As the lives of many Aussies continue to be plunge

As the lives of many Aussies continue to be plunged into the belly of hell, our actions – no matter how big or small – are what matter now. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
No donation of money is ever too small, no donation of supplies too little, no thoughts, kind deeds or well-wishes ever too insignificant. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you haven’t yet donated to any bushfire appeals, below are some ways you can; anything you can do is worth something to those who have lost everything. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

We want to thank the heroes on the frontline, the people coordinating critical supplies, the absolute legend, @celestebarber who has raised more than $30million alone, those assisting wildlife, offering beds for weary heads, a place to shower, and to those who have already opened their wallets to donate what money they can. We can make a difference together. To those who have lost homes, businesses and loved ones, our thoughts are always with you. Jenny and Erica ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

As we wake again this morning, smoke fills the air

As we wake again this morning, smoke fills the air, bush fires still rage across our country and with no rain in sight, we can’t help but think about how important it is for all of us to do our bit to help preserve our precious water. Here are a few simple things we're currently implementing in our homes to do out bit. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
〰️ #putyourbucketsout - quite literally! Have a bucket in your shower to catch excess water - this can then be used to water your plants - indoors and out ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
〰️ time your showers - limit to 4 minutes. Better yet, opt for 1 shower a day. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
〰️ make sure your washing machines and dishwashers are full before turning on. Don't run half cycles, and if you can get an extra day out of those jeans - or t-shirt - just go for it! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
〰️ recycle unused water in water bottles for plants - this is great for succulents and indoor plants that don't require huge amounts of water. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We'd love to know what tips work for you. Tell us below.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
