One Person's Trash Another's Treasure
by Terese Hartjoy @ Thorne's World
From bloggers to businesses creative people find new ways to give new life to the "waste" of others. One person's trash becomes another's treasure as item by item people are saving space in the landfills by reusing, repurposing and upcycling.
Curbside finds get a new life with these rescued and repurposed home furnishings or this wicker chair and a spot of paint.
Dr Declutterbug has great ideas for cleaning up along with some photos of beautiful upcycled sculpture from the Leanin' Tree Sculpture Gardens in Boulder Colorado, and TransAction creates wearable body art from leather scraps that large leather companies would otherwise throw away!
Remember folks, keep it green with Simply Green!

It's so important for businesses to practice green techniques because they mass product products which means they mass produce wastes. That's why the topic of green techniques in business is advertised so heavily.
