Of course, when you have four or more bags of clothes to donate, it's better to donate them to a charity such as The Salvation Army or the American Red Cross or such organization that reaches out to millions of poor and homeless people who need all the help they can get.auto donation programhttp://www.cars4causes.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5751827646716123495.post-44723667533856874272010-02-13T18:04:29.652-05:002010-02-13T18:04:29.652-05:00While I have been working on my basement clean-up ...While I have been working on my basement clean-up challenge, I too, discovered a LOT of really yucky (but clean though mostly unwearable clothes) and my youngest sister suggested that I bag them and donate them to the Pet Shelter. This is also a great way to pair down your family's used scatter rug and "worn-beyond-recognition-stuffed-animal" collections...but just be sure to properly launder the stuffed animals if possible before donating (those instant dry-cleaning-in-your-dryer kits work well)...as the stuffed animals make great companions/toys for new born puppies and kittens, etc. and warm fuzzy rugs provide warm, comfort and security.<br /><br />Also, I take the zippers buttons off and store in my "button/sewing box," and I save the pure cotton, wool, silk and other natural fiber materials in separate bags and recently gave a 100% cotton "rag" bag to my cleaning service as an extra thank you tip for going the extra mile to clean and SANITIZE my home--it was much appreciated as the service goes through rags quickly and 100% cotton is great for so many cleaning projects...just be sure to save a few for your own use.<br /><br />Also, although almost a lost art, but worth investigating if you are the crafty type, is using the especially colorful and nice fabric pieces in handmade patch-work quilting or for rug weaving. Additionally, I find large torn sheets and shower curtains are great to retire for use as paint drop cloths and you can use those space-saving vacuum tight bags to store the various types of materials in any number of sizes and can easily label them for donating, crafting, or painting. <br /><br />Just some thoughts,<br />GinaUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11727354030231334717noreply@blogger.com
