Crazy! But, it’s a beautiful winter wonderland with blue skies today. Caught these lovely does on my way to tennis this morning trying to navigate 6 foot snow drifts.

Look at ALL THE THINGS they recycle!!!!! I'm thrilled about this. For complete info scan the QR code below or go to <a href="https://www.sephora.com/beauty/pact-collective-recycling-program">THIS LINK</a>. I know it's hard to read in the photo but they take (empty and cleaned) little tubes, jars, mascara tubes and wands, eyebrow pencils, pumps, dispensers, colored glass jars, makeup palettes, compacts and even dental floss containers and empty toothpaste tubes. SOOOOOO cool, right? I'm bringing a bunch of things there this week. Make sure you clean everything out before you drop off. Have a green day!

Too much fabric, too many unfinished projects, etc. Sound familiar? I had a shirt from Big Girl's (Margaux's) undergrad days that she no longer wears. She put it in the Goodwill box but I pulled it out thinking I could do something with it. Finally, this morning I made a first aid kit out of it. I saved the buttons for future use. Margaux is going to be a Girl Scout camp director this summer and thought it would come in handy to put in a back pack for hiking. </p><p>Included in the kit: sunscreen, first aid lotion, bandaids, hair ties, safety pins, nail file, lip balm, matches, ear plugs, sewing kit (sliver tube) and ibuprofen. Think I got it covered? Turned out pretty cute and useful!

It was so fun. They brought me most of the fabric they had picked out. The daughter has a 3 year old who is into dinosaurs (obviously). The daughter wanted a teeny size of the stand up pouch in the butterfly fabric. I have never made them that small but they turned out great. I also got to make a couple of my quilted shoulder totes that are lined and have a button closure on the front. Such fun ladies to work with and cute fabrics too. :) What are you working on?

If you would like to read some of the things from last year, go to <a href="http://greenbaglady.blogspot.com/2023/06/greener-update.html">this post</a>.</p><p>1) I think I have finally settled on my favorite shampoo bar/conditioner bar situation. If you have followed along on this, I've tried Viori, Earthling Co, kit•sch and Attitude. I found the Attitude brand at my local Natural Grocers store. I LOVE the smell of the sandalwood scent which is why I decided to try them in the first place, second, they were on sale for only $10/bar. Score! I really like them. The only downside is that the conditioner is not quite moisturizing enough for my dry hair. I tried kit•sch in the fall and do like their products too but felt that the conditioner made my hair too soft and the shampoo bar didn't last very long. Jeez. But, I have settled on a combo of using a bit of both conditioners together, works perfectly!</p><p>2) I got a <a href="https://lomi.com">LOMI </a>for Christmas! We are now composting again, yay! Many of you long time readers will remember that we had 2 backyard composters when we lived in Nashville. Then, we moved to a CO neighborhood with lots of wildlife and composters are not allowed by our HOA. I started seeing information about LOMI about a year ago and was fascinated by the compact, countertop idea. I asked hubby for it for Christmas and got this cute blue one. I LOVE it! We have been making dirt out of all our food waste about every other day. Hubby was worried that it would smell, but it doesn't at all. I've put a lot of the dirt in my plant collection and the rest is on my deck in a bucket waiting for spring planting. It's really SO COOL.<br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbrAlAri0ZSgMrO2RSP1w_3rrqcqjORHEfTKjk0cLegxaDZCnSeMlshDR1aZHk78xkABsN9PMhq9fynjThScb4YABkSmn9uXKuSKveVhMEBGD7M3vOXFOnE_Uz0TSsrIkuWk3Y4MlIDrB70JqhMBXPnxp-8oqaFj_VFEMxFk3s59OjlWePbdG5Fcpe43TD/s4032/IMG_3564.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbrAlAri0ZSgMrO2RSP1w_3rrqcqjORHEfTKjk0cLegxaDZCnSeMlshDR1aZHk78xkABsN9PMhq9fynjThScb4YABkSmn9uXKuSKveVhMEBGD7M3vOXFOnE_Uz0TSsrIkuWk3Y4MlIDrB70JqhMBXPnxp-8oqaFj_VFEMxFk3s59OjlWePbdG5Fcpe43TD/w480-h640/IMG_3564.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQtGSUc4S7D5SK1oAFkt6sQDtj98iGmRA7OA2Irq3jr_yE-WdpTztROQFG5AzSY2zjoSVmfsVz6BZ5A1m5OYK1Z4iMRE8YBuw_HjKszcH4R8KmGA2h-NQ-ibkOuQ3L-vFR32ICqze_xOephOMIGoMXjQeEEdIO08QKPZ2eEEaACMKrPDzuUE1rpST6TRGG/s5712/IMG_3521.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="5712" data-original-width="4284" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQtGSUc4S7D5SK1oAFkt6sQDtj98iGmRA7OA2Irq3jr_yE-WdpTztROQFG5AzSY2zjoSVmfsVz6BZ5A1m5OYK1Z4iMRE8YBuw_HjKszcH4R8KmGA2h-NQ-ibkOuQ3L-vFR32ICqze_xOephOMIGoMXjQeEEdIO08QKPZ2eEEaACMKrPDzuUE1rpST6TRGG/w480-h640/IMG_3521.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6202334394202768670.post-86177702658362307192024-01-29T16:52:00.004-06:002024-01-29T16:52:46.974-06:00UPDATE: Aztec, NM Chapter<p>Look at all these great bags Bagette Jan in New Mexico has been making.

