Pick up a cute sponge cloth for $5-8 each or a pack of 3-5 that will likely run you less than $5 a per cloth. They’re beautiful, thoughtful, and still deliver your birthday message! 🎂🥳 I tested the Sharpie on these before and they do not bleed all over the cloth, but they do fade over time by running them through the dishwasher. 🙂 Would you try this? 🌱 #spongecloth #swedishdishcloths #reusable #birthdaycard #giftideas #Sustainability #sustainableliving #ecofriendly

When I try to thrift at multiple places in one day my body will quite literally hit a limit and I have to leave. 😂 That thrift store air really gets to me. 😩 #thrifting #thriftstorefinds #thriftstore #consciousconsumer #Sustainability #sustainableliving #ecofriendly #thriftingreality

📍Washboard Cafe How is this locally owned shop enhancing its community? This laundromat is a staple for the people that live here, but traditionally laundromats are pretty boring… 🧺 Instead of just having a nice laundromat, and calling it a day, they turned part of it into a spot where you can grab a good cup of coffee, a pastry, and sit to do work, homework, or just chill while you wait for your laundry. This creates a fun and functional third space for people to go besides home and work. ☕️ Besides being incredibly clean, the business also had an outdoor play area for kids and a basket of knitted children’s hats someone donated for people to take. How could this not put a smile on your face? 🥰 #sprimgfieldmo #missouri #cafe #coffeeshop #community #thirdspace #Sustainability #communitysupport #thirdplace #3rdspace

You are seeing the highlights! 👏 These thrifty videos are to celebrate more sustainable ways of sourcing items and prove you can still have a nice home, wardrobe, and gift that’s secondhand. 🌎 That does not mean I don’t also see outrageously priced items, weird DIY projects, and finds that are incredibly random or dirty. 😂 I’ve seen it all! Follow for more thrifty tips. ✨🤭 #Sustainability #sustainableliving #ecofriendly #ecofriendlyhome #secondhand #secondhandshop #thrifting #thriftstorefinds #thriftwithme

Do you have a tote bag at home? Do you already have a basket you can bring with you that you can put your items in? 🫣 When can we start glamorizing using reusables we thrift or already have? The overconsumption of reusable items defeats the purpose of being a more planet-friendly option and grossly undervalues the natural resources it takes to create these items. 🌱 Appreciate the cute bag, but don’t line up to buy them all if you don’t need them. ❤️ #traderjoes #traderjoesfinds #traderjoesbag #totebag #reusable #Sustainability #sustainableliving #ecofriendly #consciousconsumer #overconsumption

So we finally ditching Starbucks?! 😏✨☕️ Drop any tips you have used to help you transition away from buying your daily cup of joe with them. 🍉 And before anyone asks, this is not a Chamberlain Coffee ad. It’s just the cutest cup I had clean at the moment. 😂 Solid coffee, but also support a local roaster if you can. 💯 #Sustainability #sustainableliving #watermelon #starbucks #starbuckcoffee #coffee #ecofriendly #ecofriendlyhome #consciousconsumer

+ I don’t have to use the stove?!

My mom always gets so mad at me when she sees that I am still wearing the “L❤️ve Harry” socks she got me for Christmas 12 years ago, but I’ll just continue to say it’s sustainable fashion and move on. ☠️💅✨(I have every band member except for Liam, I have no idea where those ones went. 🫣) #Sustainability #sustainableliving #sustainablefashion #slowfashion #ecofriendly #ecofashion #ecofriendlyfashion #consciousconsumer #onedirection #1d

“Texas joined Florida, Maryland, Colorado and other states to block HOAs from banning some low-impact landscaping such as drought-resistant xeriscaping, rain gardens or native plant gardens.” -The Washington Post These stories are too few and far between. We need more states to step in and stop the HOA restrictions from escalating, so that homeowners dont have to foot the costly legal bills to fight back. 🏡 #nativeplants #nativelandscaping #grasslawns #Sustainability #ecofreindly #hoas
