Gorgeous table settings

Love this table setting in my

 favorite color combination!

One of the things that I love to do is have a nice table setting that doesn't include anything disposable.  For me, one of life's frugal indulgences is eating with non-plastic utensils, cloth napkins, glass dinnerware and lit candles.  Really, it is cheaper to eat this way when you think about it.  The only thing is that you actually have to wash dishes . . . unless you have a dishwasher.  That would be me in this house!

Grocery Tote

Although we recycle plastic grocery bags to the max, it would be

nice to have a couple of these totes to try out.

This tote is much prettier than the ones they sell at the store and

look much sturdier.  

There is also a tutorial for a thermal version for your hot and cold

items . . . I would have never thought of that!  Great idea!

Bold and Colorful Silk Jacket

I love making "fabric" from recycled clothing!  

Although this jacket is made from purchased silk fabric, 

you could easily use the tutorial as inspiration and use

 what you already have in your stash.
