You might recognize Wendy Tremayne from our Green Acre Series here on RyanIsHungry. Wendy founded Swap-O-Rama-Rama as a way to break out the consumer cycle of shopping for clothes. Utilizing the abundance that just a few people's closets can bare, adding a little creativity with fancy sewing machines and silkscreen artists for custom modifications, Swap-O-Rama-Rama makes recycling clothes fun and social. This particular swap was part of Maker Faire, an event to celebrate makers of all kinds from robot artists to crafters to computer hackers.
As Wendy says here: There is no creativity in consumerism...makers don't make good consumers. The less you know, the less you can make, the more you're going to buy.
Want to produce a Swap-O-Rama-Rama where you live? You can! Because it's Creative Commons licensed! Contact Wendy through the site and she'll get you started!
