10 Green ways to Win Her over in the Bathroom

1. Elongated Dual Flush Toilets: are a great way to give your bathroom a green update. These dual flush toilets are very stylish and can save thousands of gallons of water. They Use two different flush mechanisms. Depending on how comfortable you are I would wait to use the full flush. Very cool looking toilets on macustrade.com site

2. Enviromentally Friendly cleaning solution: She probably won't want to wear shower shoes in your bathroom. Ok in college, not ok now. A clean bathroom is always a good thing. Using a green cleaning solution such as the multi purpose Biokleen
spray is a great way to keep things clean in the bathroom. It is also safe to spray around any animal and is not made with any harsh chemicals.

3. Toilet Paper: If you are going to have a lady over you better make sure you have TP and while you are at it make sure the Toilet Paper is EPA compliant :

4. Natural Home Magazine: Ahh she caught you catching up on your, "green." Have a, "Natural Home Magazine", stashed by your dual flush toilet

5. Bamboo Vanity:Bamboo grows quickly and is easily renewable. A cool bamboo vanity may even score you brownie points. Who knows, she may even try to leave her tooth brush.

6. Compact Florescent Light Bulbs: Just had a bright idea (Compact Florescent light bulb over my head, cartoon style)- Install Compact Florescent Light Bulbs, they use less energy and last longer than regular light bulbs.

7. Towels: Taking a shower at the same time may save water at least you can try to convince her of that, but toweling off with a bamboo towel is definitely green and impressive. Usually these towels get softer with every use.

8.Bath Mat: Now that she has kicked off the shower shoes you will probably need a bath mat. Bamboo bath mats are very stylish and functional. Showing off your intelligence..niice.

9.Liquid Soap:You may not wash your hands after every time you go, but she probably does. Washing with a liquid hand soap containing no synthetics, perfumes, preservatives, or harmful chemicals is a great way to keep it clean.

10.Candles: You must really like her, candles in the bathroom?. Beeswax candles are great. They last longer, smokeless, hypoallergenic and the list goes on. Light that fire
