Where to Shop

  So this week I am doing a lot of shopping for my new project in Fibers Studio. I have gone threw my own closet looking for those pieces of clothing I have not worn in years but don’t have the heart to throw away. So what you are looking for when your recycling new clothing to print on or sew is natural material like cotton, wool, silk, hemp, and cashmere. If possible you want to stay away from synthetic material they are harder to print on. So some place that Have really good re-sale clothing is the Salvation Army, Detroit threads, and Regeneration. There are many other places but these seem to have a good selection at a decent price. Salvation Army is a good place if your looking to create a big piece of clothing you can take sheets which they sell for around 3 dollars and have yards of material. At Detroit Threads in Hamtramck they have a lot of vintage styles. Regeneration in Ferndale has options of things from 60’s to present day.  These are all great place and if anyone knows of a great resale shop please comment. It’s a great way to save money and have a unique recycled closet.
