Ready to go... BUT NOTHING TO WEAR?
- Weed
out those un-wearables from your closet....Turn them into
ready-to-wear clothing that's functional, well fitted, and
makes you look & feel great!* (*You can do
this without buying a whole new wardrobe)
- My
specialty is the recycling of an existing wardrobe into
a more functional one by alteration, repair, redesign and
lots of creativity.
- Let's
recycle some of those items into wearable clothing for you,
now! Remember, recycling is as good for your closet (and
your budget) as it is for the environment!
