Spring is in the air! And what comes with a new season for every green girl? Time to rejuvinate inside and out....you that is! If you tend to sit back more during the cold weather months, now is the time to clean out and get organized....and get active for a new spring you!
To be a green girl at heart, you can do some of the following:
Organize your clothes and re-new and re-use! Donate your old clothing to shelters and those in need. Throwing them in the trash (unless they're really in bad shape) doesn't help the environment, so contact your local shelters or organizations to donate what you don't want anymore. What a great way to help the environment and, those in need!
We all love to shop for new clothing, but if you're in to vintage wear, check out vintage shops and consignments. Alot of clothing donated are top labels and are in great shape. You can also check out the hundreds of organic clothing shops now in abundance on the web. For a starter, check out http://www.sustainablelivinginteriors.com/ for pages of cool, chic organic clothing options available.
Clean out your make-up supply and start fresh! And remember, toss those plastic bottles in the recycling so as not to clutter up the landfills.
Start a compost bucket or area in your yard. Virtually anything is compostable so create some clean space and compost, compost, compost!
These are just some of the things you can do to start out green this spring! Happy Greening!
