Recycling clothing is important because many fabrics will take some time to break down in a landfill.  Reuse is an amazing idea that will take a piece of clothing from a short use item to something you can use for years and years.

 Some suggested ways include:

• Give it to someone you know who could use it.
• Donate it to charity or a thrift shop.
• Cut it into pieces and use it for making blankets and quilts.
• Make smaller clothing or items from used clothing

You have to get creative about how you recycle your used clothing.  Just try to think outside the box and see what possibilities lie ahead for that worn out pair of jeans or that old t-shirt.  You’d be amazed at what you can use used clothing for.
