New season / pre-loved clothes 💃🏾
When you walk into @recycleboutiqueauckland and “It pays to recycle, It pays to recycle “ is wrapped through out the store 🙌🏽 Good fashion feels right here!

A new season is the perfect time to evaluate what clothing is really getting worn and bring out all those favourite winter coats & jumpers for another season of wear ❤️❤️

However, unless you’ve mastered the art of minimalism, you may have some good quality clothing lying around your wardrobe not being worn taking up space 🙋🏽‍♀️ My daughter had a pile and a couple of weeks ago took items in to @recycleboutiqueauckland. She now has made $126 and those quality clothes have a new home and continue to extend their life 🙌🏽 #onelessnewitembought

Yesterday I took in a basket, most pieces were taken and the value to processed. But it feels great for the first fashion store to visit this winter, was to recycle clothing and not need to buy anything new 💚 Will be taking another look once I get some @recycleboutiqueauckland credit 😍

Here’s a favourite Easter activity~ Ice Easter Eggs by @alittlewild.nz 🌸 Very easy to create.

Ice Eggs are like little icey gems full of natural colour and texture and are so easy to create. Swipe for steps 👉🏽 Simply empty out some eggs (keep the inside for baking!), wash out the egg shells, fill them with dried and fresh flowers and herbs, and then top up with cold water until they are filled. Pop the in the freezer overnight and in the morning, peel the shells off to reveal the frozen colour inside. Kids can then excavate their ice eggs or watch them melt in the sun – a beautiful way to explore states of matter and the colours of nature. - Sarah & Rebecca @alittlewild.nz

Loved this activity from our Good Easter guide from last year made with @theecosociety ♻️🌸

Happy @useyourowncupday ☕️🌎 Say no to waste, one cup at a time.
If you’re new or rusty to using your own cup, make today or this weekend a time to say no to takeaway coffee waste 🙅🏽‍♀️ Take your own cup, jar or dine in 💚 All praise to the cities, communities of the world that only have ‘have here’ options and haven’t embraced the environmentally damaging takeaway culture we have here in our beautiful part of the world 🙌🏽 The work we now have to do to get back to where we were....🤦🏽‍♀️ For solutions, inspiration& tips to avoid takeaway waste or reduce follow @takeawaythrowaways 💚💚
