Easiest entry ever too! Just comment here with your best Go Green tip and we’ll pick a winner at random on September 12. Got more than one tip? Comment more than one time! We are allowing multiple entries.
Oh, you wanna know the prize? It’s a not quite one of a kind Punky Moms Tshirt Tote! I was pointed in the direction of this bit of lovin and decided to make a few!
The giveaway is for one bag. It is made with our size small shirt. That means this bad ass bag measures approximately 13 inches across and 15 inches deep. Perfect for some books, some produce, or other odds and ends. The bottom seam is reinforced twice , so while I wouldn’t carry say, a bowling ball around in there, it should stand up to light/medium duty carrying.
Don’t forget to leave your name and email so we can contact ya if you win!

Instead of throwing away old junk drawer stuff, I box it for my little one (8yo) who will create art out of it. She has made several sculptures out of old plastic ladles, twist ties and colored electrical tape. I should post some of them!

Take advantage of local charity shops for everything from clothing to furniture! You have to take your time searching and you may not find your dream item at first but you’ll be pleasently surprised. The majority of clothing and furniture in my house comes from thrift stores. I teach my kids we are helping the earth by recycling furniture and clothing that still have life in them!

Keep an 8×10+ box on your desk or next to where you open your mail/go through kids backpacks and papers…etc.
Turn every paper that you don’t need in to that basket. If one side is blank, turn it blank side up. Use these for scratch paper and/or projects. You never know what type of papers you will need to write on or cut out. When the box is full, recycle these papers and start over.

If you have left over “iffy” water in your bottles or cups, NEVER pour it into your sink. Pour it over a plant/flower/tree.
MrsSkeletonMachine says:
If it’s YELLOW, let it mellow.
If it’s brown, flush it down.
(quit wasting gallons of water to flush a litle tinkle)

I wash and reuse the ‘disposable’ plastic kids dishes. Also, because it comes with a cover, I store dry cereal IN the container and add the liquid when I need to. So only 1 container needed for my day trip feedings.

DON’T flush meds that are old or that you no longer take – bring them to your local pharmacy and they will dispose of them. Meds that are flushed end up in drinking water!

Turn old favorite logo t-shirts into little pillows or patches or even sew them all together for a quilt/blanket/wall hanging.

After you use a dryer sheet in the dryer – take the sheet and use it as stablizer backing for your embroidery project.
