The summer months are a great time to stock up on seasonal produce when it is at its peak, abundant and cheap. But did you know that you can stock up on avocados and freeze them? Simply cut the avocado in half and remove the pit; place the halved avocados (with the skin still on) inside a plastic freezer bag, and squeeze as much air out as possible. The fruit will freeze well and be good to use for up to three months.

At the end of a wedding, one custom includes throwing confetti or rice at the bride and groom. This can be problematic since dried rice can make wildlife sick and paper confetti can be almost impossible to clean up. One solution is to buy organic grass seed to toss instead. Grass seed is safe to throw, and it will land on a lawn that likely needs to be reseeded after the event.

Bored with your white lampshade? Give it a splash of color and a custom look that only takes a few minutes to make. Fill a spray bottle with hot water and a few drops of fabric dye. Test the color on a scrap of fabric to see if you like it. If you do, take the shade outside and spray it with the dye solution until it's saturated. Once it dries, you'll have a unique look to light up your home.
