What to do with your old products

While I hope you keep your Lisa Burford products forever, I know this may not be realistic. Instead of tossing those unwanted items, you have multiple ways to remove them from your life without tossing them into the garbage. Typically no matter the condition, you can turn it into something good for you, maybe something good for someone else, but definitely good for the planet.

Paper Prints

If it's still in good condition:
- gift it to someone else
- donate it to a charity thrift store
- swap group

If it's in poor condition:
- recycle it

Every day, U.S. papermakers recycle enough paper to fill a 15-mile-long train of boxcars.

T-shirts

If it's still in good condition:
- gift it to someone else
- donate it to a charity thrift store
- swap group
- Send it to Marine Layer's Respun program and get $5 from them!
- upcycle and frame the design
- If you have a few articles of clothing piling up, consider using GreenDrop.

If it's in poor condition (holes, stained):
- use it as a rag (or tear it up to make many rags)
- use it as a shirt to paint in
- wear it while gardening and doing yard work
- wear it while cleaning your home
- Send it to Marine Layer's Respun program and get $5 from them (yes they take tees in any condition!)!
