In Del Ray, September’s First Thursday theme is “Home Sweet Home."  Make your home even sweeter with some late summer cleaning. Come see us on the Bean Creative lot:  2213 Mt. Vernon Avenue from 6-8 pm.

This Thursday we will be accepting donations of clean, used household goods.  We want your...

Old T-Shirts--Clean Worn Out t-shirts have a lot of potential. Fun colors and whites welcome.
Can Pop Tops--These silver tabs offer bling after they have done their thing. Why not save them for UpCycle? We want them for a young artist who is making a hip hop pop top prom dress.
Used Toothbrushes--Getcha-self a new one and give the old toothbrush to UpCycle.  Your teeth and loved ones will thank you and so will we.
Bottle Caps--Metal and Plastic
Take-Out Containers--You wouldn’t want to be known as a one night stand. Take these containers out for more than dinner and don’t ditch them in the trash. UpCycle will mend their broken hearts and love them.

We'll also accept:
Envelopes
Used plastic gift cards
Unopened seed packets
Puzzles with missing pieces
Old board games with missing
parts
Dominoes or decks of cards
Marbles
Sewing notions - fabric, snaps,
Buttons, ribbon
Canning jars with lids
Sequins, beads
Old keys
Old silverware
Broken umbrellas
Corks

We hope you'll join us to explore the possibilities of working with reused materials on the grassy lot next to Bean Creative, 2213 Mt. Vernon Avenue.  We'll be making bottle cap necklace charms and weaving a large sculpture.  Come join the fun... and our mailing list!
