Off to Earth Day this morning, to take in 3 computers and a bunch of other dead electronics for recycling. Also have old petroleum based products and a few old wheelchair tires to turn in. I do this every year, and it's amazing how much accumulates every year! #earthday

Earth Day? It should be EARTH WEEK!

Let’s talk eco-friendly ways to elevate your space:

1️⃣ Embrace eclectic decor – Thrift unique pieces, mix and match. It’s stylish and sustainable!

2️⃣ Prioritize quality – Invest in artwork made to last, ideally for generations.

Thanks for taking a moment to consider small changes that can save our world. 🌿✨
