I will check both.<br /> Also Madewell gives you a coupon when you give a denim item and they use it for insulation material.<br /> If I know that what I don’t wear any longer will be put to good use and not in a landfill, I will be happy to donate it to the right place. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-made-me-do-it--#post-1962408 Sun, 07 Oct 2018 17:16:35 +0000 cindysmith 1962408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joyce, goodwill recycles textiles. Like, things they can't sell in their thrift stores get bought up by textile recyclers.<br /> H&amp;M collects old clothes and textiles &amp; sends what's good to thrift shops, the rest gets bought by recyclers. The bonus with h&amp;m is that if you take a bag of old clothes to them, they give you a discount coupon for your next purchase.</p> <p>There are probably other programs that I don't know about </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-made-me-do-it--#post-1962398 Sun, 07 Oct 2018 16:52:56 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1962398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The shoes--wow!And good that you got your wardrobe all polished and bright to fit in with your bright &amp; shiny new house. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-made-me-do-it--#post-1962396 Sun, 07 Oct 2018 16:49:35 +0000 Joyce B 1962396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done!

You Did It. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie-made-me-do-it--#post-1962263 Sun, 07 Oct 2018 02:35:22 +0000 cindysmith 1962263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did a closet edit on the 23rd of September and I thought it was pretty thorough. There were 3 bags of stuff taken to the local thrift shop (pic 1). Then Angie came up with her closet edit challenge.</p> <p>I interviewed at Old Navy this morning for a seasonal position (I'll know Monday whether or not I get a job there). When I got home, I felt like I was in the right frame of mind to tackle a closet edit.</p> <p>It. Was. Heinous.</p> <p>Two garbage bags full of clothes and scarves. A dust bag full of things for textile recycling. And countless grocery bags of shoes for donations.</p> <p>I can actually see what I own now. I have finally gotten rid of the last of the stuff I kept just for working at the fruit stand. I got rid of shoes that are too tight. I got rid of high heels that were beyond repair and high heels that I am pretty sure I'm not going to wear (not now not never). I got rid of stained shirts and stained pants and pilled knits and pants with decorations that were coming off.</p> <p>I feel lighter. My closet feels lighter and brighter. And it's all Angie's fault LOL </p>
