Looking through my photographs I found these four that belong together:

unfurling on a fence in Astoria, Queens,

my new blue glass,

favorite pajama bottoms,

and the fireworks last July 4th.

I’ve signed up for 2 months of Wardrobe Refashioning. I’m kinda nervous and sorta excited, but couldn’t pass up the opportunity to make and adapt my own clothes in the company of others. Here’s my pledge:

The Pledge

I pledge that I shall abstain from the purchase of “new” manufactured items of clothing, for the period of 2 (and possibly more) months.

I pledge that I shall refashion, renovate, recycle preloved items for myself with my own hands in fabric, yarn or other medium for the term of my contract.

I pledge that I will share the love and post a photo of my refashioned, renovated, recycled, crafted or created item of clothing on the Wardrobe Refashion blog, so that others may share the joy that my thriftyness brings!

Let the fun begin…
