June, mid year, the perfect time to change things up—and your home is a great place to begin. Making sustainable choices doesn't have to be expensive or overwhelming. With a few simple swaps, you can reduce waste, save money, and create a healthier home for your family and the planet.
Here’s how to make your home more eco-friendly this spring—without breaking the bank:
1. Start Small in the Kitchen
The kitchen is one of the most used spaces in the home and also where a lot of waste happens. A simple and budget-friendly swap this season is switching from plastic sponges and brushes to plastic-free dish brushes.
At KOHA Kitchen, you’ll find beautifully designed eco-friendly dish brushes made from natural materials like bamboo and plant fibres. They’re tough on grime but gentle on the planet—and they look great on your countertop too!
Unlike plastic brushes that shed microplastics and end up in landfills, KOHA Kitchen brushes are 100% compostable, long-lasting, and replaceable, saving you money over time.
2. Ditch Single-Use Products
Swap paper towels for reusable cloths and plastic wrap for wax wraps or reusable silicone lids. These changes reduce daily waste and can last you through many seasons.
3. Be Water Wise
Fix any leaky taps and install water-saving nozzles on kitchen and bathroom sinks. Saving water also reduces your energy bill if you use hot water often.
4. Let the Light In
Make the most of natural light as the days get longer. Open up curtains during the day and turn off lights where possible. It saves energy—and boosts your mood too.
Sustainability isn’t about being perfect—it’s about making better choices, one step at a time. This spring, start with what you can. A simple change like switching to KOHA Kitchen’s plastic-free dish brushes can make a big difference over time.
