A message from our founder, UK Recycling Week

It's Recycling Week again in the UK and we're re-excited to be a part of it. Here at FixIts, we love recycling - as a great last resort. But before we recycle something, we reckon there are loads of ways we can extend its life. So here's to reusing, repurposing, refixing, reimagining. Recycle, for sure, but before you do so, have a think how you can extend something's lifetime a little longer? (Spoiler alert: it's fun!)

Reusing things is a joy

Reusing things is a really practical, creative way to save time and money, and do your bit to save waste. We've pulled together some ideas below that celebrate the art of reusing. Try reusing one thing this week?

Fixing up the garden

We were tidying up some of the things in our garden this week, and realised FixIts is so good for all the bits and bobs we needed. Take the eyelets below. If we didn't have FixIts, we'd have to wash our hands, jump in the car, drive to the shop (get stuck in a jam), choose from hundreds of products, wait in the queue... you get the idea. With FixIts it's quick and easy, and way more fun! Happy green fingers.

Fresh Starts with FixIts

It's a time of new beginnings and fresh starts. Time to get ready. We love it. It almost feels like a Mini New Year. It's exciting. We've got some helpful hacks for all you College Goers and Back To Schoolers. Save yourself a bit of time and money by fixing your old stuff, rather than buying new. Enjoy all the moments.

Summer holidays coming to an end too soon? Don't worry... we've got good news! You can extend the fun and make the holiday vibes last longer. Plan an extra picnic.
