Earth Day Follow-up

Recently Heffy's Collections (both our eBay and website) had a promotion for Earth Day. We offered a special deal to all of our myspace friends. During this time, several people asked why we chose Earth Day. I have talked about it here, before and during the promotion, but it bears repeating. Wearing vintage clothing helps our planet and really captures the essence of Earth Day. The resources have already been used to make the clothing, often some time ago. Some of the clothing we put up for sale may have had several owners. It makes good sense to recycle it again.

Americans throw out about 65 pounds of clothing a year. We have become accustomed to buying trendy, fashionable clothes and just tossing them when they're no longer in style. Some is donated to various agencies such as Salvation Army and Goodwill. It is estimated about 12-15% of discarded clothing is recycled for use. If you make a conscious decision to add gently worn or vintage clothing to your wardrobe, this percentage could increase. If we all did it, think how much we could save! The savings include natural resources, petroleum, and pesticides.

Heffy's Collections is committed to selling quality secondhand and vintage clothing at a reasonable price. Check out these items we have up now:
