Two Easy-Peasy Green Organizing Tips

Getting organized and want to be green, but fear it is too hard? Here are two easy ways while getting organized that you can be eco-friendly!

Whatcha got already? Gather up your partially used shampoos, lotions, conditioners, etc. and use them. Or pack them in a make up bag to use on your next trips so you don’t take the hotel samples.  How many meals can you create with the food in your fridge, freezer, and pantry?

Create a “use it or lose it” basket. Don’t throw something away you don’t like.  Your friends, family and co-workers are excellent guinea pigs and will probably love what you don’t. Or have a party with friends and have a great big party swap!  Keep stuff near the door/in the car so you remember  to collect and distribute!

    Another way to use those body washes and shampoos is to donate them to your nearest shelter. They are in desperate need of hygiene products of all kinds, and will be happy to accept partially used bottles.

    Great reminder, Robin! I blogged about this a while back.
