we our partners
Each home decision means more than most realize. Purchasing handcrafted home goods is more than getting a unique work of art. It goes beyond the genuine natural materials used to craft each piece. It's even more than the TLC and care that goes into each one-of-a-kind item. Each handmade purchase provides gainful employment opportunities for talented artisans, in the USA and in countries all over the world. Now that's powerful!

We thank our lucky stars that we have the opportunity to partner with like minded organizations that focus as much on their people and planet, as much as they do on quality and integrity.
You'll find nothing but animal lovers and fur baby parents at Healthier Homes. We believe animals are just as important as people, and our partners do too. In fact our leather and wool products are produced under the highest animal welfare standards, and come from sustainably managed pasture-centric farms. The natural leather home goods are a by-product of the meat industry, eliminating unnecessary harm or waste. Only safe metallic and acid dyes are used without added fire-retardants.
We believe in the value of a good night's sleep! This means sourcing the highest quality, sustainably grown, pesticide free, all natural bedding and blankets. Here at Healthier Homes, you'll find only natural plant-based materials like super soft bamboo, silk, modal, and cotton, as well as ethically sourced wools from alpaca, sheep and camel. All of our feathers are ethically sourced, too. And our partners practice responsible, clean manufacturing practices, including the use of closed loop fabric processes. Here's to a restful night's sleep!
Sustainability and eco friendly are at the core of our philosophy when it comes to textiles like natural rugs and pillows. Our manufacturing and brand partners believe less is more. You won't find added chemical fire retardants, PVC, stain repellants, toxic dyes or wrinkle free applications at Healthier Homes. We're purposeful about manufacturing standards.
We share your passion for sourcing organic and natural ingredients. Here you'll find home products designed with modern European influences as well as Scandinavian / Nordic inspirations. Plus sustainable farmhouse and modern cottage designs, too. And most importantly, every Healthier Homes piece is crafted responsibly and made of natural and eco friendly materials like wood, stone, glass, natural fibers, and metal.
Our Healthier Homes wallcoverings manufacturing partners share the same values of material transparency and naturally derived quality. Healthier Wallpapers are made with materials from nature, such as leaves, sand, grasses, minerals, glass beads, mother of pearl and cork. These natural papers are unpasted and made from 100% natural breathable fibers that resist mold and use water-based inks applied via a smoke-free system.
Paint, primers and finish coatings cover the largest surface area inside a home or building. One of the most effective ways to create a healthy, toxin free living space is to paint. We feel so strongly about this that we developed our own line of water-based acrylic paints. All Healthier Homes paints are free of HAPs (hazardous air pollutants), cure VOC free, contain zero formaldehyde, and block harmful offgassing from materials under the painted surface -- unique attributes to Healthier Homes paints.
For years we've searched for quality solid wood furnishings without MDF, particle board and plywood. We wanted furniture that wasn't finished with chemical-laden stains, stinky lacquers and solvent-based waxes. The pickings were slim. So we're changing that! Here you'll find furniture collections that you can feel confident about putting in your home... All Healthier Homes PIY (paint it yourself) solid wood furniture is plantation grown Parawood that's matured past its production lifecycle. Rather than being disposed of or burned, the timber is rescued and crafted into timeless solid wood furniture. Every time one is harvested, another tree is planted to harmoniously maintain nature's balance... Our complete line up of furniture includes pieces handcrafted from natural materials like metal, timber, stone and rope.
Healthier Homes is committed to the responsible use of forest resources for our furniture and decor. We work with our suppliers on an ongoing basis to promote the use of responsibly sourced timber, from certified woods, to fast growing tropical hardwoods, to reclaimed sources.
We recognize the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) as a very important organization that promotes responsible forest management. Here at HH, we also partner with manufacturers that source timber that’s been rescued and given a new purpose from countries around the globe. From olive tree farms and mango orchards, to latex farms and old teak trees, this philosophy means together, we’re finding a new purpose for timber after it’s “useful life” as a fruit producing tree or otherwise.
For you, the one that will enjoy your new piece of furniture for years to come, this is your opportunity to let your voice be heard! Do this by choosing to purchase pieces from retailers that you trust. So you can be confident that your coffee table is not made from wood that was illegally harvested or your chair isn't from a forest that once was.
It is our hope that this responsible wood sourcing policy can help you to make responsible choices and be an inspiration for others!
