is a weighted eye blanket.  It's such a nice, relaxing, easy hand sewing
project that is a perfect gift to self and great to give to others. It is a
weighted eye blanket that helps accelerate the chillaxing vibes. Plus, And
if you mix in a few dried flower petals, you’ll have aromatherapy too. I
hope you’ll give it a try and love it as much as we do!*

*For all who asked for a couple more days ~ BUY 3 GET 1 FREE is extended
for LIBRARY WEEK!  Remember, you can book right into 2024!  Some librarians
have booked for an entire year ~ easy, super popular programming already in

but it is included in this special offer. *
*The Reusable Snack Bag Hand Sewing Workshop!*
*great for summer snacks, back-to-school, and gifts!  I am so excited about
how this project makes an easy way to live greener.*

  *Keep scrolling for more on eco-friendly living!*
*EARTH DAY ACTION!*




*Every April, I try to look at my business and see what I can do to make my
eco-footprint lighter. This year, I found something especially exciting and
it may be of interest to your library too!   When I make up my kits, I try
my best to cut fabric with zero waste. But I always end up with a bin of
small thready leftovers. I found two services that accept hard-to-recycle
trash.  These two companies recycle fabric scraps. They provide a box or a
bag that I can fill up and then ship back or drop off!   I think I can
afford the additional cost – I’ll monitor over the next few months. The
first company is called TerraCycle
<http://tracking.rainpos.com/tracking/click?d=LrsvnhjVw4M_4viXo9kfv7Ob5ftmfumtxRl-dFiROjCg18hCw9YI09kFfjpILdWFlfyuBiqclJf0bP90fx3BxwKu8x7yZ_Rf1kzEWQRnhYICXmA8oDW_zHPHhKEJHOdFQKEju_IFQtULLmxbaAw0ajUdeaa7bY0XY4zsCZQmuzzFus7qC09YUdYkge5FGyjKh8nJabqmCN6NyQDFoAeq3IJS6x4W2wstTIewhk7r37EhEOC70DYC5rH6ir1jYqQrNSDx3YA_JcvrEjx9Y_mo-O2gw7BoaSdQsa1AowGCvzrG0>
– they recycle all kinds of things in addition to textiles including spent
art supplies; used disposable gloves; and more. They provide a box and a
prepaid shipping label so they can receive recyclables from across the
nation. The second is here in the NY/NJ area – its called FABSCRAP
<http://tracking.rainpos.com/tracking/click?d=fi_5H7Egnnp9CvLpRjOAIvCS01S3q8TYiDDQMoIe6VQsne51kAbh1kHjFqY4HtPU5t6wsT8NZwQ3V3TV9DIpwzpUebx0ykiqjI_RGRmuZ3V3-01K3etAcNcmD_4sRhB1oQ2>.
They provide a bag that I fill up and drop at their plant at (the very
cool) Brooklyn Navy Yard. I'm planning to visit next week and will include
pics if I can. There are volunteer opportunities to help sort the materials
as well. Click on the links to learn more (no affiliate interest on my part
= just FYI).*

*But Mainly – I’m excited that there is a way to make my business more
sustainable for reals! *
