My name is Colleen, I currently reside in Newcastle Australia. I am a forty something year old mother of two grown children and in my third decade of being wife to my darling hubby. I love traveling, art and craft, spending time with friends and family and volunteering my time to help others.
My parents taught me well to make, mend, mingle and manage so being frugal, friendly and fun loving would describe me fairly well. I can also be opinionated, outspoken and defensive at times but hey no one is perfect. I look forward to getting to know you as well so join our friendly community here at 365 Less Things where we, that is Cindy, the readers and myself, share opinions, advice and lots of friendly encouragement.

I found a box today to put the Christmas Bear in that my mom received at the White Elephant exchange last year. She is going to take it this year to give away. I’m proud of her and so glad it is going out the door.
This was the start of ReGiftMas which is the first week of December among some friends. One had a closet full of brand new gifts she had never wanted so she invited everyone to come take anything they wanted/could use to give someone else. She agreed others could bring similar stuff.
This was the 10th year. It’s much fun. Most people (unless they are setting up a new household) have a goal of bringing more than they take. Many people have saved a lot of money by finding gifts others would love. It has expanded to include used things that still have lots of life left, and many a child’s toy has had many children enjoy it.
What’s left at the end goes to charity.
Everyone wins!
I love this idea!
Me, too, Calla!!! I have often thought this would be a good idea for small church groups, etc! I love it!
These are small, but I removed 2 key chain type things that were given to me. I also removed some note cards and 2 booklights. We had a 3 day Power outage from Friday afternoon last week to Monday afternoon this week (insert loud GROAN here!) and I discovered a small, adjustable headlamp works much better for reading!!
