T I P T U E S D A Y // Welcome to #tiptuesday, a series of our favourite tips, tricks, DIYs and things-we-wish-we-knew-earlier to make eco-friendly living *that* much easier! Have you ever peeled a label to repurpose a jar and that goopy sticky residue simply will not budge? We've tried it all - soaking, baking soda, rubbing alcohol... Until we discovered the magic of lemon essential oil. Add some EO to a cotton round and buff away the residue. Like magic, it'll disappear (instantly) and you'll be left with a like-new, delicious smelling jar! #ecofriendly #tips #sustainableliving #lemon #essentialoil #repurpose #reuse #glass #jar #hack #refillery #mindfulliving #ecohome #community #localshop #brickandmortar #generalstore #apothecary #gifts #ideas #nrothvancouver #northshoreliving
