Swap. Don't Shop!
You keep hearing about recycling, right? But it doesn't end with bottles, cans, and paper. Clothing takes a huge amount of natural resources (资源) to make, and buying loads of new clothing (or throwing out old clothing) is not healthy for the environment. So what to do with all those perfectly-good-but-you 're-maybe-a-little-sick-of-them clothes piled on your bedroom floor? . It's the best way to get rid of your used clothes, score clothes from your friends, and have a party all at the same time.
A successful swap depends on the selection of clothes, the organization of the event, and, obviously, how much fun is had. It's really easy to do! Here are a few pointers. ·Invite 5-10 people so you have a nice selection. ,and there may not be enough things to choose from; more than that, and it becomes uncontrollable.
. They should also prepare plenty of reusable bags to carry their "new" clothes home.
Put different types of clothing on different surfaces in the room. . Place a few mirrors around your room so people can see how things look when they try them on. One of the ground rules of the swap should be that everyone must try on the clothes before they take them-things always look different when you put them on.
·Set a starting time. Maybe you say "go," or turn on a certain song, or whatever. . And don't forget to put out some cookies and fruits. Remember, it's a party!
