If you're like me you don't really mind sending your out dated styles to your favorite charity. I actually get a warm fuzzy feeling when I donate nice clothing that I no longer wear to a local women's shelter. Sometimes though an item just screams for me to keep it. Sometimes it's because of the memories or the fabric, but sometimes the item is torn in a way that would be too tacky to wear or use even if it were mended.

I have that problem with a favorite set of high thread count sheets that I adore, but have suffered an accident, so I was pretty jazzed to discover Julia Faye who has made an adorable summer frock from bedsheets! And how about making super snuggly baby toys from those old cashmere sweaters? I love it.

Remember folks, keep it green with Simply Green!
