Living Cheap and Green has a freecycle plug up. I follow our area’s freecycle via email but haven’t participated in awhile. For me, it’s more an opportunity to declutter to someone who will really get use out of an item, rather than to accumulate more items at no cost. Either way, we all win.

Michelle’s post today at Leaving Excess hit close to home. I am definitely still finding my balance as a new mom-to-four.

Plum Pudding has a cool project to reuse cereal boxes. The envelope min-tutorial is a great idea for sending photos so they won’t get bent.
