Unique Shopping at Recycletown...
Who would have thought a trip to the dump would be an outing, but it was uniquely entertaining.
Adjacent to Sonoma County's recycling drop-off zone is the reuse area, also known as Recycletown, operated by Garbage Reincarnation, Inc., where household goods, building materials, toys, clothing and a myriad of other items can be donated and are then offered for sale to others. I was told that valuable items, thrown away, are saved for this shop.
We had no other reason to be here than to ogle. And our ogling was rewarded.This may have been my mom's! I love the vintageness of this mixer. Yes, treasures can be found.
I am absolutely certain this high chair is valuable. I found a similar one for sale, "Antique High Chair Baby Seat Wood Cane Bentwood Thonet Style Rustic Primitive Farmhouse Shabby Chic Photoshoot Prop Baby Shower American Price:$381.65". Hmmm. "One man's junk is another man's treasure!"
"The purpose - where I start - is the idea of use.
It is not recycling, it's reuse."
