This week, I had a lovely time perusing other ladies' cast-offs at the spring clothes swap hosted by Echo Theatre. I totally lucked out too! Apparently, someone my size was unloading lots of garments, so my wearable-to-refashionable ratio ended up a lot higher than it usually is.
First, let's tally up the good-to-go pile!
Six sweaters (one Gap)
Five t-shirts
One tank top
Two button-down shirts
One dress
One pair of Gap jeans
One Fossil bag
And in this corner, we have the refashionables:
Five skirts
Two dresses
One pair of slacks (which might be wearable as is, I haven't decided yet)
One blouse
All for just $20 and a box of donated clothes lacking refashion potential. Now to do some laundry and get to work!
And it appears they are all in great condition. Lucky you, and enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI know! I've gotten some clothes there before with holes or stains, with the thinking that if I don't take it and refashion around the damage, it'll probably end up in the garbage. But this time, I think I only saw one such garment and someone else had already claimed it with the same intentions - to alter it herself!
Deletewhat a great idea!
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's fantastic! I'm so glad I found out about it!
