1. Recycle Baby Socks Into Bunnies, Chicks and Eggs
If you’ve got a baby, then odds are you’ve got a mountain of baby socks. There’s very little you can do with this mountain, but we’ve got one super-clever and cute idea for you. Put your crafty skills to good use and make some adorable bunnies, chicks and eggs out of those tiny socks. If you’re new to DIY crafts, no worries this project is almost as easy as pie.
2. Join thredUP and Trade Clothing
thredUP is a really useful clothing exchange program designed especially for social networking savvy parents. thredUp helps you switch out used clothing for nearly new, gently used pieces. Best of all, this clothing exchange is practically free.
3. Make Your Own ‘Owly’ Plush Toy
This project is so easy a child could do it. No joke – in fact, a child is exactly who created this adorable DIY owl project and it’s a cute way to reuse any fabric you have laying about, including used baby clothing into a sweet plush toy for the very kids who just outgrew the clothing.

We dig being part of a community that can think so far outside (or in our case, INSIDE) the box! Thanks! ~ Sara at thredUP.
We are filling up a refrigerator box full of clothing to send to Paraguay. We are saving children’s shoes and clothing. The children in Paraguay rarely can afford shoes. If only I could get the clothing that the people who read this need to discard for our collections to send to the poor people in Paraguay.
