Product Description

Danny Seo's brand is a way of living that embraces certain rules–Be Authentic, Be Resourceful, Be Simple, Be Unexpected, Be Truthful, and Be an Individual. In Simply Green Parties Danny takes these goals and creates projects that are both thoughtful and sustainable while still being stylish and beautiful. He hopes to inspire you to be a dreamer and a doer.

The book has essentially 50 quick and simple projects that are split up into themes–Dinner Under the Stars, Baby Shower, Saturday Dinner Party, Housewarming, Beach Party, and Birthday Party. The reader does not need to do all the projects under each party, they can mix–and–match or just choose to do one or two of them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great gift! , June 14, 2006

By	A. M. Kim (Virginia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I just received this book today and was so impressed by its presentation and great ideas. The size of the book is somewhere between a paperback book and a coffee table book so it's perfect to carry with you as well as a great little gift to give. I'm planning on buying more so I can give them out as housewarming gifts. The ideas are fresh and innovative and keeping in mind with being eco friendly. Highly recommend getting it! And will wait to get the follow up book, Simply Green Giving.

5.0 out of 5 stars Green has never looked so stylish!, July 25, 2007

By	Crystal Hansen "Over the Top Productions- Chi... (Orange County, Ca USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is a great way to get you thinking of ways to celebrate responsibly without sacrificing style! As a children's event planner I am always looking for ways to celebrate and yet preserve our precious environment so the parties can continue for generations to come. Danny brings a new perspective to the concepts of reduce, recycle and reuse. I am excited at the many concepts that can be adapted or just plain copied to create many chic parties to come. Even if your faorite color is pink, with this book you can still go green.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not Very Pratical and Not Earth Friendly Enough!, December 13, 2007

By	Say No to Plastics "Changing one person at a ... (Earth) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Simply Green Parties: Simple and resourceful ideas for throwing the perfect celebration, event, or get-together (Hardcover)

Some of the ideas are over the top and not likely I would do many of the ideas, even though I'm very creative. It's still promoting bottle water and paper /plastic plates, when we should be promoting tap water and reusable porcelain plates. What about powder ice tea in glass cup or drink mix? Would love to have seen more practical ideas that any busy person can do and have a really eco-friendly party that doesn't leave bags full trash at the end of the party. Ideas needs to send a stronger message for earth friendly parties.
