🪡Mending March & Book Club Reveal
+ Our Circular Fashion Playground is Back for Earth Month!
Welcome to Reclypt’s bi-weekly newsletter, the place where you learn how we create change in the circular economy (even if you don’t know what that is). Want to make a difference, this is the only newsletter you need.
Please share this with someone who’s interested in and/or wants to learn more about the circular economy.Â
🪡What IS mending?
Simply: the process of repairing or stitching together torn or damaged fabric using needle and thread. But how, why, what, when, and where you do the mending is unlimited AND, we think, the best part!
AT RECLYPT MENDING IS MORE THAN REPAIR. It’s more than a skill with a specific outcome. To us, mending is an act of rebellion, showing love, fixing, climate action, skill development, creating personal style, loud budgeting, meditation, and most importantly - community!
Start or grow your mending journey with us this month
