Sisters-in-Law Nancy Mims and Lisa Mims came up with the concept behind their shop of organic cotton fabric and vinyl-free wallpaper because they wanted to merge their interests of swank design and sustainable goods.

Their line of eco-friendly wallpaper is quite popular as evidenced by the great press coverage their socially-responsible company has gotten in the past year, gracing the pages of many magazines including the new Martha Stewart home design mag Domino.

In their own words:

“We believe in supporting organic cotton agriculture and manufacturing. Grown without toxic chemicals or pesticides, organic cotton is healthier for the earth’s soil and water, animals, farmers, manufacturers, and finally, YOU. Conventional cotton
production uses 25% of the world’s insecticides and 10% of the world’s pesticides (including herbicides and defoliants), despite using only 3% of the world’s cropland. Our
100% organic cotton fabrics are produced without using any harmful finishing agents and our water-based printing process also respects this simplicity and purity. Mod Green Pod’s wallpapers are also printed with water-based inks and unlike most wallpapers, ours are finished without a coating of toxic vinyl”

Their wallpapers are not only good for the environment, they are design rich, with bold and colorful prints.
