The Great American Apparel Diet

no buying for one year

Elizabeth, Baltimore City

Elizabeth, 32 Baltimore City. Elizabeth has been doing her own version of the diet for over a year now and has been blogging about it at: http://icouldsewdothat.com/ . Elizabeth is a Client Services Manager by day and runs an etsy shop, www.serendipit.etsy.com selling handmade recycled clothing and accessories in her free time. Most of the products she sells are recycled from t-shirts or denim. “I buy ‘new’ clothes from Goodwill to satisfy my shopping fix and hold clothing swaps in Baltimore City so that I don't get bored with my clothing selection,” she reports. Like a swiss army knife, Elizabeth is a snowboarder, competitive downhill mountain biker, yoga practicioner, wife + mother, dog lover, cook, treehugging creator of things trying to save the world and herself at the same time. Elizabeth enjoys refashioning Tshirts and other recycled materials into fun and practical clothing and accessories.
