What Are the Benefits of Diatomaceous Earth?

Introduction

Diatomaceous Earth, or Diatomite or Kieselguhr in German, is a chalky sedimentary rock made from the skeletal material of aquatic plants called Diatoms. Each particle has a structure that resembles a snowflake, rods and cones, and a honeycomb. It also has holes in it. When examined under a microscope, the particles resemble broken glass when they are crushed into a fine powder. Because of its extensive industrial knowledge, Seema Minerals & Metals offers natural and calcined diatomaceous earth, diatomite, and kieselguhr powder at the best prices. It is also one of the diatomite manufacturers in India. Due to its structure and properties, it is utilized extensively in industries, agriculture, and animal feed.

Uses of Diatomaceous earth:

There are numerous applications for diatomaceous earth. Diatomaceous Earth is used to make calcium silicate boards, fireproof safes and cabinets, brake liners, mold release in latex products, mold release in auto parts spun pipes, mold release in animal feeds as a carrier and directly used, aquaculture, coil coating paints, oil well drilling, in an oil refinery, as an anti-caking agent in fertilizers and animal feed, for grain storage, paper manufacturing, filtration of edible oil, pharmaceutical drugs, chemicals, and as a catalyst in the We process

Agriculture

In the nursery, DE can be used to control various bugs and irritations. It can be utilized, for instance, to eradicate slugs and snails from vegetable gardens. Additionally, mites, aphids, and whiteflies, which can harm plants, are eliminated by diatomaceous earth. If you're looking for Calcined Diatomaceous Earth in India, Diatomite Kieselguhr Manufacturers in India, and diatomite manufacturers, Seema Mineral is the company to deal with. The protective coating of DE Silicon Fertilizer Granules shields the surface from chemicals, gasoline, wind, water, and other elements. As a result, paint and other products that are subjected to chemical reactions and weathering can be used as coating materials.

Benefits of diatomaceous earth

Diatomaceous earth has been adapted to almost all industrial filtration applications, including the processing of oils, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, antibiotics, solvents, and chemicals. In the past, it was primarily used as a filter to clarify sugar and syrups. A second major application is as a filler or extender in numerous products, including paper, paint, brick, tile, ceramics, linoleum, plastic, soap, and detergent.

Conclusions

The fossilized remains of diatoms, which are small aquatic organisms, are what make up diatomaceous earth. Natural silica is the material used to construct their skeletons. Diatoms accumulated in the sediment of rivers, streams, lakes, and oceans for a considerable amount of time. These areas are used to extract silica deposits at the moment. Silica is very common in nature and accounts for 26% of the weight of the earth's crust. Sand, emerald, quartz, feldspar, mica, clay, asbestos, and glass are all examples of various forms of silica. Silicon, a silica component, does not naturally exist in its pure form. Silicon dioxide is typically produced when it reacts with oxygen and water. On the other hand, it might contain very little crystalline silicon dioxide.

Vasanti Brighten Up! Exfoliator

Price: $34

Claims: A gentle yet powerful facial exfoliator. This papaya and aloe enriched exfoliator will remove dead skin, reveal a radiant complexion and fight common skin concerns like dull skin, dark spots, acne scars, wrinkles & more. You'll see results after just one use.

Ingredients:

Aqua (Water): Primarily used as a solvent in cosmetics and personal care products in which it dissolves many of the ingredients that impart skin benefits, such as conditioning agents and cleansing agents. Water also forms emulsions in which the oil and water components of the product are combined to form creams and lotions.

Emulsifying Wax NF: Helps keep emulsions from separating into their oil and liquid components.

Aluminum Oxide: A crystalline compound of Aluminum and Oxygen. Primarily used as an abrasive and thickening agent, but also functions as an anti-caking agent and absorbent. It also acts as an insoluble carrier for mineral pigment, and is frequently mixed into mineral powder makeup. Because of its abrasive texture, many use these crystals to exfoliate and resurface the skin-particularly with Microdermabrasion.

Cetyl Alcohol: Fatty alcohol used as an emollient, emulsifier, thickener, and carrying agent for other ingredients. It is not an irritant and is not related to SD alcohol, denatured alcohol, or ethyl alcohol. Cetyl alcohol is considered safe for use in cosmetics.

Decyl Glucoside: Sugar-derived ingredient used as a gentle detergent cleansing agent.

Cocamidopropyl Betaine: Helps to clean or remove dirt and oil, creating foam when used with water

Glycerin: An emollient and humectant derived from vegetable oils that helps skin retain moisture.

Propanediol: A glycol that can enhance the absorption of ingredients into the skin. Propanediol can be derived naturally (from corn) or synthetically. It has hydrating properties that may leave a smooth, dewy finish. Propanediol is a well-tolerated ingredient, not likely to cause sensitivity.

Panthenol: Member of the B complex family of vitamins. A moisturizing humectant and emollient.

Glyceryl Stearate: It acts as a lubricant on the skin’s surface, which gives the skin a soft and smooth appearance. It easily penetrates the skin and slows the loss of water from the skin by forming a barrier on the skin’s surface. It has been shown to protect skin from free-radical damage as well. Used to stabilize products, decrease water evaporation, make products freeze-resistant, and keep them from forming surface crusts. Reduces the greasiness of oils used in certain cosmetics.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride: Derived from coconut oil and glycerin, it’s considered an excellent emollient and skin-replenishing ingredient. It’s included in cosmetics due to its mix of fatty acids that skin can use to replenish its surface and resist moisture loss. Also function as a thickener, but its chief job is to moisturize and replenish skin. This ingredient’s value for skin is made greater by the fact that it’s considered gentle.

Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil: Skin conditioning agent to maintain soft and supple skin.

Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe) Leaf Juice: Extracted from the leaves of the aloe plant; used as a skin softener, anti-irritant, and moisture replenisher.

Tocopheryl Acetate: Its substantiated benefits include enhancing the efficacy of active sunscreen ingredients, reducing the formation of free radicals from exposure to UV rays, promoting the healing process, strengthening the skin's barrier function, protecting the skin barrier's lipid balance, and reducing transepidermal water loss. Attributed with antioxidant, anti-aging, moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, and enhanced SPF properties, tocopherol acetate is valued both as a dietary supplement and skincare active.

Papain: Breaks down dead skin cells for easy removal, helps smooth your skin’s surface to uncover healthy glowing skin. Gently dissolves skin cells and debris, helps fade dark spots and evens out your skin tone. Also has natural acne treatment properties

Parfum: One or a blend of volatile and/or fragrant plant oils (or synthetically derived oils) that impart aroma and odor to products. These are often skin sensitizers because they are composed of hundreds of individual chemical components. Fragrance is a leading source of sensitivity to cosmetics.

Phenoxyethanol: A glycol ether and bactericide (that functions as a disinfectant, antiseptic or antibiotic) that is primarily used as a preservative. It is also seen as a fragrance additive.

Caprylyl Glycol: Skin and hair conditioning agent that may be plant-derived or synthetic. Often used as part of a preservative blend in cosmetics.

My Thoughts: I can’t recall where I received a sample size of Vasanti Brighten Up! Exfoliator, but I am glad I did because its pretty amazing. Vasanti Brighten Up! Exfoliator comes in a large white squeeze tube. It lasted me a long time even for something I used every other day. Its a gritty white paste that contains fine crystals. I only use a little less than a dime size amount each time, a little goes a long way so I never have to use more than that. I slightly damp my face then I scrub it in with small circular motions. I start in the center of my face then move outwards for about 2 minutes. What I love the most is how the crystal don’t dissolve away when I am using it. Once I am done I use warm water to wash it all off.

