Spring Fling Wing Ding Promotes Repurpose, Upcycle, Recycle
Posted by Laura Nelson on March 14, 2010
It’s Our Earth in downtown Wheaton is holding a Spring Fling Wing Ding on Saturday, March 20, 11am to 4pm. Children (grade school age and above) will do paper-weaving crafts using food packaging, candy wrappers and chip bags. Kids will also do record-painting, using acrylics on old records to fashion decorative art. Craft sessions are free, no reservations necessary.
Jewelry Artist Lisa Streker will present her jewelry collection. Streker takes vintage jewelry from the 1800s to the 1960s and refashions it into unique, one of a kind, new designs featuring crystals, stones, beads and more.
Raffle prizes will be given out hourly, and there will be give-aways galore.
When clearing out clutter around your home, don’t just toss stuff in the garbage to get rid of it. Donate it to an enterprise that will recycle it and minimize unwanted items going into landfills.
It’s Our Earth accepts many donations of unwanted items that can be repurposed into new ones–or can direct you to another business accepting donations.
It’s Our Earth is at 127 N. Main St., Wheaton. (630) 668-3800. www.ItsOurEarth.com
