A word from your Editor

Hi Refashioners and Refashion Co-op readers.  It is Erica here, one of Refashion Co-op's Daily Editors.  This is just a quick note to mention to all of our contributors, that we've noticed quite a few blog posts lately that have been great upcycle projects, but are not really focused on fashion garments. You are all very talented, and we love to see your projects, but we'd like to keep Refashion Co-op dedicated to fashion related transformations.

Thank you so much for reading this, please do contact us if you have any questions related to a blog post you intend to post but are unsure.

Alright, for a new reader, what is the difference between an upcycle and a refashion?

At this point, Andy's Mom, the distinction we're trying to draw is between the reuse of materials for any range of things (toys, pillows, duvet covers, clothes, etc.)--which we'll use the term upcycle--and more fashion focused posts (clothes and accessories, *wearable* up cycles)--which we are referring to with the term refashions. Hope that helps! -Seeks, EOD
