readymade magazine asked different artists to recreate the populist poster art during the great depression. below are some of the resulting posters [my favorites!]. all are available from readymade to download for free so check them out!
i can't wait to frame this first print to hang up in our new house! i think the message is timeless and dead on. i have already started donating garbage bags [4 already!] full of clothing, shoes, and more to the local goodwill. i am really trying to live more simply and in turn, more conscientously! at the end of the day, i've already got everything that i could ever need.

have any of you recently made any attempts to simplify your life? if so, which changes had the biggest impact on your standard of living?

i love these posters. i don't feel like i've made any changes to simplify my own life recently, though i did get my guy to donate some of his overflowing wardrobe last weekend.
hey - that's a start! i've got that on my agenda to get j to reduce his side of the closet before we move.
Ohmygosh! Thank you so much for linking to these... I love them!!
these are awesome. thanks for posting...
i've been walking to work (grateful that i can), working on potting a patio garden & decided not to buy anything new (except shampoo & the like)...that's a few ways we've been simplifying...
living in la, it's hard to completely give up the car, but i'm looking for a used bike online, so i can ride to the grocery store...but my car runs on veggie oil!!
