HOW TO REPURPOSE OUR SHOEBOX, TISSUE PAPER AND DUST BAG

 

MARKET TOTE:

Turn your dust bag into a market tote for your trips to the farmer's markets. We've custom made our dust bag for you to repurpose as a durable, lightweight tote for your sustainable shopping.

STORAGE BOX:

Your understated and elegant box is ready for storage for not just your shoes. We've custom made our shoebox to with a drawer to easily reuse for accessories storage, journals and your most prized possessions.

COMPOST:

Your tissue paper just got extra special for our favorite hobby, gardening. Turn the paper into compost by cutting the paper into strips and putting a layer around your plants. This will help prevent the growth of the weed and keep the soil moist. Later the paper will decompose and help feed nutrients to the soil.

KEEP A CLEAN HOME:

Use your tissue paper while painting, staining your furniture or using them as home upholstery during all of our arts and crafts.

 

 

HOW TO RECYCLE OUR SHOEBOX AND TISSUE PAPER

 

STEP 1
We suggest that you contact your local waste disposal company first. Ask about the available recycling services and the existence of some recycling centers in your area.

 

STEP 2
Find out what can be recycled or not. Different areas have different rules on the materials they can accept, but here is a list of things they generally accept or reject: Things you can recycle: newspapers, magazines, maps, packaging, envelopes, cardboard. Things you can't recycle: wax paper, laminated paper, pet food pouches, greased food paper.

 

STEP 3
Sort your waste for recycling and put it on the roadside. If the waste disposal company offers a recycling service, dispose of your recyclable waste (after sorting it) in the appropriate bins.

 

IF STEP 1, 2 AND 3 DO NOT WORK FOR YOU
If the local waste collection company does not provide for recycling, or if you have too many things to put them in the bin, pack your shoe box and tissue paper to be recycled and take them to the recycling center in your area.
