When we spend time in nature with our kids we teach them two things, that we value them and the natural world. 🌎 . . . #wildswimming #waterfallwandering #kidsinnature #optoutdoors #natureplay #inspiredbygippsland #naturelove #natureconnection #youcantlovewhatyoudontknow #resilientkids #disconnecttoreconnect #gippsland #minniehahafalls #hiawatha #wellingtonshiregippsland #strzeleckistateforest #visitgippsland #leavenotrace #leaveonlyfootprints #riskyplaymatters #adventuringwithkids #adventuremamma #tinybigadventure

Drying out the last fronds of my dill to store in the pantry so they keep longer. I’ll collect the seeds when they’re ready too, they’re a great addition to homemade pickles, and of course I’ll use them to grow more dill. Homegrown herbs are nutrient dense, flavour filled, and great for your health! They’re easy to grow, save you money and a little goes a long way. They’re the first thing I get established whenever we move house. 🏡 👩🏻‍🌾🌱🌿👩🏻‍🍳 . . . . #herblove #herbgarden #dill #zerowaste #plasticfree #plasticfreejuly #lovefoodhatewaste #lovefoodhatewastevictoria #wastenotwantnot #goingzerowaste #zerowastelife #zerowastecooking #zerowastechef #guthealth #guthealthmatters

Perfectly imperfect 💕😁. While the sewing gear was out we turned some cardigans and jumpers that I hadn’t worn for a few years into covers for these floor cushions ✂️♻️. I have two more of these cushions waiting for more material to ‘present itself’ for their covers. It’s another example of my home-based circular economy... I used something I didn’t want, to create something I did want. It reduces waste and sticks it 🖕🏻to consumerism. It’s personal empowerment and freedom. It’s one example of the craftivism (activism using craft) throughout my home. Who would have thought there was so much meaning tied up in some homemade cushion covers, but it is there... . . . #wastenotwantnot #anticonsumerism #craftivism #makedoandmend #wastenotwantnotcreations #domesticcirculareconomy #homebasedcirculareconomy #choosetoreuse #reuserevolution #sewingproject #gippslandunwrapped #zerowaste #frugalhedonism #frugallife #repurposed #jumpers #diycushioncovers #selfreliance
