Works For Me Wednesday


Our city provides us with a recycling can that they pick up every week. We have a garbage can just inside our back door to put recyclables in. Sometimes, when we're far away from the recycling can and feeling a bit lazy, I admit that we throw things in the garbage that could be recycled. Recently I've decided that we need to be much better about recycling things and we shouldn't be so lazy about it.
I am in the midst of organizing my entire house, so as I get each room done I am making sure there is a garbage can and a recycle can in each room. I make sure I buy a small garbage can that matches the decor of whichever room it's in so it looks good.
Having a recycle can in every room has made it much easier to recycle things, even if we're feeling a little lazy.
For a lot of great tips, go over to Rocks In My Dryer and check them out.

That's a great idea. I find the easier you make things the easier they are to do. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful tip. I also have found the amount I recycle is inversely proportional to the effort it takes.

And I like your decorating note, "I make sure I buy a small garbage can that matches the decor of whichever room it's in so it looks good."
