It's April, and around my corner of the globe, it's starting to feel like spring (at least every other day, in between the snow storms :) so this month we are playing MacGyver in a domestic turn with spring cleaning!
We have some great guests this month who will be sharing their tips and tricks about cleaning, laundry, and mending -- all while making do with what we have (or can easily and inexpensively procure) to use our resources wisely! Give a warm welcome (and a visit ;) to our lovely guests:
and as you are browsing their awesome blogs, think about how you can challenge yourself domestically this month. Now, domesticity definitely involves more than just cleaning, laundry, and mending/sewing... but we're devoting a whole month to MacGyver our kitchen skills, so, for now, think domestic but outside the kitchen. :) You could...
start (and hopefully finish) your spring cleaning project(s)
learn which common household products clean those stubborn stains
use more natural or make-at-home cleaners
start line-drying your laundry or make another financially and eco-friendly laundry change
or learn to make basic clothing repairs
And the great thing about the above suggestions is that our guests will be a jump start into all of these topics!
PS -- If you're interested in sponsoring a giveaway for Housewife MacGyver, this month or any month, please contact me at iamjustlu@gmail.com. The giveaway can be anything, not necessarily something that goes along with our monthly theme. Thanks!
Link up your baby steps to becoming more domestically MacGyver -- that is, more domestically self-reliant (as you clean, do laundry, and mend) by using your resources wisely. Tips that work for you, a system that you love, a creative use of a common household cleaner/cleaning item, or even a craft inspired by domesticity -- everything's welcome!