Vasanti Brighten Up! Exfoliator has some amazing results, on the first use I notice how incredibly soft my skin was. It creates a smooth canvas for my makeup, it takes away any flaky skin without drying it out. It quite gentle to use because it doesn’t make my skin red even for using it every other day. After 3 weeks of use I notice that my any acne marks I had were gone, however it didn’t even out my skin tone which was a bummer. It reduce my pores drastically, I never seen a product work so well for my pores. But no matter how long I used it I didn’t see a difference in wrinkles.

Would I purchase Vasanti Brighten Up! Exfoliator? Yes it works great in a lot of areas and last a long time. But I would only purchase it if it was on sale since the price point is a bit high.

Pros:

Large sample size

White squeeze tube

Gritty white paste

Contains fine crystals

A little goes a long way

Crystal doesn’t dissolve

Soft skin

Smooth base for makeup

Removes flaky skin

Doesn’t dry out skin

Gentle to use everyday

Cons:

Doesn’t help with wrinkles

Extraordinary Uses for Ordinary Things - Aluminium Foil

EXTRAORDINARY USES FOR ORDINARY THINGS

Learn how to use what's in your cupboard for every day uses

ALUMINUM FOIL

IN THE KITCHEN

Bake a perfect piecrust: To keep the edges of your homemade pies from burning, all you have to do is cover them with strips of aluminum foil. The foil prevents the edges from getting overdone while the rest of your pie gets perfectly browned.

Create special-shaped cake tins: You can make a teddy bear birthday cake, a Valentine's Day heart cake, a Christmas tree cake or whatever shaped cake the occasion may call for. All you have to do is form a double thickness of heavy-duty aluminum foil into the shape you want, and then sit the cake tin inside a larger cake tin.

Soften up brown sugar: To restore your hardened brown sugar to its former powdery glory, chip off a piece, wrap it in aluminum foil and bake it in the oven at 150 degrees C for 5 minutes.

Decorate a cake: No pastry bag handy? Just form a piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil into a tube shape and fill it with free-flowing cake icing. And the real bonus is that there's no pastry bag to clean - simply toss out the foil when you're done.

Make an extra-large salad bowl: If you've invited a large group of friends over for dinner, but don't have a bowl big enough to toss that much salad, don't panic. Just line the kitchen sink with aluminum foil and toss away!

Keep rolls and breads warm: Want to lock in the oven-fresh warmth of your homemade rolls or breads for a dinner party or picnic! Before you load up your basket, wrap the freshly baked goods in a serviette and place a layer of aluminum foil underneath. The foil will reflect the heat and keep your bread warm for quite some time.

Catch ice-cream-cone drips: Keep children from making a mess of their clothes on your house by wrapping the bottom of an ice-cream cone (on a wedge of watermelon) with a piece of aluminum foil before handing it to them.

Silverware care: If your silverware is looking a bit dull, try cleaning it using an ion exchange- a molecular reaction in which aluminum acts as a catalyst. Simply line a dish with a sheet of aluminum foil, fill it with cold water and add 2 teaspoons of salt. Drop your tarnished silverware into the solution, let it sit for 2 to 3 minutes, then rinse off and dry.

Keep silverware untarnished: Store freshly cleaned silverware on top of a sheet of aluminum foil to deter tarnishing. For long-term storage of silverware, first tightly over each piece in cellophane wrap-made sure you squeeze out as much air as possible - then wrap the bundle in aluminum foil and seal the ends.

Keep the oven clean: When you're baking a bubbly lasagna or casserole, keep messy drips off the bottom of the oven by laying a sheet of aluminum foil over the rack below. However, do not line the bottom of the oven with foil, as it could cause a fire.

Toast your own cheese sandwich: Next time you're packing for a trip, include a couple of cheese sandwiches wrapped in aluminum foil. That way, if you book into a hotel after the kitchen has closed, you won't have to resort to the cold, overpriced snacks in the mini-bar. Instead, use the hotel-room iron to press both sides of the wrapped sandwich and you'll have an instant, tasty, hot snack.

Preserve steel-wool pads: It's maddening. You use a steel-wool pad once, put it in a dish by the sink and the next day you find a rusty mess fit only for the garbage bin. To prevent rust and to get your money's worth from a pad, wrap it in foil and put it into the freezer. You can also lengthen the life of your steel-wool soap pads by crumpling up a sheet of aluminum foil and placing it under the steel wool in its dish or container. (Don't forget to periodically drain off the water that collects at the bottom).

Scrub your pots: If you don't have a scrubbing pad handy at washing-up time, just crumple up a handful of aluminum foil and use it to scrub your pots.

AROUND THE HOUSE

Protect a child's mattress: As any parent of a toilet-trained small child knows, accidents happen. When they happen in bed, however, you can spare the mattress- even if you don't have a plastic protector available. Firstly, lay several sheets of aluminum foil across the width of the mattress. Then, cover them with a good-sized beach towel. Finally, attach the mattress pad and bottom sheet.

Keep pets off furniture: Can't keep your pampered pet off your brand-new couch? Place a piece of aluminum foil on the seat cushions, and after one try at setting down on the noisy surface, your pet will no longer consider it a comfy place to snooze.

Sharpen your scissors: What can you do with those clean pieces of leftover foil you have hanging around? Use them to sharpen up your dull scissors! Smooth them out if necessary and then fold the strips into several layers and start cutting. Seven or eight passes should do the trick. Pretty simple, huh?

Clean jewelry: To clean your jewelry, simply line a small bowl with aluminum foil. Fill the bowl with hot water and mix in 1 tablespoon of bleach-free powdered laundry detergent (not liquid), such as Omo. Put the jewelry into the solution and let it soak for a minute. Rinse well and air-dry. This procedure makes use of the chemical process known as ion exchange, which can also be used to clean silverware.

Move furniture with ease: To slide big pieces of furniture over a smooth floor, place small pieces of aluminum foil under the legs of the furniture. Have the dull side of the foil facing downwards, as the dull side is actually more slippery than the shiny side.

Clean out your fireplace: An easy way to clean the ash out of your fireplace (braai) is to place a double layer of heavy-duty aluminum foil across the bottom of the fireplace or under the wood gate. The next day - or once you're sure all the ashes have cooled - simply fold it up and throw it away.

IN THE LAUNDRY

Speed your ironing: When you iron clothing, a lot of the iron's heat is sucked up by the board itself - requiring you to make several passes with the iron to remove wrinkles. To speed things up, put a piece of aluminum foil under your ironing board cover. The foil will reflect the heat back through the clothing, smoothing the wrinkles more quickly.

Clean your iron: Is starch building up on your clothes iron and causing it to stick? To get rid of it, run your hot iron over a piece of aluminum foil.

IN THE GARDEN

Create a sun box for plants: a sunny window is a great place for keeping plants that love a lot of light. However, since the light always comes from the same direction, plants tend to bend towards it. To bathe your plants in light from all sides, make a sun box. Remove the top and one side from a cardboard box and line the other three sides and bottom with aluminum foil, shiny side out, taping or gluing it in place. Place the plants in the box and put it near a window.

