Make your home greener this July

In less than two weeks time, the Kinder Living Show will be in full swing at Horsham’s Drill Hall. As it enters its second year, homeowners are invited along on the 2nd and 3rd of July to find out about new ways to make their homes green! From saving energy to heating and renovation, there are many ways you can make more efficient choices for your home. As a result not only will you be kinder to your wallet, but also to the planet!

Whether you’re looking for ways to completely change your lifestyle or just want to make some positive environmental changes in your household, the Kinder Living Show is the best place to start. With many stalls on offer, we thought we’d give you a quick lowdown of the types of stands you can visit:

AW Design & Upcycling

Upcycling is a hobby that’s picking up greatly. From websites such as Etsy offering upcycled goods to videos online showing you how to do it yourself, it’s a great way to make good use out of old household items.

Find out the amazing ways AW Design & Upcycling can take some of your old items and upcycle them for you, or find amazing items you can buy for your home! From vintage camera tripods becoming lamp holders or trumpet mouthpieces being transformed into coat hooks, you won’t believe what these people can do!
