Check out the Mission's Pinterest boards!

Like most people we are huge fans of Pinterest at the Mission and The Red Door! As you can tell from many of our blog post we love to reuse, repurpose and recycle anything we can. From recycling metals to sending clothing that cannot be used by the Mission or The Red Door to third world countries, we strongly believe anything and everything can serve a purpose.

 With the new year upon us we thought why not explore some of the different ways to take old items and turn them into new repurposed items! I have looked through both Pinterest as well as our stores and found some great ideas for redesigning items that can be found throughout our stores! I hope you like these ideas as much as I do! Please feel free to share you different projects in the comment section, we would love to see pictures of what you have made! Happy New Year Everyone!
