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
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…
I have a new porch bin to collect for my neighbors: crafts and school/office supplies for Austin Creative Reuse. All my bins and bricks are donated/reused as is the duct tape. The laminator is secondhand and keeps the signs protected from the weather. Duct tape is the only tape that seems to hold up in…
We had gorgeous weather for this year’s Creation Care Fair hosted by Triumphant Love Lutheran Church. There is always such an amazing array of vendors to talk with and so many fun crafts for kids. I got to meet a real bat and took home a birdhouse and bee home for solitary bees. It was…
I found a seam ripper! Austin Creative Reuse had a seam ripper! I broke mine trying to remove handles from luggage. They also had all three colors of thread I wanted for mending. I walked around and looked at everything for ideas for Easter basket egg filler and basket filler. I will use the ribbon…
Sharing is caring! I don’t purchase items for my videos or posts. It either comes into my spheres naturally or I will ask my neighbors or my Buy Nothing group to get something that I’m getting questions about or dealing with. I have gotten rid of a lot of things over the years and so…
Today I mailed Valentine’s to my extended family. Valentine cards don’t have to be the mass manufactured holiday-specific cards stores sell. You can invoke the same feeling with the color scheme of love, or make it even more personal by finding a card or gift that exemplifies a love of the person you are sending…
I was in charge of our class’ pinata for the 100th Day of School. Most of the Party City’s are going out of business and we have one near our house, which is where I actually like to get things for school so that will be sad. While getting the pinata and contents, I saw…
I’m sharing my fall seasonal Indigenous Box. I gotta share before my winter box arrives today! I like to support small businesses particularly those that are BIPOC/HUB/SMBR (I’m a purchaser/contract administrator by profession). This box came with an assortment of indigenous/native products curated by a small indigenous company in Canada. It’s a great way to…
