Have an old pair of jeans you can’t part with???
Okay so I like many people have a fav pair of jeans that has passed its prime. I have come to terms with the fact that it is time to send them off to a better place. Unfortunetly, they are so past a state to donate to Good Will – they have holes and would not make it on the rack to be resold. So, I searched the internet in hopes for a jean recycling program. I thought I had heard that there were companies out there that would recycle jeans; with a little searching I found the perfect one: Cotton from Blue to Green. Here is an explanation of the program from the website:
“What Are We Going to Do With All This Denim?
All the denim will be donated to COTTON. FROM BLUE TO GREEN.®. This denim drive recycles jeans into UltraTouch™ Natural Cotton Fiber Insulation, which is used to help build houses in places that have been damaged by hurricanes, tornadoes, and other natural disasters. Your jeans will help set a record, keep clothes out of landfills, and build houses for families to live in!
It’s a Fact
It takes about 500 pairs of jeans to recycle enough denim to insulate one average-size U.S. house. So send us lots!”
Have a pair of jeans that you should really pass along? Now you have a good reason to do so. Click here for more info on the program. I am going to send my jeans in today. I feel good that my fav jeans will be put to a good use. Hurry and send yours in too. They have to be received by June 30th!!
“Attending” Virtual Photography Trade Show
It is always great to learn new things. I feel it is important to keep growing and challenging yourself. I just registered for an online photography trade show which fits in line with my environmental action plan that I recently discussed on my blog. No traveling required, the tradeshow is brought to you all online – presentations, classes, exhibits, networking all done from your compuer. If you are a professional photographer and would like to sign up for the tradeshow, here’s the link.
Happy Cinco de Mayo
Mexico needs some love today. In honor of Cinco de Mayo I wanted to post some pics of one of Justin and my finds from a trip. We both realized we have a soft spot for Mexican Art and fell in love with a butterfly covered skull. I know it sounds weird, but once you look at it, it just makes you happy and relaxed. You get memorized by all the fine details painted into such a small space. It was love at first site. If your a fan, you can check out more work by Alfonso Castillo. Happy Cinco de Mayo!!
