When you find yourself inundated in cleaning supplies, one day you wake up realizing that you simply have too much 'stuff'. This certainly happened to me! I always grabbed things on sale, so I didn't think much of it all, in terms of its cost. But, I simply don't want to have to buy anything...and I certainly don't want to have to stockpile stuff even if its dirt cheap. But, the idea of going green from cleaning supplies can be a bit daunting. So, I told myself that I will slowly use up my supplies. But, when I run low on something, I'll be trying eco alternatives and playing around with ingredients to ensure that they are the best that they can be!
I'm dying to make a few things with recipes that I've collected either on the internet or from friends...but I've promised myself to wait...wait until I need them. First was the windex and the stainless steel cleaner. Watch and see what comes next!
A blog about my efforts at time-tested crafts, as well as leading a greener life.

Who am I?
I love Pinterest, because its a visual bookmark for me. But, once I find those items that I am really proud of and maybe, just maybe, want to make again? How do I separate them from the 2000+ pins I've already created? Well, a blog of course!
I always wanted to be crafty, and I always knew that I was capable of it...but when walking into a Michaels store, it just seemed so "crappy crafty", you know? I wanted something upscale. I wanted to create something that people wouldn't just think "how cute" but rather, be impressed by! I wanted to create things that people would really spend serious money on, rather than simply creating tchaktkes. So, I push myself to create things that are not so impossible, but intimidating enough that I have to learn a lot in the process.
Enjoy my trials and tribulations!
