Glad to see Hope and the gang are at it again only bigger and better. It’s just so grassroots and sounds like a lot of fun. Swap parties are also an inexpensive and green way to refresh your wardrobe, clean out your closet and give to those in need.
What?
Swap - Don’t Shop clothing swap party: A fun and frugal way to revamp your wardrobe
Gather up your unfortunate holiday gifts, regrettable impulse sale purchases and other unwanted clothing, and come out to our first co-ed clothing swap, where you’ll leave with bags of wonderful new wardrobe favourites!
All men’s and women’s clothing, shoes, and other accessories (with the exception of socks & undies) that are clean and in fairly good condition are welcome.
As well as fabulous clothing and yummy snacks, sewers will be on hand to do basic alterations and demos on reinventing your wardrobe.
At the end of the day, all unclaimed clothing will be donated to a local charity.
Where?

11 a.m.-2 p.m.
11 a.m.: Drop off your clothes, socialize, and enjoy the yummy snacks and drinks.
Noon: The swapping frenzy begins!
At the end of the day, all unclaimed clothing will be donated to charity.

Hey Kare,
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and sharing your swap tips. I'm trying to get someone to set up a swap for podcasting gear at PodCamp Toronto next weekend.
Let us know how your swap goes. I'd love to join you but it's a bit far.
Cheers,
Eden
