House clean out for Austin Creative Reuse and Goodwill Central Texas. I did find the keyboard that was lost, and I found a whole bunch of other things. As I’ve mentioned it’s not new stuff. It’s just stuff that I’m seeing with new eyes and ready to move along. A lot of it’s craft and…

Thursdays in Black is a global advocacy campaign standing in solidarity for a world without rape and gender-based violence. This initiative was launched by Ecumenical Women at the…

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…

I tried something new recently! I went to Bella Beauty College for a hair trim by one of their cosmetology students. Can’t tell the difference, good! They cleaned up 2 inches of split ends and layers from growing my hair out the last year and a half. It’s nice to not have tangly hair. If…
Check me out at the Triumphant Love Lutheran Church Care of Creation Fair from April 5! This is such a fun earth event and their photographer always does an amazing job. Thanks for having me again! This was my second year to table at the event. I’m labeled as Zero Waste. They set me up…
Henna is a fun natural way to experiment with body art. It’s also usually done by women, so it’s a great way to support a small business owner or businesswoman. It’s neat how it starts out like icing, dries, flakes off, is pretty light and then gets darker. I always enjoy my Mueller Neighborhood Association…
