Thrifting, Slow Living, and Sustainability

Sustainability Made Simple and Real

Living sustainably shouldn’t feel like an exclusive club or an impossible challenge. At Old World New, I explore how intentional choices—like thrifting, slow living, and reducing waste—can align with our values and fit seamlessly into real life. Through practical tips, DIY projects, and honest conversations about corporate accountability, my goal is to empower you to live sustainably without the guilt of perfectionism.

Meet Addie Fisher

Eco-Living with Heart

I’m Addie, a sustainability advocate, homeschool mom, and thrift enthusiast on a mission to make eco-living approachable. Through Old World New, I share my journey of slowing down, making intentional choices, and calling out systemic issues that affect our planet. When I’m not crafting a new DIY project or finding treasures secondhand, I’m homeschooling my kids. Join me as we embrace a greener, more meaningful way of living—one step at a time.

Discarding the top of strawberries has been the norm my entire life. But why?

Eating the tops of strawberries is one tiny sustainable change that didn’t take a lot of effort. 

What’s one small eco-conscious change you’ve implemented that made you say “Why didn’t I think of this before?!” 💡✨
