you'll find pieces as diverse as driftwood candelabra and naturally formed teak tables with whimsical, curling edges.
