I recycle everything! Certain things go to certain places. I take clothes, household items and furniture to the resale shop where they are available to others at reasonable prices. Alternately, I sometimes donate to the USAgain boxes, Catholic Charities, and I recycle plastics at a place that gives jobs to disabled folks for sorting. I also turned an old toilet bowl brush container into a very nice flower vase, thus visually benefitting any visitors to my home. Naturally, I blogged about that :0)
