Welcome to this month’s Bring Back Paper activity, a book swap. I love the book swap, because books are absolutely magical. Books are a place to lose yourself, to travel to somewhere new and to walk in someone else’s shoes for a short while. A book swap is a fun way to read something new, …
This is a collaborative post Thinking of taking your spring clean to the next level this year? Maybe you’re sick of the sight of your four walls (we’ve definitely had enough time to look at them this past year!). If you feel like you need a fresh start, just clearing out your old clothes might …
