Nadine Curtis believes that you can do good and do well at the same time. She proves it with Be Sweet, a company that brings stylish, environmentally friendly yarns and accessories to socially aware consumers. “Be Sweet supports three job-creation programs in South Africa that help empower female artisans and villagers by giving them the means to support themselves,” says Nadine. Striking accessories include handmade bags, jewelry, scarves, and hats. Five varieties of specialty yarns, spun and painted by hand, are also available. be sweet, (415) 331-9676 www.besweetproducts.com

Bigger & Better Learn how to enlarge an older house without sacrificing its charm and character in New Rooms for Old Homes: Beautiful Additions for the Traditional  Home. Written by an architect and illustrated by more than 300 full-color photos, the book focuses on the four cornerstones of design on which all old house expansions should be based: balance, public and private areas, the careful use of transitions, and the choice of appropriate materials. (The Taunton Press, $40)
