10 Things That Are Considered Old-Fashioned (and Why I Do Them Anyway)

Beth says she has nothing to add to this blog post.

I’m not sure what that says about me. Not sure what that means about Beth. All I know for sure is that I have lots of habits, fashion choices, life choices that may at first blush seem old-fashioned.

I don’t know if I’d really call them old-fashioned. I’d call them tried and true, dependable, classic... and they make me happy.

So, let’s go ahead and roll the list. I’ll let you be the final judge.

1. I use a clothesline – I tend to dry clothes in the sunshine instead of using a clothes dryer.

2. I have an ironing day

3. I hesitate to purchase gifts on Amazon because I love to personally wrap gifts.

4. I send cards, I’m always on the lookout for beautiful stationary, cards, stickers, etc.

5. Even though my ears have been pierced for years, I love to wear vintage clip on earrings

6. I rarely use a microwave. I like to use the stove

7. I keep my notes for articles, blog posts, business ideas, etc. in an unlined, bound journal. I rarely use my computer for ideas.

8. I regularly purchase books.

9. I regularly use the library

10. I prefer to shop in real stores (but will shop online)

11. BONUS: I still use my cookbook collection to find new recipes

12. BONUS: Dare I mention “landlines,” I still have one. Occasionally it comes in handy.

So, there you have it. Do you have a list?

Or are you more like Beth?
