Going Green in the Bedroom – Wood Toys
When I’m thinking about green sex toys, the first material that comes to my mind is wood. I mean, can’t you just picture a bunch of hippies saving the environment by day and then whipping out their wooden dildos and going to town after their nightly drum circle? While a lot of you who have never considered a wood sex toy may be a little nervous (splinters!) but here to discuss the possibilities in this latest installment of Going Green in the Bedroom.
The first great thing about wood is that it is a renewable resource. If we take the time to plant trees, we’ll have an unlimited supply of material to craft dildos from for future generations. I don’t know about you, but that makes me feel really good. I’d hate to think of a future in which wars are waged over the lack of quality sex toys…
While individual companies use different sealants and processes to craft their toys, in general I can say that these toys are body safe also. While you really need to research the individual product, a good example is the Don Wands Treeze line. It is created from a unique wood/urethane hybrid material that is hypoallergenic, nonporous, phthalates free, waterproof and splinter free. Because of this hybrid material, there’s no coating to chip off either!
If you like firm materials, your should really consider a wooden toy for obvious reasons. While this may be a bit unexpected, the wooden dildo that I have is also one of the smoothest toys I have. I would compare to another green material, glass – all you need is a couple of drops of lube and every thing will glide along quite smoothly.
One of the most important things you should consider when making an effort to go green in the bedroom is what material your toys are made of. Wood is a unique material that is definitely worth considering.

I always appreciate when someone helps to spread the word about wooden sex toys. You really can’t find a much greener material than wood. and the Don Wands ones are especially great with the bonding process they do. That way, your really don’t ever have to worry about whether or not the varnish has worn off the toy.
