Amazingly, the staging of your valentine’s bed is completely vegan. There is no blood or despair attached to any of the décor. It’s a space filled with positive energy. Plus, it’s healthier than beds dressed in down, wool and leather. If you are among the millions of people in this world who suffer from allergies, you should only consider vegan alternatives. They are allergy free since there are no feathers or wool. Also, if you pride yourself in only wanting a healthy, clean and safe environment for your children, that’s another reason to go vegan in your interiors. Leathers and other skins are tanned with deadly chemicals. Those same poisons are touching your body and pressing against your porous skin each time you sit on your leather sofa or lean your head against your leather headboard. Why would anyone want to expose themselves or their families to these dangerous chemicals? Here’s Chief Medical Director of AO Biome, Dr. Larry Weiss, giving his insight on the subject.
