See Ya CFLs:

Recycle used CFLs at your local Home Depot, IKEA or check Earth911.org for drop-off locations in your zip code. If your state permits you to put used or broken CFLs in the garbage, seal the bulb in two plastic bags and put it in the outside trash. Don't incinerate, as CFLs contain a small amount of toxic mercury, an average of about 5 milligrams, which would get released into the air.

Rehabilitated Dishware

Why It's Good:

Vintage and overstock dishware gets a redesign in artist Sarah Cihat's Brooklyn, New York, studio, where bold motifs ranging from skulls to butterflies are emblazoned onto a hodgepodge of patterns and shapes with fascinating results. Assemble a one-of-a-kind set that's uniquely yours. Prices range from $34-$59.

Why It's Green:

Old and overstock dishware—snapped up by the artist from thrift shops, garage sales, and reject piles—is first given a makeover, then reglazed and refired. Repurposing an object is one of the greenest things you can do—nothing new is created, just transformed.
