I have winter updates to my reusable picture frames! I finally figured out what I wanted to do. This is my kitchen counter update. I found a beautiful greeting card from Joy Gift Shoppe, a local Austin gift shop that recently moved to Kerby Lane. I mounted it on a 12 x 12 scrapbook paper…
I finally broke down and ordered these Reusable Gift Bags from Grove Co. I wanted to make Christmas look a little more put together for my son instead of using our regular tan pillow cases. It turns out when I donated the magnetic boxes last Christmas I included all the wired ribbon as well so…
I just finished two major collection drives with my neighbors and church. I collected shoes and boots to donate to the Austin Disaster Relief Network for Hurricane Helene survivors and towels for the babies at Austin Wildlife Rescue! We collected 14 grocery bags of shoes and 8 garbage bags of towels and sheets! Collections are…
Here we are acorn collecting for our new stuffy, Squirrely. He’s a gray squirrel from local shop Nature’s Treasures. Squirrely is a stuffed animal made from recycled bottles from Wild Republic. Squirrely needed dinner and I wanted an outside activity for us to do together. I’m working on getting us outside more for our eyesight,…
Library visit! So much good stuff at the Southeast Branch Austin Public Library! This location has an enormous Spanish section and large kids area. It’s also bri ght and has a large equitable focus! I usually grab the featured books for my son that the library puts out and my 7 year old is loving everything…
Meet my new earrings made from upcycled cereal boxes! These are from Jabebo Studio. I have Wild Turkeys and the 12 Days of Christmas here in the featured photo plus their Red Foxes. The two Christmas earrings are four birds calling on a landline phone with a cord and a partridge in a pear tree!…
I updated my turkeys to be historically accurate this year. It turns out that the settlers we now call Pilgrims, first of all did not call themselves that, and secondly did not wear the tall hat with a buckle we have come to associate and include on all Thanksgiving decorations. Why do we do that…

I’m starting Outfit of the Day videos and photos, #OOTD, and I hope it helps you with the decisions and choices you make, or to consider why you make the choices that you do! Sometimes we have the option to choose between fabrics, materials, local or corporate, and sometimes we just get what we get…
Low effort, simple, reusable bathroom changes for seasons. I don’t want a lot of stuff or things to dust so I like to use “big impact” seasonal changes. I change the rug, the soap dispenser, and the towel, plus the picture frame inserts. Soap dispensers are from @heb and I refill them from a big…
