I love this idea from newsoap.org. They recycle bottles and fill them with handsoap, cleaning supplies, et. It also got me thinking of a great DIY idea. It would be a fun “green” housewarming gift to design your own cleaning labels and give them to a friends as they move in or move out.

Check out Sugarloop’s beautiful Etsy Store. I found this great link from one of my fav art/craft blogs Oh Joy.

Special thanks to my partner Ken who has been working selflessly to change the MNF theme. Over the next week or so we’ll continue to change colors, pictures, etc. So hold on and enjoy the ride.

Ken definitely wins the best tech boyfriend award this week!

We’ve been composting here in Seattle for almost a year now. It is great. The city garbage will take yard waste and compost it for use in city parks. Since we eat a lot of vegetables, it is a great use of our scraps.

The only problem is the smell and fruit flys on our counter top since we do not empty it everyday. I ended up purchasing this cute compost bin to go under our counter, but they have beautiful ceramic counter top options too.

For other great compost pail options go to Gardener’s Supply.
