Repurposing existing items
There are ways to reuse many existing items in your home without having to spend money on new things. I enjoy the creativity behind repurposing items

Caroline Chin 4/20/2023 6:54 AMI have been able to maintain my mindfulness practice, get outside, and continue to find creative ways to repurpose things around my home. I was out to eat and asked the server to limit how many napkins she offered so they would not get wasted. I emphasized that it's Earth Month and that it ties in with sustainable practices. She agreed and said she'd rather a customer ask for me than offer more than they actually needed. -
