So we all have our weird collections and hobbies a So we all have our weird collections and hobbies and things can get chaotic, or is that just me? 🤪⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I love washi tape but noticed I wasn’t using it as much as I would like to. Why keep an entire stash of something you barely use?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So I rethought how I was storing them (messy in old candle jars) and decided it was necessary to have an overview and to be able to access everything in a second.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Before I got out of my way to buy stuff to organize I look around the house to see what I have.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So that’s how I ended up using my old phone box (I kept these because I knew I’d be organizen soon!) and now I can grab the tape I want easily! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m starting to get into journalling a lot more and love making things a little prettier to look at, since I’m not the biggest art talent these are perfect 😍⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I have some old plastic ones but I won’t purchase those anymore for obvious reasons! What’s something you have a big stash of?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #organizing #cleaningout #minimalism #reuse #repurpose #recycle #slowliving #organizedhouse #washitape #usewhatyouhave #organizeforlife #interiorforliving #liveinyourhouse #loveyourhome #organizedhome #journalling #selfreflection #liveyourlife #diy #upcycled
I finished some cleaning products recently so I wa I finished some cleaning products recently so I was excited to try out @ecopods.be! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve been using the degreasing cleaner for a while now and I absolutely love it. It works well, smells fresh and doesn’t irritate my skin. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Now that I have a new empty bottle I also got the bathroom cleaner ready and thought it would be fun to show you how easy it is because I noticed some people around me were interested in how it works. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ They’re basically these small ‘capsules’ made from solvable material that, when put in water, immediately dissolve and mix with the water to make the cleaner! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I use old spray bottles that I reuse and them label them but they have bottles available and you could also get cute aesthetic bottles if you want! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This way you don’t waste a bottle everytime ánd all of that water doesn’t need to be transported! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Have you tried these yet, or maybe a similar concept? PS: I’m using an old @ecover_be bottle, a company I also love very much and recommend! #cleaning #ecocleaning #zerowastecleaning #diycleaning #diyproducts #diycleaningproducts #diynatural #zerowastehome #cleanhome #naturalhome #packagefreecleaning #organiccleaning #organichome #diyhousekeeping #zerowasteliving
Ordered some witch hazel en vitamin E from @lukse. Ordered some witch hazel en vitamin E from @lukse.be to try and help my skin with pure ingredients! Anyone have any experience using these? I’m currently (hopefully) in the last race to battle my lifelong acne, I’ve discovered food triggers, have been working on stress, sleep and hydration and have finally figured out some products that are working for me but I’m almost running out of toner so the witchhazel seemed great and the vit. E might just be what my scars need. Oh and definitely check out @lukse.be they just launched and deserve some love! #belgianwebshop #luxuryorganicskincare #luxuryskincare #organicskincare #cleanskincare #acne #belgianstore #shoplocal #supportsmallbusiness #lowwaste #organicbeauty
