"Reuse. Repair, repaint, reinterpret, revive, redeploy, or simply relish the things you have. The idea that we can dispose of things easily weakens our links with the stuff we own...Revamp, reupholster and rearrange. If you do offload, find a way to recycle or redistribute. Someone will love what you have grown tired of."
