Every Saturday that it has been nice out in the past month, I've taken a brief moment to think about all of my summer clothes, which are in various drawers and suitcases under my bed. My bed is on risers to fit everything, because I'm basically a college student and live in a 500 sq ft apartment with no closets. I also frequently drive my laundry to my friends' homes. I'm almost 27, folks- adulthood at its' finest. Anyway, I often think about the treasures under the layers of mattress, sheets, featherbed, etc., and then I usually find something anything else to do.
Today, I stumbled across the Fashion Project and was immediately excited at the prospect of doing some under-bed spelunking. This video offers the basic premise:
Anyone who knows me IRL will agree that my of three favorite things are volunteering/supporting charities, cleaning out my closet, and shopping (specifically, shopping at Nordies), so this might have been created precisely with me in mind. It's honestly the easiest thing in the world- fill out your address, they send you a pre-labeled package, and you fill it with 5, 10, 15, whatever- items. You even get to select your charity and there are a TON of options. I am a big proponent of bettering your community so I chose the Atlanta Community Food Bank, but there are hundreds of options for social, religious, humanitarian, animal, women's right's, civil rights, etc.
