Re: Should I Keep or Is It Time To Go

Just toss it in the garbage. Simple solution.

Do you want my used shower curtain? I do not want yours. LOL


 

 

why waste it by throwing it out?

if you dont want to donate to someone in need, then think about animal charities......ours take old sheets, towels, pillowcases, blankets, shower curtains, and more.

@BunSnoop no advice but I can relate to a muched loved shower curtain!

 

When I was first out on my own I went with a friend to visit her mom's home. Her mom had custom window treatments on every single window as well as custom made shower curtains. They were stunning!

 

I wanted to dupe the look with store bought and I had them forever! Washed, faded and thin, I finally parted with them!

I would purchase a new shower curtain to give someone in need, not my used one. If mine were still good enough to use I would not have bought a new one.

Purchased a lovely new white shower curtain from Kohl's.  Now - what to do with the old one?

 

The old one is also fabric and I use it with a plastic liner.  It's 8 years old and the embroidered colors (purple and green) on the cream colored curtain are not as vibrant as when new - faded with washings.  But - the curtain still is pretty and in great shape. I do have a few hand towels for decoration use only that match the curtain and they're in excellent shape.

 

What would you do with the old one?  Do I keep and "save" it for 5 years so when I get tired of the new curtain I can use it again  OR do I go to the QVC thread of "What Have You Purged Today" and list the shower curtain as something I purged today??


@BunSnoop 

Toss it.  It's old and faded.  Go to the purge thread and give it up.

I wouldn't keep anything that is faded or worn.

In our cool climate, I keep lightweight things like that to cover plants in case of an early autumn frost.
