Can you guess what these little adorable dresses are made from? These sweeties arrived in my shop last week, handcrafted by Heidi, a local artisan. She adds the cute crochet details but the main part of the dress is made from....
recycled pillow slips
Yes, so simple but really effective. Knowing these super cute dresses have been up cycled from pillow slips makes them even more special. This is what I love about running my own Recycled Gallery. I sell products made locally in my region that have a story - history and intrigue. The provenance of the materials and innovation of the maker add an extra dimension to the shopping experience.
As an avid op-shopper pillow slips can be easily sourced, although it is not often you find a matching set. I think this is a super clever use for a single lonely pillowslip. Imagine the adventures this piece of fabric can continue to have.
Until next time,
