It's that time of year again back to school and I am both Happy and nervous! but enough about me and more about this article! I am going to give you 5 earth friendly school clothes hacks.

1. up cycling! take your old clothes and do fun crafts and D.I.Ys to make them fresh again!

2. Siblings. Yes, finally something siblings are useful for, ask your siblings if they have any old clothes that they don't want and if you don't have any siblings ask another family member or even a friend.

3. Thrift stores, if you want some new clothes and enjoy shopping then thrift stores are perfect! you are recycling clothes that are also great and they are for a great price!

4. ok so lets say you want brand new clothes but still want to help the earth. Try looking for earth friendly clothes that have been made out of recycled material or the brand is earth friendly it's a little more expensive but can still give great results.

5. I have covered everything on getting clothes, how about giving? Donating your clothes to charity to make room for your new clothes giving it to a thrift store and even a donation for people in need because without happy people on our planet you can't have a happy planet.

Tip: if you have to wear a uniform for school these can still work especially if you get to pick out some of the clothes. but if everyone is wearing the same thing and you want to stand out here is D.I.Y earth friendly accessories.
