Eco-Conscious Picks to Spring Clean

Freshening up your home shouldn’t mean filling it with harsh chemicals and single-use plastics. Tigress has a fantastic selection of non-toxic and low-waste cleaning essentials to help you scrub your space clean with a conscience.

Papaya Reusable Paper Towel – If you're still using disposable paper towels, this is your sign to switch! One Papaya towel replaces 17 rolls of conventional paper towels. They’re made from cellulose and cotton, meaning they are fully compostable at the end of their long life. This "Secret Garden" print is a charming addition to any spring kitchen. (I also dig the strawberry one!)

Humble Suds All Purpose Cleaner – Simplify your cleaning routine with this safe and effective all-purpose spray. Humble Suds crafts their cleaners using plant-based ingredients and pure essential oils – no synthetic fragrances or preservatives here! The glass bottle is beautiful enough to keep on the counter and can be easily refilled. Choose your favorite scent to bring the smell of spring indoors. 

Gingko Leaf Sponge Holder – Keep your sink space tidy with this lovely stoneware sponge holder. Its upright design keeps your sponge easily accessible while allowing for proper airflow so it can dry thoroughly between uses, helping to keep your cleaning tools fresher for longer. When it’s time for a refresh, the durable stoneware is completely dishwasher-safe, making maintenance effortless.

You’re welcome to come shop these items (and lots more) in person, or order online! 

By shopping at Tigress, you’re not only choosing well-made, eco-conscious products, but also supporting a local business that’s helping to make Durham a more sustainable place to live. Happy Spring!
