isn't it green.....living....
Recycling has always been important to me (even before it became “trendy”! I still remember it was in 80’s that poly bags isn’t appeared in Hisar city, I got a yellow poly bag with my purchase from kumar store in Hisar, and then each poly bag was stored and I made yarn out of them and crocheted a rug, very beautiful one! ).
Regarding my ward-robe, I have always off loaded clothes/ stuff to charity (bagful to garbage collectors, and Krishan Parnami Ashram at village Kamari, some-time woolen stuffs to the baggars in winter).
Rag rug
Some times there are things I cannot give away or are too damaged , rough or worn…. these go in
my rag pile… once in a year or two I get out my
serger and my rotary cutter and make tri layer rags with nice serged edges… I haven’t bought tablemats/coasters/ door-mats/ bed-side-mats in over several years.
Some time, I cut out beautiful fabric pieces from the dresses, and give them to biggners( who couldn’t afford new purchases for practice) at sewing in our NGO’s sewing school.
Its very fun!
