I had the best of intentions when I started out with a dry erase board for my husband’s job. Sometimes he needs to plan out what he’s working on so I created a whiteboard since that is what he uses at work. Read RETHINK: Dry Erase Boards & Picture Frames. I first found these Pilot…
Please clean/wash the pads if you can. Car seats expire so check the expiration date. I collect these to recycle if they’re expired for the Recycle & Reuse Drop-off Center in Austin or to take to @safeatx women’s shelter if they’re in good condition. If you shop at Target, their annual car seat recycling program…
This idea is a way to use up gift cards. I used an IKEA gift card for SAFE to get the bedding they need. If you don’t need it use it to help someone who can. It may be more convenient to mail gift cards, check with the place you want to help, who is…

Processing kids’ crafts. There are so many different types of materials that kids use in crafts and projects. Let’s work on a few. Also, it’s okay to process you kids’ art. You can’t keep all of it. Take pictures, keep a few, but keep things moving. #kids#kidscrafts#kidsart#schoolart#lesslandfill#zerowaste#sustainbility#momlife#makingchoices You may also like: Kids Artwork
I was able to stretch my sweater! My thrifted new-to-me 100% cotton sweater ended up in the dryer and shrank down to kid size. I washed it again and was able to stretch it out! Success! If I couldn’t fix it, I was going to reduce the arm length down for my son since it…
We recently reorganized our office. I decided that I wanted to reduce the amount of books I had in the office and the house. I spent a lot of March going through our home again working towards moderation. There is now one adult bookcase, one son bookcase, and a small living room bookshelf. This is…

New Gorilla Tape for my porch collection bins. The duct tape someone gave me isn’t sticking, nor did the previous roll really, so I needed to try a new tape to keep the laminated signs on the plastic bins. It’s so sticky and tears so well! I think it’s going to work out well! These…
Please do not buy confetti balloons. If you must, please do not pop them outside. If you pop them outside, do not do it on a windy day and pickup/vacuum all the confetti. I did a campus cleanup at my son’s school last month and I was still finding confetti in the grass four months…
