It's the little things that matter

Not much craftiness going on in the Silly Gilly household today. Too. dang. stinking. hot.
Cool change due tonight thank goodness!

For some reason I thought I would post about some little things that I do in our everyday lives or with my work with Silly Gilly that helps us tread just a little lighter on Mother Earth.

• Buy the majority of my daughters clothes at the op shop or garage sales
• Use scrap photocopy paper destined for the bin from Mr Silly Gilly's office to print Silly Gilly paperwork on
  
• Use my rinse water from one kitchen sink bowl to rinse out the suds in the other
• Donate clothing and toys to the op shop on a regular basis
  
• Use my daughter's kindy art work as wrapping paper for gifts
• Use only 2/3 of the required washing liquid on the clothes and it works just fine!
• Habitually turn off lights whenever I leave the room
• Either don't use plastic bags for my fruit and vegies when buying them or else reuse them for the next shopping trip

I'm sure there are other things... I'd love to hear of other little day to day things that you do that are unique to you or not many people have heard of. I'm always on the lookout for things to do which help us have less of an impact on the earth.

To finish the post here's a beautiful picture that helps just a teeny tiny bit to cool me down....