It is one of her <a href="https://www.inspiredbetweenthepines.com/product/intention-prayer-wheel-in-sterling-silver-narrow-version">beautiful prayer wheels</a> with my son's birthdate, initials and death date inscribed on it. I love it. What a sweet gift from a sweetheart. As many of you know, my son Kyle passed away less than 6 months ago. It has been a tough journey but my family and I are moving through grief with as much grace as possible. The amount of support I have felt from all over the world is truly amazing. Thank you Janet, you are so kind and talented. I will wear the necklace with pride.

First set is for a Nashville friend who is having her first granddaughter. Yay! Other one is for my longtime tennis instructor who just had a grandson. Babies!</p><p>4) I've started make tiny zip pouches. These are XXS size (4"x3"). I've had XS ones (5"x4") in my etsy shop for years. I just couldn't stand to get rid of small scraps of such cute fabrics, enter XXS! These are perfect for medicine, earbuds, jewelry, lip balm, etc. I have one by my bed and I love the size. Win, win.</p><p>6) Travel theme bags to hand out on planes when hubby and I take trips. Of course, Bagette Danny has been <a href="https://greenbaglady.blogspot.com/2023/04/airplane-bags.html">doing this for years</a> and I'm finally getting on board. But, then again, Bagette Danny is much cooler than I am. :)</p><p>7) A slew of bags. I have had several bolts of fabric hanging out in my basement for YEARS that need to get used. It's so much easier to cut and sew the smaller pieces that pile up that the bolts tend to get forgotten. Not anymore! One of my goals for 2024 is to use up bolts!<br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQA_uaA9liRuFjGM5470zt_NbFvBTwOC_h5W5yrBpVgkHDrMVCWEtPYVh8n6OWalkVk3rS8hRTtrrtMD91SnkoENRQMfMUPq6ojAIXC9LCUHjHxZ7I6NhB7AhBhelr2Sz_fGEX93nMJu7b-2vycp43aRxFm0m-h_oNLaxClLy5jGv0HcN7p-UYYzrKHgVv/s5030/IMG_3420.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

