Earth Day Celebrations encourage us to go "Green" which is great.
We collectors have been doing that as long as we have collected Antiques and Collectibles. How you say?!! We recycle furniture saving trees and power, and we use old potter...y, silver, jewelry, cookie jars, wood doors, clothing,fireplace mantels etc etc etc. We also repurpose some items in a way not intended originally, but what works for us today. Some artists take old and create something wonderful by reusing discarded bits and pieces. We are ahead of the "Green Movement" and deserve to pat each other on the back. Come join us, your welcome, and know if you love collecting it can be a lifetime committment of being "Green".

Here are some additional ideas people have had. Makes for an eclectic mix in your home showing off some of your personality and love,
instead of having a TRENDY COOKIE CUTTER decorated home.
Plus the benefits of knowing you are doing your share in being green.
