Furnishing a Nursery or Childs Room: Reuse is the Ultimate Eco Plan
If you are joyfully anticipating the birth, adoption or fostering of a child, it is likely you are also considering furnishing a nursery or bedroom.
Often times being environmentally friendly is also the most cost effective option. Reuse is the ultimate in environmental stewardship. Take advantage of websites such as Freecycle, Craigslist and eBay to trade or purchase gently used items. Visit local resale shops and make friends of the sales people, ask them to call you when that needed item comes in. Frequent neighborhood garage and rummage sales. Get on an email list for local Moms Clubs and watch for their annual sales.
