My favorite wanted posts this past week
Wanted posts are super popular in our group. Sometimes we forget how invaluable they are in reminding us that someone wants something that we don’t use anymore, but haven’t gotten around to posting an offer for it.
I especially like the posts that ask for an item to re-use in a creative way. My favorites this past week were:
WANTED: old wool sweaters — if you have any wool, mohair, angora – any all animal fiber old sweaters that you don’t want to keep – any condition – moth eaten is fine – you can recycle them with me. I am going to be teaching kids to knit and need the sweaters to felt for them to cut out designs for embellishments. Any colors are fine. —Rena
and
WANTED: feed bags — Don’t toss them! I’m looking to recycle some of those woven plastic animal food sacks. Bird seed comes in these, also some chicken feeds, and I believe cat food too sometimes. I’ve been using them to make handled grocery bags and wallets. I’m in San Rafael. —Juliana
A high-five to you both for innovative freecycling!