Build a seed incubator: To give plants grown from seed a healthy head start, line an old shoe box with aluminum foil, shiny side up, allowing about 5 centimeters of foil to extend out over the sides. Poke several drainage holes into the bottom - penetrating the foil - then fill the box slightly more than halfway with potting mix and plant the seeds. The aluminum foil inside the box will absorb heat to keep the seeds warm as they germinate, while the foil outside the box will reflect light unto the young sprouts. Place the box near a sunny window, keep the soil moist, then watch'em grow!

IN THE GREAT OUTDOORS

Clean your barbecue grate: After the last steak has been brought in, and while the coals are still red-hot, lay a sheet of aluminum foil over the barbecue grate to burn off any remaining foodstuffs. The next time you use your barbecue, crumple up the foil and use it to easily scrub off the burned food before you start cooking.

Improve outdoor lighting

Brighten up the electrical lighting in your backyard or camp site by making a foil reflector to put behind the light. Attach the reflector to the fixture with a few strips of electrical tape or gaffer tape - do not apply tape directly to the bulb.

Make an impromptu picnic platter: When you need a convenient disposable platter for picnics or school fundraisers, just cover a piece of cardboard with heavy-duty Aluminum foil Dubai.

Lipstick

For @otterandterrier‘s Scoundress Saturdays prompt - “Lipstick” And also my second take on that prompt in a totally different situation.

A/N: A while back I was inspired by photos of Carrie Fisher’s costuming notes, which included the sheets listing her makeup for the original trilogy Star Wars movies.

This is a trope that’s been done 1000 times. Here’s the 1001st.

Rating: T+

Timeline: Star Wars rebellion era, Empire Strikes Back. Millennium Falcon interior, the trip to Bespin

_______________________

Leia glared accusingly at the tube of Caramel Frost labelled lipstick. Twisted upward out of its encompassing chromed tube, it mocked her with its perfectly rounded, unblemished crown. She had just discarded it’s empty predecessor merely two days before. And now it was here again.

Jig is up, Solo. the princess decided firmly.

He’d been replacing her cosmetics; surreptitiously - of course. Probably for years, she surmised. Leia had to only borrow make-up once after her rescue from the Death Star. It was, at that point, readily supplied by fellow Alliance personnel eager to please their bereaved princess. Weeks later, when a small packet of items appeared at her work desk in a lamé satchel, she’d always thought it been Shara Bey, Evaan or Mon—another well-connected sympathetic female.

Not Mr.Testosterone-for-brains inconsiderate scoundrel Han Solo.

(Nice man,) that self-righteous voice in Leia’s head corrected.

When she’d requested to maintain a modest stash of personal items on the Falcon for their recurring missions, Han initially grouched, then relented. In the course of three years, her supply would periodically diminish, but never run out.

Even the cosmetics supposedly from back at Yavin magically regenerated themselves - with new expiry dates.

In her quarters…

When she was away…

Now she knew why.

She sorted through the small selection of powdered, liquid and waxen cosmetics. Another lip- color: Raspberry - she’d nearly forgotten this one. Then...at the back of the cabinet, a rust colored lipstick labelled as Cinnamon. Leia considered the items in her hand, idly wondering why the manufacturers named them all after food. She reached for the compressed facial powder, Hmm, “Blushbaby”. At least it's not named after an edible. That is, until the next was a caked rouge called Dewy Peach.

Leia scowled at the marketing ruse, returning the majority of the items to her designated shelf with a clatter.

Stooping, Leia rummaged through the waste receptacle at her feet. At the base she felt the familiar cylinder of the same shape as her initial suspect lipstick. Gotcha, she crowed inwardly.

Clasping the empty and the replacement in her fingers, Leia palmed the refresher door, determined to confront the ship's captain and his…

His…

She halted, uncertain.

(What? Generosity? Consideration?) Leia’s inner voice barked accusingly.

Shut-up, the haughty princess retorted silently. Give me a break. This is Han fucking-everything Solo. There is an ulterior motive at work here.

( Honestly, you have a problem with a man procuring you expensive cosmetics?)

Shut up!

(Really, girl. Have you even heard of another male on base doing such a thing?)

I don’t need this.

( Funny how Solo’s manhood doesn’t seem to be affected by this little surprise. Does it?)

No…

(You should thank him. You know he’s been doing this for years at this point. It is clear he’s respectful of your privacy enough not to mention it.)

PRIVACY?! How did he get the replacements into my locked quarters for the last three years then?

(....)

HOW? ...Well?

( Okay, I’ll give you that. It’s creepy. Make sure you’ve got him over a barrel when you ask him that.)

“Princess? “

Sliding the refresher hatch door aside, Leia jumped at first, then recovered her composure confronting the scoundrel in question. She jabbed the discarded tube of lip color into his face. Han’s hazel eyes followed it in, crossing slightly.

“What is this?” Leia demanded. Han plucked it from her fingers, investigating the tiny chromed cylinder.

“Empty?” He smiled gamely, displaying it to her as if addressing a small child.

Leia was having none of it. She crossed her arms and glared. After an increasingly tense moment, Han sighed defeat.

“Look, I heard you’d been asking around after we returned to Yavin the first night.” Han shrugged, running a nervous hand through his hair. “So I asked. ‘Cause I cared. ‘Kay? Shara told me what you needed, based on what you’d asked for that day before the ceremony.” Han fidgeted with the empty tube, he spiralled it in and out, then comically peered into the empty cup.

“You, have been supplying me with cosmetics?”

Han jerked up, pointing a lipstick smeared finger at her. “Yeah. Don’t get all uppity though, Your Worship. I had to call in a favor from Shara to get the plan rolling on this one.” Han grumbled under his breath, “Mon, put Bey on squadron escort with me, so Shara could come planetside for the purchasing. Then one of ‘em kriffin’ told her pals after. Oh hell, it was both of ‘em, I’d bet! Man, it was barely a week before I had hand-written flimsi orders from half the base.”

Now Leia’s interest piqued, so she probed further, “- orders from half the base?” she repeated. Recalling, a late-night visit from her longtime me friend, Evaan - were she asked if Leia desired any hygiene products not available readily onbase, as Evaan had an in with a cargo pilot...Han, as it turned out.

Drawing his shoulders square, Han straightened. “Yeah. Mon ordered Chewie an’ me to steam sanitize the number two hold first. What a pain in the ass! Said it was unsuitable for any cargo ‘til we did. When we loaded at Chandrila, that sucker was filled though. To the ceiling.”

Holding up the full tube of lipstick, Leia was incredulous, “You filled the hold with cosmetics?”

Han threw his hands up, palms forward. “No! There was a few cases of that - Shar’ and Evaan sorted it out. Most of the bulk, it was innocuous but necessary shit like detergents, cleaning supplies, minor ‘meds and bandages, and uh... It was the...uh.” Han coughed. He colored.

Leia put her hands on her hips, fixing him with a wry look; awaiting an answer.

“The female stuff. Y’know the hygienic... Um… supplies.” Han looked ready to self-combust with embarrassment.

Leia burst out laughing, and placed a sympathetic hand hand on his hip. “ Oh Han…”

“Janson and some of the guys had a field day with that one.” Han groused.

“Was that when the inside of his fighter’s cockpit got plastered with pads?” Leia remembered that well. After decent modern supplies appeared on base for the female personnel, a fair portion of the remaining bulky, cheap, primitive supplies ended up jammed into or pasted to every available surface of a few select vehicles of the fighter squadrons. Wes Janson’s being stuffed solid. The fighter pilot was left pulling out bits of absorbent material out of various crevices after every subsequent mission.

