mid-week uncluttering

[fred_mouse]

What have you found to rehome at this point of the week?

I returned a couple of items to their correct people, but nothing more.

Progress! Who are you shipping the handmedown box to?

A dear friend who lives in a place with few shopping options. When her kids outgrow the clothes, she passes the clothes to her local friends--I love that so many kids will wear these clothes! In some cases, I think at least six kids will wear the clothes before the clothes are worn out. now THAT'S green living!

That's fabulous that the clothes go through so many kids, and actually end up worn out at the end. I hope they (and the friend) appreciate this too.

Oh wow, that sounds fantastic! I'm sure your friend and her local friends really appreciate getting those boxes!

That's how it used to be! We had handmedowns from friends and passed them on to younger friends. A t-shirt I had when I was a kid went via my old babysitter to her 3 kids, then back to my nieces, 30 years later (nylon, so it didn't wear out like cotton).

I'm thankful some friends give me their handmedowns and I've got people to give to. Most days I feel like I don't have much of a village around me, but I do have an extended village!
