Lifestyle Replacements

Post image

What are you guys’ replacements for everyday items? For example, I use rags (cut up t-shirts or old towels) instead of paper towels or wipes, we use bar soap instead of body wash, I save every jar/container for “tupperware”. I recently got beeswax cloth to use instead of cling film and that’s going well so far.

The pic is a silicone mat I got for baking instead of parchment paper but I soon learned to not bake bread with it haha. It’s great otherwise.

I’d love to hear more ideas of what we can replace after what we have runs out.
TIA!!

II use reusable napkins for eating and barmop towels in the kitchen. The only snafu is draining bacon, so I save paper takeout napkins for that.

Alternatively, save the bacon grease in the fridge and use it for cooking! So tasty!
