Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at mindful8mending@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

How can your services help me create a more sustainable closet?

At THE CONSCIOUS CLOSET, we offer a range of services focused on sustainable fashion, including:

- Mending and Repairing: Include fixing holes, reattaching buttons, reinforcing seams, repairing side slits and readjust dress straps.

- Refitting and Alterations: Adjusting garments to fit better without compromising on comfort.

- Upcycling: Transforming an old garment into something fresh and new. For example, turning a dress into a chic two piece skirt and top set or scarf, giving the fabric a new purpose.

- Charity Donations: We help you identify women’s shelters and children-centered charities to donate unused or gently worn clothing.

- Reselling Assistance: We guide you through setting up reselling accounts on platforms that suit your items best, offering tips on creating listings and pricing. We also offer assistance with photographing items on a mannequin and uploading your listings.

- Eco-conscious Styling: We curate looks using sustainable brands and provide a curated list of eco-friendly brands and designers that align with your style and budget.

What is the difference between mending, repairing, and upcycling?

- Mending involves simple fixes, such as sewing up small holes or adding patches.

- Repairing focuses on making a garment functional again, such as replacing buttons or fixing torn seams.

- Upcycling is a creative process that transforms an old piece into something new and unique. For example, we could take an outdated pair of pants and turn it into a pair of shorts or a handbag, or turn a long dress into a summer blouse.

If you want to revive and personalize your pieces, dyeing techniques like dip dye, shibori and block printing can dramatically alter the appearance of your garments.

How do I know if a garment is worth mending or upcycling?

During our consultation, we will examine each article of clothing to decide if it can be repaired, mended, or repurposed. We will consider factors like the quality of the fabric, its overall condition, and any sentimental value it may hold. For instance, we might be able to make minor fixes to a high-quality silk dress, while we could completely transform an old-fashioned blouse into something stylish through upcycling.

How affordable are your services?

We believe in making sustainable fashion accessible to everyone. Our services are budget-friendly and tailored to your specific needs. Whether it’s a quick lesson to learn how to mend, an upcycling project, or a full wardrobe revamp, we work with all types of budgets. Upcycling projects' costs vary based on complexity but are always more cost-effective, creative and ecologically sound compared to purchasing new items.

Can you help me donate my clothes?

Yes, we can! We work with women’s shelters and children’s charities to ensure your gently used clothing goes to those in need. We’ll even help you organize your closet and identify which items are best suited for donation. Additionally, we handle the logistics, so you don’t have to worry about drop-offs.

How do I start reselling my clothes online?

We assist you in setting up accounts on popular reselling platforms like The RealReal, Vestiaire Collective, Thread-up, Poshmark, Depop, eBay. We’ll guide you through everything from creating a compelling profile, photographing your clothes to highlighting their best features, writing detailed descriptions, and setting competitive prices. Other options could include contacting independent vintage market sellers on your behalf to get a quote for your more upscale pieces.
