Time for part two of my closet clear out, and this time I have to deal with decluttering my thrifted blouse collection and sorting through the large volume of retro dresses I have sewn over the last several years. It is certainly harder for me to let go of things I have made myself, and since everything still sparks some joy, the question becomes which things spark the /most/ joy, eek!
Hopefully by the time I get to listing everything on Etsy (think summer-ish, it's going to be a while!!) and doing a final sort I will be able to let a few more items go, but by then we all know I will have made new things as well of course!

Also, not sponsored by either of these shoe sources, just to confirm.
I won't be selling the Ankara wax print cotton dress seen in the video, as I don't want to profit off it in any way, and really I'd like to send it directly to a more appropriate owner, so I'm going to try and figure that one out. I have learned and grown over the last 10 years of wearing and collecting vintage and sewing retro garments, and I always hope to continue learning about how I can do better as member of the vintage community.

But wait there's more! A PO BOX finally wahoo!
First, a disclaimer: So many of you have kindly offered to send me things, including vintage items you may have inherited, and I am so honored you would think of me and of course I do adore vintage treasures, however, unfortunately I only have so much storage space currently! So there is a chance that if something just wont work for me, or doesn't fit me etc, that I may not be able to keep all of your lovely things. Please only send things if you are okay with the possibility that I may donate items I just cannot keep. If you would prefer I put things that I can't keep into the TCH Etsy shop to help raise funds for me and the channel, please specify this in a note or letter in your parcel. Thank you so much!
