Ok, so this post is actually a jump ahead in my Spring Break story that I started here and here. But it is quick, so I thought I’d insert it here and explain the bigger story of how it all started later.
First a few quick pictures:
What is all that, you ask? It’s table cleaner, that we use now at the end of our day! You should also see water in the picture, but I figured I could just mention it. I found a recipe for healthier household cleaner here and have been using it at home for a few weeks and LOVE IT! So once I got back to school after break, I figured we could use it there, too! We were already in the routine of wiping down the tables daily anyway, but now we’re doing it in a safer way. Plus it smells really good because of the pomegranate soap I used.
All of those wholesome things went from there to here:
I also picked up some cleaning cloths, so that we don’t use paper towels and have to throw them away every time. We’re so much “greener” this way as we wash out our cloths and reuse them!
Then when they’re done with the cleaning, the goodies now live here:
I LOVE how organized and clean this cabinet is now. Unfortunately I always forget to take “before” pictures so you can appreciate that, but believe me–this cabinet was fill with at least 10 years (or more!) of cleaning and science supply junk. I even found things with the name of a teacher-friend of mine on them who taught at least that long ago. Apparently I don’t open this cabinet very often. But I sure will now. 🙂 The only thing that it’s missing is labels. I hope to get those on there soon.
I mentioned at the beginning that this is a sneak peek of another part of my Spring Break fun, and that’s true. Can you tell what else I may have been doing around my house during my time off? Stay tuned to find out!
