A whole new thrifting world opens up when you learn about thrift flips: easy DIY projects to turn thrifted finds that have seen better days, either home decor or clothing, into brand new pieces. These thrift flips are easily accessible — even for those who don't have a DIY bone in their body.
Ideal for hot sleepers or folks going through menopause, bamboo is more effective at pulling sweat away from your body and drying quickly than even linen or cotton. Sleep sweetly in these bamboo PJs!

📝 A good question: Where have you found meaningful community? In person or virtually, it all counts.
From Kate Arceo, Community Manager
"One simple practice that's helping me stay organized in my sustainability journey is keeping a running list of secondhand items we're on the lookout for. When we visit the thrift shops or I'm browsing online, I don't have to try to rack my brain for 'that thing I wanted to remember to check for.' This helps me save on time, too — a quick browse for a plant stand, 5T pajamas, and a vintage rug and we're out the door!"
A reader comment we love:
"These are great reminders. Add on anxiety on top of everything…I worry that I'm not giving my kids enough fun experiences, that everything is going by so fast I'm wasting their childhood, how are we going to fit in everyone we want to see…I'm going to try a 'do my best' approach and focus on connection instead of constant activity!" - Sending you all the best LK, you're doing great!