Again Han denied responsibility. This time Leia believed him. The Falcon was off in the outer rim on a mission at that time. Rumor had it that a number of female techs, pilots, and two officers colluded, executing their justice on behalf of the Falcon’s crew, and the offended general majority. A holo of Janson scraping and scrubbing the residual adhesive from his displays and control surfaces, circulated heavily on the Alliances social networks for months. It served as a stern warning to new members as well.

Chuckling, Han remembered, “ Kriff. Yeah. Ruined his rep’ - pretty much. Didn’t get laid on base for at least a year - man - even two.”

Recalling another set of memories from that era three years ago, Leia’s mouth betrayed a wonderment laced with the sour taste of jealousy, “ You were kept rather busy as result.” Han winced.

“That was a long time ago, Leia - “

Rising to her full one and half meters, Leia advanced on Han. The Corellian pirate stumbled backward across the refresher’s raised threshold, retreating from the diminutive noble in haste.

“Tell me. Was it the-, the two techs that cornered you outside the hangar?” challenged Leia in disgust.

A half-strangled noise croaked out of Han, his mouth made a couple of sputtering, failed starts.

“The first ones? No, uh… No. No. They got me outside the barracks for that - actually.”

Leia’s eyes widened, “Lt. Van’Dorin complained about three bunkmates dragging in a pilot. That was you!?” Han looked ready to flee - via the airlock if necessary. “I thought that was a bantha-shit story at the time.”

“Uh - Only two you said?” after an increasingly tense second, Han raised an eyebrow.

“...Three” the Princess growled out of the corner of her teeth, correcting him.

“Heh…” Solo wheezed weakly. He’d been an awful character in the morals and behaviour department at the time.

Realization hit her and Leia’s nose wrinkled in revulsion. “Stop...Wait. I don’t want to hear anymore.”

Han breathed a loud sigh of relief and made to beat a hasty retreat. On impulse, Leia batted the discarded lipstick tube out of his hand. The chrome tube clattered against the sink and down the wall, landing perfectly back inside the trash receptacle.

Mouth dropping open to protest, Han was suddenly shoved up roughly against the doorframe, by a pair of unexpectedly strong, yet petite hands on the lapels of his jacket. The lanky smuggler fumbled to brace himself on a section of his ship’s bulkhead. Leia smirked at his shocked expression, amused and elated as it melted into a confused consent. Lunging up at the smuggler, the princess’s lips firmly planted on his. He’d scarcely gotten out a half muffled, Leia–when her palms slid across the warm flesh of his right hipbone, and he let out a low groan.

Leia had no idea what was happening. Who this person was that was emerging out of her coolly maintained exterior since they’d left Hoth — she was becoming this woman. It was hard to stop, because maybe she’d had been there all along. And maybe – just maybe, Leia was finally comfortable with who she was.

She held him there, probing and nibbling at his lips, settling in along the heat stemming from the entire length of his body. She’d wanted this… Needed it…

This was what that woman wanted. That wild creature that lived inside of her. Leia was falling. Falling or fallen in love with a Corellian smuggler. Oh Stars, and she was falling in love with herself. In love with how she felt, who she was and also who she used to be. She didn’t have to allow the loss of her homeworld to define her. She could just be Leia and be content.

When they finally broke off, Han was more than a little breathless. His eyes were alight. Grin was half-cocked. His hair askew; tugged upright and all over by Leia’s fists. And best… best of all; was Leia’s Caramel Frost lipstick smeared all across that scoundrel’s stupidly happy smirk.

whoops i kind of failed fic-vember (so have an Anne fic)

Hey ya’ll. Finals happened and then the holidays happened and I gave up on the last week or two of fic-vemeber. Here’s an Anne fic to say sorry.

Like My Heart is Hitting the Ground

(Or read on ao3.)

Anne had been firm in her demand not to work the same shifts as one Gilbert Blythe. She’d managed to get away with it, most of the time, eyieng the schedule every time her manager made it and adjusting her availability as needed. Her intense dislike of Gilbert (Diana called it a grudge but Diana wasn’t there at the inciting moment) began his first day on the job, when, while she was dusting a new batch of scones with powdered sugar, he pulled her braid and called her “carrots.” He got a face full of powdered sugar in retaliation.

But it was Christmas (and therefore winter break at the university) and Anne and Gilbert were the only two in town to run the shop.

“This will work out just fine if you stay over there and I stay over here,” Anne said, gesturing to the imaginary line that divided the back of Avonlea Coffee and Bakery.

Gilbert’s dark eyebrow rose into the mess of curls that fell over his forehead. “So I take all the orders and you’ll make everything.”

“Yes, exactly.”

“What if you need help with something?”

“I won’t,” she said, tightly. “I can handle myself.”

“I didn’t say you couldn’t, Anne,” Gilbert said, meeting her eyes. She hated it when he did that. It reminded her that Gilbert Blythe wasn’t bad to look at. He had a crooked, self-satisfied sort of smile and his gaze was effortlessly warm and guarded by long lashes. And if she was being completely honest with herself (which she wasn’t, she usually counted on Diana for honesty) he was entirely her type: big knitted hand-me-down sweaters, dark cuffed jeans, Converse, messy hair, and a plastic watch with a million pre-set alarms. Anne was attracted to exclusively nerdy wannabe hipsters.

Gilbert Blythe had apologized for the carrots incident, profusely in fact, but Anne wasn’t in the habit of trusting too easily.

“Good, then count the cash in the register and I’ll wipe down the counters,” she said.

“The spray bottles are on my side.”

“Fine, will you please hand me a spray bottle Gilbert Blythe?”

“Why do you do that?”

“What? Say please?” She crossed her arms over her chest and planted her feet firmly on the tile. Her apron had a few leftover stains and one of her braids was starting to come undone, but she maintained her show of authority.

“Call me by my full name, like it’s some sort of comic book name,” he frowned.

“I don’t know what you’re referring to,” she replied.

“You know, Bruce Wayne, Clark Kent, Peter Parker, Charles Xavier...Gilbert Blythe,” his mouth quirked up into half a smile and Anne rolled her eyes.

“Give me the bottle, Wonder-boy,” she said, and he obliged. “And to answer your question, I’m just trying to maintain a professional work environment.” She began wiping down the countertops, briskly, with the intention of ending this conversation.

“Could’ve fooled me, Anne Shirley-Cuthbert.”

Anne had started working at Avonlea Coffee her second semester as an education major at the university. Her scholarships covered housing and a good portion of her tuition, and Marilla and Matthew had sent her off with enough money for textbooks, but she realized her summer job savings weren’t going to cut it the hard way. The second week of spring semester her card got declined when she was buying groceries. Luckily she was there with Diana (angel among men), who covered for her. The next day she sent out a slew of applications. Now she’d been at the shop for two and a half years.

“Welcome to Avonlea Coffee and Bakery. What can we get started for you?” Gilbert’s smile when greeting customers managed to hide the bags beneath his eyes.

“I can’t believe you’re open on Christmas,” the woman at the counter said. She was the twelfth to say so in the last two hours. Nevertheless, Anne had a steady stream of orders to make.

“If you want to switch, let me know,” Gilbert said, halfway through the shift. It was the third instance of Wham’s “Last Christmas” on the shop’s holiday playlist and Anne was tired.

Gilbert was counting the remaining scones in the case. They were down to five and she desperately hoped she wouldn’t have reason to put in another batch.

