Photo drop from Austin Creative Reuse today! They take so much stuff! Some of the things I’m working on rehoming for someone right now include quilts, lace, tablecloths, doilies and other crocheted material, greeting cards and stationery and probably a major office clean out. They take it all! Austin Creative Reuse #creativereuse #regome #downsizing #declutter…

Check with your neighbors if they may either need yours, or if you want some from your neighbors. Our school supplies get sent home every year and these are what my son was…

Buy Nothing Give – silicone pot holders: success! My mother cleaned out her drawers and gave them to me. I had them for several months and I just don’t use this type. I prefer my cloth square potholders so I posted these and I had an immediate response so these definitely moved well. Buy Nothing…

Encyclopedias re-homed! @buynothingproject saves the day again! I’m helping a neighbor to downsize their home and declutter and one of the things they needed to rehome was a 1976 set of Encyclopedias. Now as far as my neighbor, her friend the original owner of the books, and myself new, people just used these to cut…
