They barely have food to eat, and the mother, who is pregnant, prepares for the new baby by sewing feedsack nighties for him. Use that gift card combined with sales to buy some new clothes to give to a needy family. She also loves to cook with organic, locally grown food, and details how to make organic food affordable.

Work With What You've Got

JANUARY 25, 2010

I had organized a clothing swap that worked entirely through the mail. So Nathan was working his shift, and I had friends over, watching a DVD, and we were trying to scrape together enough money for a frozen pizza. But what was really interesting was that I was working on a swap.

Old clothing parts. Before throwing away old clothing, I snip the buttons off and remove working zippers (unless I’m donating the item). I’ve also cut up old pieces of clothing to use as quilt pieces and used old men’s cotton tshirts for rags. If you want to get fancy, draw, paint or sew buttons on it for eyes.

Most of us don’t give too much thought to where our clothes come from, often only concerned with price and style. But let’s face it, no one is going to stop buying denim blue jeans anytime soon – at least until we all start wearing clothing like the characters in Star Wars. Look for organic cotton denim.
