  • Most bedspreads are produced using synthetic dye. So, opt for organic sheets that are produced without the use of any chemicals. Bombay Dyeing has a great collection of organic bedspreads starting from Rs. 1000.
  • Opt for wallpapers which are low in VOCs (volatile organic compounds) content. When wallpapers high in VOCs are installed, the air pollution within the house will increase and directly affect health. Organic wallpapers have low VOC content as they made of cotton cellulose, paper products, cotton thread and other recycled materials. Talk to your nearest wallpaper store owner and find out more.
  • Jute and bamboo are organic and are ideal for curtains and rugs. Unlike other curtain materials, these are very inexpensive, starting at Rs 300.
