Very Small Feet

I while back I posted about marking small changes to go zero waste, or be more conscious of my waste and use less plastic. Basically to be greener.  And it is more or less routine now so I forgot all about progress post...  But this weekend we were at the birthday party. When I contacted the mum about the present for a child, she said oh please smth little and if possible from charity shop, because they are trying to be “conscious of their waste”. When I read that I smiled and little me in my mind did a little dance and cheered!  And it was great all the regular paper plates and single use cups were reusable plastic ones, same as the ones I have at home. A gift to take home was a book to chose and a reused jam jar with cake mix How delightful right!  So all this loveliness made me think about the changes I have made in my own life and how is worked out so far.  Reusable make up pads are going strong. It’s now not even a novelty, however I have a bit of an issue ...

I never wanted to be like everyone else... Back home in kind of post soviet and in tradition of saving money there were always second hand places... And I always did some customizing, besides it is super fun.. but somehow I stopped doing this... I m hoping to get back my creative hat on! Besides there are so many people who truly inspire! the amazing  Alisa   The crafty Emma and Elsie from  Beautiful Mess I think if there was a cyber space I can live in for few days I would say it would be definitely A beautiful mess blog. With all the delis cocktails and cakes! And I love  Kirsten  and her glittery creations! By the way this dress is made of curtains!! How cool is that! Up-cycling! Well for now I just try to make the best of what I have ...  Dress is second hand, jacket vintage and customized badly...  Cannot wait for warmer weather to wear this bad boy again! ...
