Below is a list of items that have helped me as I learn to live The Simple Life. These items are not necessary - in fact, part of living simply is being content with what we have and not filling our lives with more stuff. However, these are some ideas to help you live a simpler and less wasteful life. Before you buy new, look for some of these items at garage sales or local thrift stores. Then purchase locally if you can before buying online.  I do believe that if it's a needed item, it might as well be beautiful and something you enjoy because we can also use necessary living items to decorate our home!

I don't have all of these exact products, but I do have similar products and find them incredibly useful in helping me simplify and reduce waste! These are affiliate links, so I'll make a small commission if you purchase anything through these links! Many of the items for the kitchen are referenced in The Simple Eating Guide.
