5 EASY SUSTAINABLE CHANGES YOU CAN MAKE AT HOME

I really really love the quote “we don’t need a handful of people doing zero waste perfectly, we need millions of people doing it imperfectly.” I think we can all make some easy, small changes within our home and even if we all became 10% better it would make such a big difference. And 10% might lead to 20% and so on. It is hard to make new habits as an adult so I think one of the best things we can do is to teach our kids the importance of making these small changes.

There is a really cool company called Grove Collaborative that is an online marketplace that sells sustainable solutions for you and your home. They have really high standards for the products that they carry, so you know what you are getting is from an eco conscious brand. This makes it really easy when wanting to make changes in your life so you don’t have to sift through products, you can shop on their site knowing you’ll make a good decision.

HERE ARE 5 EASY CHANGES YOU CAN MAKE IN YOUR HOME

1. Start composting. We have been loving composting for the last year or so and if you have kids you can get them involved in this too. We have a little bin we keep under our sink that we then empty into our big compost outside.

2. Use reusable water bottles instead of plastic water bottles.

3. Invest in pieces you know you will have for years to come.

4. Use reusable shopping bags. I admit I sometimes forget to put mine back in my car, but we usually have them in our cars to make it easier.

5. Use a metal bento box and reusable snack bags for kid’s lunches.

OUR HOME OFFICE

LIFESTYLEOCTOBER 17, 2019

The blog has been somewhat neglected this year. You’ll soon find out why – I have just been super busy with other projects but it does make me sad that the blog has gotten ignored because this is what started it all and it has always felt like my journal. This even felt weird to sit down and write a blog post because it has been a while. We took these pictures yesterday to show you guys our home office. I love this space sooo much I felt like I had to share all of the photos on here too. I got the bulk of the office pieces but even with 90% of it done I felt like there was just this unfinished feel like I needed something on the walls. I reached out to Jenny Komenda, a local interior designer and businesswoman to see if she would want to collab! Jenny has an amazing print shop, Juniper Print Shop, with so many beautiful prints and I felt like they would make a perfect gallery wall in my office! But I cannot create a gallery wall to SAVE MY LIFE. I picked out a bunch of prints I loved and she worked her magic. And you guys… I could have never in a million years made my office feel the way it does now. I can’t even explain it.. she just had this magical touch and added a few vases here and there, a couple pillows, and that incredible gallery wall and boom just instantly the room felt complete and SO inspiring. I am not kidding when I say I look for excuses to walk in there and I sometimes just go look in there because it makes me so happy. I love it soooooo much.
