Did you know that the average American throws away 82 pounds of textiles a year! Let’s reduce that amount by transforming about 12 of your old t-shirts into rugs using a 33-inch hula hoop! On Thursday, November 16th at 6 PM at the Mississippi River Eco Tourism Center you will be able to weave a simple rug for you to use at home or give as a gift. There will also be instructions to make baskets, chair pads and coasters. There is no fee unless you need to purchase a hula hoop. Please register at
