Did you know out of all of the clothing that's actually donated and not purely wasted, only close to 20 percent of Americans' clothing that goes to consignment shops and thrift stores are sold to consumers?! The rest are resold to be exported, recycled and converted for industrial use, recycled into fiber or dumped. The majority of clothing, which are exported to developing countries (side note: Developing countries don’t want our clothes!!), are separated, labelled and bound into bales.
🖤Thank you to everyone who came by the @ecoeclectic clothing swap on Sunday!🤩 it was so fun talking to you all, meeting new faces, gettin juicy w @purelifekam 🍎🍍🍐 and building bouquets with @isolabellafarm 💐🌾🌸- these swaps are a fun and sustainable way to refresh your closet .. 👙👚👗
