| Description: | Arrange flowers. Ikebana has initially been used to produce shrine offerings, but you can practice it to connect with the earth and express yourself. Attend a class or pick up a brochure at the library to read about the techniques. Now is an excellent time to put away your beach bags. But before you do, I suggest emptying them, cleaning them off, and ordering the contents you've displaced. Toss lapsed sunscreen, worn-out goggles, and discolored swimsuits. Consider giving frayed or faded beach towels to a regional pet shelter.
If your beach umbrella, chairs, and sand toys can be utilized for an extra year, clean off the sand and dirt before putting them away. Wash towels and swimsuits that are in great shape and store them in a clean beach bag. Store totes and other vacation gear at the end of a closet or on a top shelf in your garage. |