XOXO—Teresa</span></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRMwRiJPmSL1DNMNkfz4KifVS0C4lINiANtG6URoM4Qi_VTpHHhJ9nRvoyWQ-MKpWZJoxCKp_0vFszixiXPVUlLfuyFz6WDao3t7o4XjQeE7AkzPN1wkqXd9xwGrBEut1D68dXTTFsFZqptIt9XpNKZ1aRSrjLO-ldxJSXbJpgtqattSLLhCWXSxLd1aTK/s3695/IMG_3210.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3695" data-original-width="2994" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRMwRiJPmSL1DNMNkfz4KifVS0C4lINiANtG6URoM4Qi_VTpHHhJ9nRvoyWQ-MKpWZJoxCKp_0vFszixiXPVUlLfuyFz6WDao3t7o4XjQeE7AkzPN1wkqXd9xwGrBEut1D68dXTTFsFZqptIt9XpNKZ1aRSrjLO-ldxJSXbJpgtqattSLLhCWXSxLd1aTK/w518-h640/IMG_3210.jpeg" width="518" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ20FwJDudV2O0plMn6GKnPnlK_6N2YZIhUhc2CfzAFBprpI57UnR-XV_3CKwxCzcFKwc641a75wgbBeLwSIioMRfqmlNYgp8HJCWEoC__lKyz9KIO31VsT7z-8iKC-qYB-q3YIanafJcu1s0Wpeu487fg9AchVitJ589EuUah_KnAkDd0znW1yxMOadER/s3556/IMG_3221.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2837" data-original-width="3556" height="510" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ20FwJDudV2O0plMn6GKnPnlK_6N2YZIhUhc2CfzAFBprpI57UnR-XV_3CKwxCzcFKwc641a75wgbBeLwSIioMRfqmlNYgp8HJCWEoC__lKyz9KIO31VsT7z-8iKC-qYB-q3YIanafJcu1s0Wpeu487fg9AchVitJ589EuUah_KnAkDd0znW1yxMOadER/w640-h510/IMG_3221.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheAyMXrML12a5c_uixVjC5_0B_CHc5UAUt6oYHM8PdoxXsg6rtH_kKjfFCzZfX1wxTSH1fVBFNXHjfgnXOCStZFf61I_kanxicibmvF22GTCdfjvsdxeaRTj88D4GCZXGshal4SnTNI6QPRZABa2YfRxtbEFVR6I1B3ES2TG_ajYHgF-mrYE6NNsrzLo-l/s2628/IMG_3205.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2628" data-original-width="2105" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheAyMXrML12a5c_uixVjC5_0B_CHc5UAUt6oYHM8PdoxXsg6rtH_kKjfFCzZfX1wxTSH1fVBFNXHjfgnXOCStZFf61I_kanxicibmvF22GTCdfjvsdxeaRTj88D4GCZXGshal4SnTNI6QPRZABa2YfRxtbEFVR6I1B3ES2TG_ajYHgF-mrYE6NNsrzLo-l/w512-h640/IMG_3205.jpeg" width="512" /></a></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6202334394202768670.post-17900393804206096662023-12-16T19:32:00.001-06:002023-12-16T19:32:28.000-06:00Photo Finish Friday <p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I hope your weekend is going well so far. I just finished my final dress to be altered! Now I can enjoy my daughters coming into town this week and not feel guilty about anything. 😊😊 I still have a few gifts coming in the mail but I’m pretty much done wrapping (in the same fabric bags that I made in 2007…) too. I will make sugar cookies to decorate and some other goodies with my girls this week. Squuuuueeeee!❤️💚🎅🏻😊 Teresa</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOtxnnkOfudkkSG5VD_qPUa9rzFKIyUecdCE5-d9ciEDuQZkQ6pHYOQrPKowx40nuwWAOFQ52Nm3iwFxUruPF9utkGwLKa3NBL6a4wzc3rXUUUqqvvM0yLUauYW7NIVryKeLbnwBime-YtytMlmVR9bjF4OlYE36K2ATB0XR5tdZIMT31u7cUfXcDk-5YR/s4032/3173C02B-750A-4593-BFCB-0E519730FA4A.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOtxnnkOfudkkSG5VD_qPUa9rzFKIyUecdCE5-d9ciEDuQZkQ6pHYOQrPKowx40nuwWAOFQ52Nm3iwFxUruPF9utkGwLKa3NBL6a4wzc3rXUUUqqvvM0yLUauYW7NIVryKeLbnwBime-YtytMlmVR9bjF4OlYE36K2ATB0XR5tdZIMT31u7cUfXcDk-5YR/s320/3173C02B-750A-4593-BFCB-0E519730FA4A.jpeg" width="240" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje9GnMluciYXz2b8-uQ7aXO3a3LHl9DL59QkrzYbDfDL6ZNlz3CQRi2Ajl8Ez7Q-Yhg9XpmgXEp6dTLsGxy7H-soL9Y08tLvbb5dkWQ_YnvkJxRiJ8U1m2Jf0OjzoROEjHmhAGuFyFyX7mskDwXJfK3_AuiQ8qX9dsRL4yTOc3tesAuXU_RdmxUn6FQe35/s3758/013370E0-7A8F-4E53-97E6-1307CAEDE004.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2823" data-original-width="3758" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje9GnMluciYXz2b8-uQ7aXO3a3LHl9DL59QkrzYbDfDL6ZNlz3CQRi2Ajl8Ez7Q-Yhg9XpmgXEp6dTLsGxy7H-soL9Y08tLvbb5dkWQ_YnvkJxRiJ8U1m2Jf0OjzoROEjHmhAGuFyFyX7mskDwXJfK3_AuiQ8qX9dsRL4yTOc3tesAuXU_RdmxUn6FQe35/w640-h480/013370E0-7A8F-4E53-97E6-1307CAEDE004.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1
