Earth Week

For Earth Week this year I have decided that I am giving up paper towels. I can use old towels and shirts that I have cut up to be cleaning towels. Any extra towels I need I will probably try and purchase cheaply at the dollar store or possibly a thrift store. This is not only going to save the planet but will also save me money, so I get to kill two birds with one stone on this one!! Let me know if you have any other ideas!!
