19 tactics to use your cloth bags at the checkout and remain sane

Plastic bags are not biodegradable.  They float down waterways.

Is it time to have a conversation with your inner critic?

There is a lot I want to say when I look at the family photo taken in Singapore more than ten years ago.  The afternoon was blisteringly hot. I used to only see ourselves in this photo. It was the five of us perched on your back. A nice family shot from a holiday abroad.

 What I make:

Simple things …

... to lighten our footprint

Cloth bags and simple items to help us change our ways

... to create memories

Ephemeral scents, seasonal crafts, small gifts that create memories

... to explore

Wherever the thread takes me

How I see things:

I am Kate.  French native, creative, introvert.  I am on a journey to leading a life that is less wasteful. More ethical.