Outside it had begun to snow, big white clumps that reminded her of walking in Green Gables, at dawn when the snow was heavy and untouched, blanketing the grass.

She hadn’t been back to Green Gables since school started, though she called Marilla and Matthew at least once a week. She’d tried to get them set up on FaceTime, but neither was technologically savvy enough to complete a successful video call. The longer she was away the more her gable room showed up in her dreams: fluffy white comforter that smelled of lavender and detergent, tiny wood desk where she’d studied for her slew of AP exams, Marilla’s lacy curtains that just managed to keep the sunshine out in the morning, and of course the cherry blossoms outside.

“Do you have a ride home? Or are you walking in all that?” Gilbert asked. He looked out at the icy sidewalks and she watched his jaw tighten.

“I’m walking, but I’ll be fine. Thank you,” she replied.

“Are you sure? I’d be happy to...”

“What brings you to the Christmas day shift, Gilbert Blythe?” She interrupted.

“Oh,” he blinked. “Well, I could use the extra money.”

“You’re not going home for break?”

He shook his head and looked back down at the scones. “My dad died earlier this year and I...I sold the house, so I don’t really have a home to go back to. I have a friend back in my hometown, Bash, who invited me to stay with him and his wife for the holidays, but I thought it would be easier and cheaper to just stay here and pick up some extra shifts.”

“I’m sorry,” Anne said. “I didn’t know.”

He laughed nervously. “It’s fine. It’s good to be here when campus is empty, I can catch up on studying. Pre-med and all that. What are you doing here, Anne?”

“My...Matthew, my guardian, is sick and we don’t really have the money to spare for me to fly home. He’s fine, getting better I know, but having a whole big Christmas at home would be a lot right now and I didn’t want to cause my adoptive parents any trouble. Of course they protested.”

“Of course,” Gilbert smiled. “Who wouldn’t want to spend Christmas with Anne Shirley-Cuthbert?”

Anne rolled her eyes and turned away to restock the paper cups and hide the blush spreading over her face. The shop was just warm. “Are you all alone then?” She asked, after a moment.

“My roommates have all left for home, so yes,” he said.

Anne thought about Gilbert Blythe all alone in his apartment, pouring bowls of cold cereal or opening cans of Red Bull, or whatever sad, lonely, study food he ate.

“Well, if you like you can join my roommates and I. We’re all still in town and decided to do our own Christmas. They’re both working today too, so we saved the gift giving for tonight.”

“I don’t want to intrude.”

“You wouldn’t be,” she shot back, suddenly hell-bent on keeping Gilbert Blythe from a Christmas alone. It was sad enough not to have a home to go back to. “Join us, please.”

The front door bell dinged and another wave of customers came in out of the cold, putting the conversation on hold for a moment.

“What do you think?” Anne asked. It was nearly closing and she was halfway through cleaning the espresso machine.

“Okay,” Gilbert said. “If I can drive you.”

“Deal,” Anne said, extending her hand to shake his.

“You’re on my side,” he said.

***

Gilbert Blythe started work at Avonlea Coffee and Bakery at the beginning of his junior year. It was his second job. He worked assorted evenings at the automotive garage down the street from his apartment, and divided his remaining time between a full schedule of classes, homework, and the occasional handful of hours of sleep.

The day he met Anne Shirley-Cuthbert she had flour on her freckled nose and was expertly crafting a latte. She didn’t pay him any attention as their boss trained him, and continued to effectively ignore him the first shift they worked together.

“Do you know Anne very well?” He asked his co-workers during their break. Billy and Charlie were vaping in the alley beside the shop. He sidestepped clouds of vapor and tapped his foot.

“She’s bossy. She’s worked here forever,” Billy said. “I hear she’s got a whole orphan sob story. I’d keep my distance if I were you.”

“Not much to look at anyway,” Charlie put in.

Gilbert considered this for a moment. “Well, I should be getting back.”

“We have five more minutes,” Billy said.

“I know, I’d just rather spend my break inside, and not with you two.”

He tugged on her braid to get her attention. Childish? Absolutely. But he couldn’t think of another way, and he’d never purported to have the best judgment.

He hadn’t worked with Anne much since, but he’d seen her at the end of her shifts, when he took over for her. She was great with customers; she knew all the regulars by their orders and their names. She added special touches to all the cakes she decorated: buttercream roses, dainty chocolate work, tufts of spun sugar. And Anne always looked pretty in a way that he had to try really hard not to stare at all the time. When it was warmer she wore long, flowy, floral dresses that fell to her knees and clashed with her heavy work boots. In the winter she wore the same dresses with tights and cardigans and long scarves wrapped around her neck. Her hair was almost always braided. He’d seen it down once, curled on her birthday when their boss had brought her a box of her favorite lemon cupcakes.

“You can turn here,” Anne said. She was in the passenger seat. Her dress was red with tiny black flowers. The navy cardigan and coat she had over it nearly swallowed her small frame. “My house is on the right."

This was a pity invite, he knew, but there was still something exciting about Christmas with Anne. Maybe they were turning over a new leaf.

Anne scooped up the box of discount pastries she’d salvaged and led him up the steps to her house.

“Anne’s home!” He heard a call from the kitchen and a woman with dark hair and unevenly cut bangs looked back at them. She was stirring a pot of something that smelled like apples and cinnamon and she seemed to be Anne’s stylistic opposite: heavy eyeliner, dark turtleneck and pencil skirt, nose piercing, and ruby red lipstick. “Oh, hello. Who’s this?” She said.

“Diana Barry, this is my co-worker Gilbert Blythe. Gilbert, meet my roommate Diana.”

“Gilbert,” Diana repeated, giving Anne a look Gilbert couldn’t read. “Nice to meet you.”

“Likewise,” he replied.

“He’s joining our band of stranded misfits for the evening,” Anne said. “If that’s alright.”

“It’s alright with me. Just be warned that Jerry’s on his third glass of rosé already, and quite torn up about his most recent breakup.”

“Jerry’s an international student. His family's in Paris. He doesn’t fly home for breaks usually,” Anne explained.

“And my family’s abroad in London,” Diana said. “A trip they planned before they knew I’d paid for January term classes already. Either way, it’s much nicer to be with my lovely Anne.”

“It’s much nicer to be alone together,” Anne concluded.

“Alone?” Came a strangled howl from the living room.

“Anne, will you tell Monsieur Heartbreak that this apple cider will be done in five minutes and he better have his present for me wrapped by then?”

Gilbert followed Anne into the living room to see her other roommate sprawled face down on the couch. He turned his head toward them when they came in and moaned.

“Anne of Green Gables how could you bring a new beau to this sacred gathering of singles?”

“He isn’t,” Anne said, at the same time as Gilbert said “I’m not.”

Jerry rolled onto his back and put his head in his hands. “I am destined for suffering.”

“Wrap your present for Diana. Cider’s ready in 5 minutes. This is Gilbert, my co-worker. Please refrain from regaling him with stories of the many sorority girls who have broken your heart until I get back. I need to get my presents from my room.”

Diana brought the cider and offered Gilbert a glass of rosé, which he accepted along with the ten minute recounting of Jerry’s failed relationship. Anne came back and sat next to him on the couch. They all had wine and cider and cookies that Anne made with a recipe from home. Diana ordered pizza and over the exchange of gifts Gilbert learned a number of things:

1) Diana was a music student who studied classical piano for class but made her own songs on synth and guitar in her spare time. She came out as a lesbian last year and went to her first Pride with Anne that summer. Thus her gifts from Anne and Jerry were (respectively) a framed photo of Anne and Diana covered in glitter with bright grins and pride flags, and a pair of musical note earrings.

