Reduce, Reuse, Recycle…

…three strong values I have personally that I’m inspired to keep in my business life as well. Many of the props I use were bought at second hand store, (like once upon a child, which I love) thrift stores, garage sales, etc. I enjoy giving something a new life, by adding paint or new fabric to create a unique item. I’ve called on my family and friends in the past to let them know I am looking for items to Reuse in the studio, in hopes to make our landfills a little less.

In our home we recycle as much as we can, I’m proud to say we have much more recycling each month then we do trash. We’ve also began composting this spring to reduce our carbon footprint even more.

Now that we are in the new home(with 5 acres) and we’re remodeling our studio space, we discovered many things we’ll need that we didn’t need in the past. I am looking to you for any help locating these used items to purchase….
Riding lawn mower
Weed whacker
Chairs, Benches, Bean Bags
Fabrics
Wooden items, fence pieces etc
Paint, misc colors
Window frames, doors,

We are eager to buy them used from someone who may not need them anymore, or maybe you have something just taking up space, and would like someone to give it a new life. We are also on the hunt for a new family style vehicle, such as a mini van or suv, should you know anyone with one to sell, let me know! Thanks very much! Have a great Monday!
