Did you know?

Buying and selling previously-owned clothing at Posh Kids is eco-friendly because it prevents needless waste.
- On average, 80% of textiles thrown away still have 75% of their wearability left.
There is an average of 7 kilograms of textile waste (clothes, bedding, curtains, etc.) per person in landfills throughout Canada.
- The textile industry is the second most polluting next to petrochemistry.

Protect the environment and your children from harsh chemicals by choosing clothing made of organic cotton offered by Apples n' Oranges.

- It takes one-quarter of a pound of chemicals to produce one conventional cotton T-shirt, and one-quarter of a pound of chemicals to produce 2 pairs of conventional men's boxer shorts.
- Conventional cotton: is the second most pesticide-laden crop in the world - after coffee and before tobacco.

Buying previously-owned toys is eco-friendly because it avoids the usual over-packaging
- An estimated 800,000 tonnes of toy packaging were dumped into our landfills during the Christmas 2007 season alone (Source: Greensword)

Can you tell I dressed the mannequin in one of my favourite outfits? :)


I'm actually really impressed that K's outfit looks in almost as good shape as the stuff on the mannequin considering how often he's worn his!