2) Jerry was an English major, despite the fact that he was dyslexic and it was his second language. He met Anne freshman year in their professor’s office hours and had had a spirited debate about Jane Eyre, which they continued over lunch every week while she edited his (otherwise excellent) essays for typos. He had the unfortunate habit of falling for sorority sisters and writing them embarrassing poetry that often found unsympathetic audiences on ex-girlfriend’s Instagrams post-breakup. Anne got him a mug covered in Brontë quotes and Diana got him a journal and a mood ring she insisted was stuck on “love struck.”

3) Anne’s friends really cared about her. They got her a joint gift, a silver heart locket that made her face light up when she opened it. “For all your love, kindred spirit,” Diana said. Gilbert couldn’t take his eyes off of her.

“Could you do the clasp for me?” She asked him.

“Of course.”

Anne swept her curtain of red hair from her neck and Gilbert undid the clasp and put the necklace on her. He had some trouble doing the clasp up again because his hands were suddenly very sweaty and Jerry, seated next to Diana and thoroughly drunk by now, started laughing as Gilbert could feel his face heating up.

“I’m cutting you off, Jerry,” Anne said as Gilbert finished with the clasp. “I’m going to put on some music,” Anne said. She rose to her feet and turned around to look at the three of them. Her form was glowing in the light from the kitchen and her hair became a halo of orangey light around her head. “Any requests?”

Gilbert shook his head dumbly and Anne disappeared into the kitchen.

“Mon amie, you are gone on her. I can tell,” Jerry said. He got up with Diana and the two of them began swaying to the song Anne had chosen.

“I’m not...I don’t...”

“Oh leave him alone,” Diana put in. She winked at Gilbert.

Anne had returned. “What do you think? It’s my usual playlist.”

She outstretched her hands and pulled him up off the couch. “Do you dance, Gilbert Blythe?” She asked. Her face was flushed too, no doubt from the wine, and she held him by his waist.

“Sometimes...” he muttered.

“I’ll have you know that tonight means nothing in the grand scheme of things.”

“The scheme of things meaning you’re always going to be angry with me?”

“If you keep giving me reasons to be,” she said, but she was smiling.

“What song is this?” Gilbert said. His head was buzzing.

“It’s called Townie,” Anne said. “I put Mitski on all my playlists.”

“We rotate,” Diana said. “Whenever we’re all together and need to play music.”

“Like at work,” Gilbert said.

“Like at work,” Anne repeated.

There's a party and we're all going And we're all growing up.

Anne swayed close to him. “I’m sorry, again, by the way. For pulling your hair like a grade schooler. I really didn’t want to get off on the wrong foot with you.”

Somebody's driving and he will be drinking And no one's going back.

“You didn’t?” She asked. “I was sure Billy and his goons had turned you against me.

'Cause we've tried hungry and we've tried full and nothing seems enough.

“Billy’s a dumbass."

So tonight, tonight The boys are gonna go for More more more.

“Well I guess we can agree on one thing.”

And I want a love that falls as fast As a body from the balcony, and I want a kiss like my heart is hitting the ground.

I'm holding my breath with a baseball bat, though I don't know what I'm waiting for. I am not gonna be what my daddy wants me to be.

The rest of the night blurred out in a haze of laughter, dizzy dancing around the living room, and Jerry pulling him aside to lecture him in slurred, half-French about the perils of love.

“Merry Christmas Gilbert Blythe,” Anne said, as she saw him off.

“Merry Christmas.”

***

The next week Anne and Gilbert had more shifts together. When it was his turn to pick the music Anne heard Mitski on his playlists, in between his old music.

“Why is it that all of your music sounds like it belongs in a 50s diner?”

“Hey, I don’t complain about your music.”

“Yeah, because my music’s good,” Anne said. She was assembling a batch of macaroons as quickly as she could. Since Christmas they’d been engaging in a number of competitive games. Right now it was timed macaroon preparation. Yesterday it was who could make the most complicated latte art.

“I’ve got to beat you now since you beat me yesterday.”

Gilbert leaned against the counter beside her. “What did you expect, Anne? A doctor has to have steady hands.”

“Yeah, yeah, time! How fast was that, Gil?”

“Gil?” Gilbert repeated, smile growing wide on his stupid face. “Since when do I have a nickname?”

“You don’t! I...didn’t. Did I beat you?”

Gilbert glanced down at the time. “You got me, Anne. Well done.”

As it had turned out, Gilbert Blythe wasn’t the absolute worst. The past couple of times they’d worked together she’d let him drive her home. He had one of those tree shaped air fresheners hanging from his mirror; it smelled like apples and cinnamon. He always cranked the heat up to make sure she wasn’t cold, though she never was. That’s what Gilbert Blythe was becoming to her: apple cinnamon and warmth, wrapping her up as he turned into her driveway.

“Do you have plans for New Years?” He asked.

“Diana’s spending the night with her girlfriend and Jerry’s with his French friends. They both said I could tag along but I don’t want to feel like the odd one out,” Anne said. She’d been the odd one out against her will for years; she wasn’t about to do it voluntarily.

“Well, if you want...I mean I was going to ask you if...uh, if you wanted to come to my place for New Years, in exchange for Christmas.”

“You don’t owe me anything.”

“I know that. I’m just...” he flushed. “Asking, Anne. I didn’t really have a plan. Pizza, probably, and champagne, watching the festivities on TV.”

“And at midnight?” She met his eyes.

“At midnight I can drive you home,” he said quickly.

“Okay,” Anne said, before her brain fully processed what she was agreeing to. She didn’t want to ring in the new year by herself, not when every day of the past year had been nothing but work (good, rewarding, exhausting work) and the coming year promised more of the same.

“Okay?” Gilbert replied. “That easy? I thought I was going to have to bribe you.”

Anne rolled her eyes. “Don’t make me change my mind.”

Diana insisted that Gilbert Blythe’s invitation was more than it seemed.

“He obviously likes you,” she said, sprawled on Anne’s bed playing Nintendogs on her beat up DS.

“He’s my friend,” Anne said, flipping through the hangers in her closet.

“Then why are you so concerned about your outfit?”

Anne sighed.

“It’s okay if you like him too, you know?” Diana sat up and looked at her. “I know you think you don’t have time for romance, with school and work and Green Gables, but you deserve something all consuming and tender and warm and...” Diana trailed off. They’d known each other for years. Maybe Diana knew her better than Anne knew herself. “I don’t mean to pry. I’m sorry.”

“Don’t be,” she said. “Thank you. Happy new year.”

Diana hugged her goodbye. Anne stared at herself in her bathroom mirror and debated whether or not to put on red lipstick. When she was younger she’d look in the mirror and hate her face: mud splatter of freckles, tired eyes, fiery hair framing her features. Now she and her face were on better terms. Would lipstick tonight be overkill? She looked at herself intently. An all consuming love, that’s what Diana had said. Anne smiled, and put on the lipstick.

***

Anne sat cross legged on Gilbert’s couch with a breadstick in one hand and wine glass in the other. He tried not to grin.

“What? Why are you looking at me like that?” She said, but she was smiling. There was a crescent of lipstick on her glass’s rim. “I thought you were making dessert.”

“About that...” he said, taking a seat beside her. He held up a package of Oreos. “I’m not much of a baker on my own time.”

