We are trying very hard to not use one use bags at the grocery store anymore. I always keep at least one bag in my car. A whole lot of plastic has been saved!

Congrats! I'll get your upcycled napkins to you soon!

Thanks everyone for participating. It was fun to read what you're all up to.

thanks to random.org's random number generator. I was not skilled enough to post the actual results here and now I cannot remove the box below. It is late, my scissors are tired...so be it.

GIVEAWAY!

Happy Earth Day (almost)!!!!

To encourage you to make a change and in honor of the occasion I'm offering YOU a giveaway! 1 set of repurposed cloth lunchbox napkins! That's 4 napkins in your choice of fabrics from this collection. These napkins are great for ALL types of uses, not just lunch boxes. They're a great small size for the dinner table, for picnics, etc! They're approx. 7" square, double sided, and made from cotton fabric that I have reclaimed and repurposed.

Here's how you enter:

1. Post a comment about what you want to change (big or small) about your habits to reduce your environmental impact.

2. Post this giveaway on Facebook and post a separate comment here that you did so.

3. Become a follower of this blog and post a separate comment here that you did so.

4. Post on your blog about this giveaway and comment here with a link to your blog (I love reading other blogs!)

So that's up to 4 chances to win! I will decide with a random # generator and announce the winner here. I will happily ship within the USA and Canada.

Good Luck and Happy Earth Day!

A little note on the fridge

I found a note posted on the fridge yesterday. Pretty deep thinking for a 1st grader, and so applicable for Earth Month...

"Dear Dinosaurs,

We're sorry you're extinct. Maybe we will too someday

Love, L + R"

Wow, little girl...are you understanding climate change and pollution, etc already?

Dear Blog,

I am not meaning to ignore you.

The sun is shining. The snow has melted. A gentle breeze is blowing. I do not have to wear my thick wool socks every day. My seedlings need tending as I await the day when I can plant them outside. Oh yea, and I need to ready the raised beds and the ground plots too.

There are little people who demand to be outside every minute of the day and equally demand bubble blowing and chasing.

I am also not spending quality time constantly tending to my ETSY shop either. My sewing machines are feeling a little more neglected than usual. Have no fear, it's not just you.

The sunshine and it's warm rays are my Sirens. But I promise to not chase them too far. I'll be back. I'll be back....
