I'm cheap. So any chance to save a buck or 2, I'm in.  I'm also concerned about the amount of garbage we produce. We recycle, give our kitchen scraps to composts or our farmer friends, and try to use reusable stuff. That's why I love this recipe for homemade foaming hand wash using my previously purchased hand soap pumps from Target.

Once I used up all the soap that the pumps came with, I used this recipe my friend Stacy gave me to make homemade foaming hand wash.

It's so easy.

Add 1/3 c Dr Bronner's liquid Castille soap, 1/2 tsp vegetable glycerine, and fill the rest of the container with water. A funnel helps.

That's it.

Simple, and cheap (once you've made the initial investment of supplies).

Do you have any quick, simple tricks for re using stuff around your home?