She laughed and selected a cookie from the package. “I’ve got you beat in the desert arena then. I make pies back at Green Gables.”

It was 11:30. She’d spent part of the night teasing him for the poorly hidden heap of laundry in his bedroom and overly animated voice on the phone when ordering pizza, part of it playing cards and watching TV with him at his living room coffee table, and part telling him stories of Green Gables.

“I’m sorry my New Years is so boring,” he said. On TV crowds were huddled in the snow, waving noisemakers and throwing confetti.

“It’s not,” she said. She moved so her shoulder was pressed to his on the couch. “Thanks for having me. It’s nice not to be alone. I wanted to have the holidays at home this year. I feel like all I do is work and go to class now, like I'm racing to an invisible finish line. It’s hard to be away. And with Matthew sick I...anyway, thanks.”

"And what if you get to the finish line and it isn't everything you thought it would be?" Gilbert added. "I know the feeling." He sucked in a breath. “It’s the first holiday without my dad,” he said. “I’m glad I’m not alone either.”

Anne put her hand over his. It was small and warm and he didn’t move a muscle for fear she would take it back.

“What’s that song?” He muttered. “That Mitski song, from Christmas?”

“It’s called Townie,” she replied.

“Do you want to listen to it? Would you dance with me, Anne? Like at Christmas?"

She looked over at him and smiled. “It’s nearly midnight, Gil.”

He’d become Gil, so quickly, without either of them knowing. He’d become someone she looked at softly. She’d become someone who made his heart feel like it was jumping around in his chest.

“But okay,” she said.

He didn’t know when the clock struck midnight. He was swaying with Anne in his living room. Her head was on his shoulder. His heart was hitting the ground. When the song was over she tilted her head up to blink at him.

“I have to work tomorrow,” she said. “At 7, But I don’t even care.”

“Can I kiss you, Anne Shirley-Cuthbert?”

“Yes, Gil, you can.”

He did, and she kissed him back. He took her face in his hands and kissed her for a long time. It still felt too short.

“You have lipstick on your face,” she told him. Her own face was flushed and her lipstick was smudged. “Happy new year.”

“Happy new year, Anne,” he said. He could hear fireworks, but it could just be in his head. It was a firework kind of night, new year or no new year.

“It’s going to be a good one,” she said. “I have a feeling.”

Top uses of Cinnamaldehyde in Perfumes & Soaps

The organic compound that gives cinnamon its flavour and odour is cinnamaldehyde. This pale yellow viscous liquid can be found in the bark of cinnamon trees and other Cinnamomum plants. Cinnamaldehyde makes up about 90% of the essential oil of cinnamon bark. Cinnamaldehyde is used as a flavouring in chewing gum, ice cream, candy, and drinks, with concentrations ranging from 9 to 4900ppm. It's also used in some natural, sweet, or fruity perfumes. Cinnamaldehyde is a fungicide as well. Cinnamaldehyde can also be used as an antimicrobial.

Cinnamaldehyde is an oily yellowish to greenish-yellow liquid with a heavy cinnamon scent, sweet and spicy flavour, and a burning sensation. It's insoluble in water and glycerol but soluble in propylene glycol and miscible in ethanol, ether, chloroform, non-volatile oil, and volatile oil. It can also volatilize with water vapour.

Cinnamaldehyde has a strong cinnamon oil scent and a burnt aroma, and it's commonly used in spices, everyday chemicals, feed, and food processing.

Perfumes

Aldehydes can be found in various organic products, including rose, citronella, cocoa, and orange rind. These compounds can also be synthesized and used as ingredients in sweet-smelling perfumes and colognes. Russian perfumer Ernest Beaux popularized the use of aromatic aldehydes in perfumes when he produced Chanel.

Manufacture If Resigns and Dyes

Aldehydes are versatile molecules that can produce resins, dyes, organic acids, cologne, detergents, and soaps, among other things. Formaldehyde is the most widely developed aldehyde in the industrial world. Formaldehyde is noted for its antibacterial and preservative qualities, and formaldehyde-based chemistry is used in various products, including composite and engineered wood products in construction.

A Pleasant Scent

When used as a raw material in flavouring, cinnamaldehyde has a strong fragrance-holding effect, making the main fragrance more fragrant. It may also be used as a fixative because its boiling point is higher than that of other organic compounds of the same molecular weight. Cinnamaldehyde, for example, can be used to make soap flavours such as narcissus gardenia, jasmine lily of the valley rose, and others, which are commonly used in soap, washing powder, and shampoo. Cinnamaldehyde can be used in the food industry to make fruit flavours like apple cherry, which can be used in candy, ice cream, beverages, chewing gum, and cakes.

Creating Various Flavors

Cinnamaldehyde is a flavouring agent that can also be used to sterilize and deodorize the oral cavity. It's commonly used in toothpaste, chewing gum, air fresheners, and other oral hygiene products. Chewing gum containing cinnamaldehyde can be used as a functional health food that can improve oral hygiene quickly. It can not only mask bad breath but also eliminate the bacteria that cause it. Cinnamaldehyde has been used in toothpaste for a long time in factories both at home and abroad with excellent results.

Cinnamaldehyde is, of course, commonly used in other areas. Cinnamaldehyde products have a large market room and strong future growth prospects, thanks to ongoing scientific research and demand from downstream industries.

Cinnamon fragrance oils, rather than essential oils, can be bought from companies that sell fragrance oils and cosmetic supplies. These are a lot less annoying and a better way to get a cinnamon scent. It's worth noting that certain cinnamon fragrance oils may cause irritation when used in higher concentrations due to small amounts of cinnamaldehyde or other irritants, so be sure to follow the supplier's and IFRA's use guidelines.

Written by R. Ann Parris on The Prepper Journal.

Editors Note: Another guest contribution from R.Ann Parris to The Prepper Journal. As always, if you have information for Preppers that you would like to share and be entered into the Prepper Writing Contest with a chance to win one of three Amazon Gift Cards with the top prize being a $300 card to purchase your own prepping supplies, then enter today!

One of the challenges when we get into preparing for disaster is keeping everything neat and organized. In some cases, we’re trying to maintain our own or a spouse’s sanity and keep some of our preparations neat, tidy and organized without being in plain sight while short on space, either square footage or because we rarely allow something to leave our grasp. Beyond the ease in counts and condition checks, and avoiding a hoarder’s larder, organization can help us with both rotating supplies and in some cases even rationing our supplies should we fall on hard times.

Happily, there’s lots of stuff out there that can help us. Repurposing some items that are inexpensive, commonly found curbside and at flea markets or yard sales, or that we might already have laying around can help us maintain that organization without breaking the bank.

Maps & Rolls

Keeping our wrapping paper neat and tidy might not appeal to preppers, but we can steal some of the ideas out there for keeping our maps, charts, and our property plats accessible and tidy. There’s one where you take an old wire shelf and affix it vertically to a wall or door instead of horizontally. The 250ml wine boxes are ideal for keeping both maps and wrapping paper contained and neat, and most alcohol retailers are simply delighted to let you have boxes.

Cutting the bottoms out of hanging shoe organizers lets us customize height. That one has added benefits because you can leave pouches intact to keep map pens, sprays, and dry erase markers and erasers right there with them. It also allows some mobility, so they can be re-hung by a work board, in a radio or control room, or at the desk and table where you do your planning.

