Recycle, Reduce, Reuse, RECREATE! Earth Day Blog Event

[Former_Member]

Beginning April 1st I will be running a month long blog, or what I like to call a webbernet event in honor of Earth Day called Recycle, Reduce, Reuse, RECREATE!

In November, TrashN2Tees hosted a webbernet event in honor of America Recycles Day- I shared information on the who/what/where of recycling, featured products made from recycled materials, and hosted several giveaways. This one day even boasted over 4,500 hits and was hosted on my website www.trashn2tees.com and using facebook. There were a total of 10 sponsors including other etsians, work at home moms, and bloggers.

For this upcoming webbernet event which is now being co-sponsored with Terra Made, we will be hosting from the new TrashN2Tees blog (http://trashn2tees.blogspot.com) - for 30 consecutive days we will post DIY projects to repurpose items for the family and home. I have several bloggers and handmade artisan already involved but I would love to have you participate by submitting a tutorial, guest blog post, cross promoting, or sponsoring a giveaway or even creating a treasury!

Feel free to reply here, convo, or email me (contact@trashn2tees.com)
I look forward to hearing from you, and appreciate you taking the time to consider joining in the efforts to encourage and inspire others to consume less and recycle more! Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions- Jenelle

I make all my Jewelry from "Seaglass", which is essentially broken glass that has been in the ocean for a while. I consider this environmentally friendly and recycling. Anyway, here are a few of my items

I've never done a tutorial and don't know how I would share the pattern but if someone wants to talk me through it I could try to help

[Former_Member]

GrowingUpWild, those are cute!! Imagine your telling a friend how to make the pants, step by step. Write it down. You can always add pictures of the process or if your artsy you could illustrate them! If you need any help feel free to convo me or email contact@trashn2tees.com

did everyone get their convos? still room for treasuries, blog swaps, tutes, posts, and giveaways! join the fun :)
