1. Old costume jewelry (chandelier earrings, sparkly bracelets, necklaces & pearls)
2. Picture frames
3. Old CD’s
4. Fruit such as tangerines, grapes & cranberries
5. Food such as popcorn, cookies, colored pasta & candy
6. Flowers such as roses, poinsettias, baby’s breath, vines and pine cones

GREEN DOMAIN ENERGY SAVING TIP OF THE WEEK!

Save ENERGY While Cooking!


Use microwave ovens, small electric pans, or toaster ovens for small meals rather than your large stove or oven. A toaster oven, for example, uses a third to half as much energy as a full-sized oven. Call Green Domain to test your combustion appliances during your Home Energy Assessment!
