A few weeks ago, I went for coffee with a co-worker that I didn't really know too well. I made a comment at one point that I was a bit of a hippie. He asked me what I meant by that, so I told him that my dream was to make as little wasteful impact on the world as possible. I want to grow my own food, make my own clothes, and live in a house that I'll (hopefully, one day) build out of re-purposed shipping containers.
Why am I telling you this?
Because I am making baby steps towards this goal. The shirt I am wearing today was handmade... by me! It actually used to be a dress. I don't have a picture of it to share, but I made it, wore it once, and then it hung in my closet for 4 years totally untouched, so I figured I'd transform it into something new! Voila! Not only did I hand-make part of my outfit... I also re-purposed it!
Pretty cool, huh?
What's sustainable about this outfit?
: the top is handmade and re-purposed
: the bracelets are handmade and fair trade
: the rings are handmade
: the necklace is handmade
Top handmade by me
Love.
