Piles and Piles of CLOTHES!

Ah clothes! Piles and piles of clothes! I suspect you have a closet full waiting for a new home.  I have an even stronger suspicion that you would LOVE some "new" clothes, right?

Well how about hosting a clothes exchange?? Also known as "bare naked lady party," though you don't really need to strip down to your skivvies. I've done it myself a few times (not the striping down) and had a blast! Get all your friends together and make mountains of clothes on the floor. Pick and choose and help support your friends all with a glass of wine in hand.

All you need is a place to host, a day or night of the week, good friends and LOTS of clothes! I also enjoy sorting through accessories. Try exchanging kids clothes and toys too. Give it a go and get some "new" clothes for FREE and feel way good about recycling!