Hanging Shoe Organizers

You have to watch the weight in these guys, but otherwise, the sky is the limit. They can hook us up in pretty much all wedges of our preparedness “health” wheels. I’ve got some in use for “daily” life, too.

One’s in the kitchen keeping small packets of instant cereal and snack foods and the last bar of one kind or another from either getting lost in the abyss or from having the boxes continue to eat up space. One’s for winter, and keeps hats, scarves, and gloves neat and organized. The bottom row holds some quick slip-on slippers for household members and the dogs’ various booties. There’s another set up with each person’s preferred garden and yard work sets of gloves and pocket detritus.

For preppers, the value goes up further. With stick-on labels or clothespins, we can use them to track dates for at-a-glance organization. We can also take a space where we would be limited to boxes or shelves and turn it into basically a rack for them. A couple of freebie curbside-pickup filing cabinets, a bar or two to go across the top, and we can string our organizers on dowels or sturdy branch/sapling trimmings.

The filing cabinets here are actually reading nooks, but it gives you an idea of how the addition of a plank (freebie-pickup shipping pallets, walls/shelves from curbside bookshelves) and a curtain (surviving sheet from a wrecked bedding set) can keep it from being “ugly” even if it’s out in a home where somebody cares. If appearance is less of a concern, some suit hangers and any ol’ pole can be hung in sheds, basements or a storage room to accomplish the same – a flip or slide-through storage area for small items.

Those items can be anything. It can be a great way to keep veggie seeds separated by planting/growing season and year. We can use them for sewing supplies or art supplies. Instant drink packets, seasoning packets and shakers, granola bars, little packets of vitamin-rich gummy treats, boxes and packets of pudding or gelatin mixes, and other kitchen items fit easily. We can arrange them to be a general category like snacks or spices, or we can set each up by expiration or best-by date.

Educational goodies, supplies for the radio room or office, entertainment items, hygiene items, and especially first-aid and medical items that do start separating or losing efficiency are all other options for storing someplace we can find and see them easily and check those dates without pawing through boxes.

We can use hanging closet organizers much the same way to buy some extra space, although they’re not as handy for the tiny little items and still have the weight restrictions.

We can also use them to help us ration, just like we can with canning jars. We can pack each with a week, a month, or a quarter’s “goodies”. That can be seasonings or instant helpers like gravy or dressing mix. It can also be things like chocolate chips, tea bags or a brick of coffee, smaller packets of cookie, edible cake decorations, or Slim Jim’s. Some of the shoe organizers are big enough we could even seed them with fresh games like Qwixx or Dog Bites Man, new decks of cards, some specialty feel-good lotion or chap stick, or something seasonal to brighten the mood.

Another option is to use a shoe organizer as a pre-staging area. Rather than those things that jump in buggies getting tossed in a box or drawer for a while, they can get slotted by category. It can also help with those items that seems like a great idea but then hide when we want them. That can be everything from eyeglass repair kits and those mini sewing kits, to things like outlet and light-switch wall plates, overhead pull cords, and those plastic twisty-cap wire connectors that like to multiply in drawers and tool rooms.

Curtain Rods

While we’re hanging things to improve our organization, we can keep an eye out for curtain rods. With some rings and-or big S-hooks, they can help us in all kinds of spaces. We can mount them in our bathrooms – and our outdoor camping/solar showers – to drape bathroom organizers and avoid having stuff sit on ledges and floors. With hooks affixed to light baskets and tubs, what we can hang for easy access increases even further. Those baskets can easily be the bathroom organizers or oddball dishwasher or silverware baskets that show up here and there or wire or plastic bins form the dollar store, and get used for school and office supplies, kitchen spices, each individual’s hankies and bandanas, or anything else we like.

We can arrange them under cabinets or against walls to keep items like spools of thread, bungee cords, and weed-eater wire accessible. With hooks or loops, we can add our extension cords, gloves, and tools. By our doors, they’re another easy way to keep hats and gloves organized, and the airflow they’ll get will let them dry faster.

While I specified curtain rods, be flexible while we’re upcycling and repurposing. I see swingsets and bed frames on freebie listings and by the curb on a regular basis. Tree trimmings can yield nice, straight pieces. The scrap guys in town will let us have pretty much whatever we want at about a halfway between their cost and sale price. Be flexible.

Garage & Shed Storage

We can use all kinds of oddball wrecked, found, used, or inexpensive items for storage, although the garage and shed where we don’t have to hear anything from family members really shines. We can use coat hangers and hooks with a piece of looped rope, chain, or bungee cord to keep heavy extension cords, hoses, and heavy rope neatly coiled and off the flat surfaces. A wrecked binder offers three rings that can hold anything, from our bungee cords to cleaned cans with a hole punched that can then hold our paint brushes, garden pruners, gloves, or safety glasses.

You have to pretty much murder somebody to find them now, but a plastic 2L soda bottle is awesome for allowing us to stack and move bottles and for keeping stuff in a pickup or van right where you want it. They can also be screwed flat to a wall to use the holes as shallow storage nodes, but they’re too shallow to have much value for me there. Instead, see if a plumbing outfitter or company has PVC scrap. It’s usually deeper and you can cobble that into a honeycomb with some screws and get a lot more use out of it.

Throw-Aways

All kinds of things that hit our recycling and trash have other uses, particularly in keeping our storage neat and tidy. The cardboard boxes that soda comes in get a lot of play for upcycling into soup and veggie can organizers, but we can also just slit the top off entirely. Swiffer pad tubs are awesome for stacking and labeling the sides, but really only for lightweight stuff. Old-school laundry detergent boxes with the flip-up lid and the little plastic handle are sturdy, stackable, and you can hook that handle around a screwdriver on your belt or a carabiner for hands-free carrying. Plastic coffee cans, jugs, powdered parmesan shakers, and creamer tubs are hugely versatile.

Indoors or out, they can help us organize absolutely anything. Arrange packets of Lipton and Knorr sides, seeds, Heartgard and Frontline, or spice blends. Keep extension cords, tow cables, tie-down straps, or Christmas lights neat and tidy, and ready to deploy again (which buys time and space for other stuff). They can also help us keep kits of commonly replaced items together.

The plastic options can help us keep pests out of dry pantry goods and little packets of drinks or boxes of pudding. Those plastic bottles are also handy for rationing out things like brown and white sugar that last forever in storage, or once we bust into bulk bags or buckets of snack foods and dry goods.

Drink bottles get a lot of play for organizing wire, ribbon, and cord. If you have access to wide-mouth juice or sports drink bottles, those make excellent ways to keep some ammo in a bag nice and dry – but don’t try it with narrow-neck water and soda bottles, not even with .22 LR. There’s nothing wrong with using them for beans or grains, either, since they stack up like cordwood well.

Mostly, though, I think people seriously underestimate how much water they need. I may be the only person affected by Uncle Murphy on a regular basis, but you need water stored even with a well, because you need time to hunt down the problem and repair it if the pump goes down. So, for the most part, I’d rather see soda bottles get used to store water, everywhere, in homes and in vehicles.

Organizing Preparedness Supplies

The time spent in organizing not only makes maintaining our storage a little less daunting and time consuming, but also allows us to better visualize gaps. The sanity boost from neatness and not being overwhelmed by our piles o’ stuff can’t really be overstated, either, and less-involved family is less likely to add to our stresses when they’re not overwhelmed by it all, too. Since there’s so many items out there that we can scrounge for free or little outlay and repurpose, we really don’t have any excuse not to keep our storage organized.
