taking on a personal challenge of
Reduce
Reuse
Recycle
this holiday season.
and getting the kids on board too. we have been having a lot of discussions on the difference between reducing, reusing and recycling - and the hierarchy of prefer-ability here. our words became actions yesterday.
last year we spent time cutting circles out of our received holiday cards as they came down off the piano. (handy 2 1/2″ circle punch was a big hit with the kids and the activity was a perfect quiet distraction for a post-holiday afternoon.) this year we are reusing them in the construction of some holiday balls (oh elementary school memories here!) - to hang along our diningroom light fixture. while i thought i would remember how to do this - when i sat down it escaped me. a tutorial was found here.
happy holidays!
cross-posting this from jumilla bugs - after being inspired by f.pea’s last post, thought i would put this up, and see what other crafty ways you are using the 3 R’s this holiday season!
