Every once in a while, there comes a time when we step back and start to question our life choices (do we really need all the things from the insane Amazon sale?). For the Desai sisters, it was mindless consumerism they were surrounded by that pushed them towards thinking that 'there’s got to be a more eco-friendly way'. And with that, they started recycling stuff at their own house, and slowly, friends and family hit them up with things they wanted to be upcycled. Slowly, the sisters had to expand to accommodate requests from complete strangers, and that’s when this venture-with-a heart started taking shape.
It’s a fairly simple process; Rummage through your cupboard to find sturdy clothes, and they will collect them from your doorstep. The talented army of women the sisters have engaged in Pune, and Gurgaon then work on your discarded clothes to turn them into quilts, cushion covers, bed covers, baby blankets, buntings and such. If you like, you can actively decide what becomes of the heap of tees you gave, or blissfully leave the ideation of the end product to them.
They will arrange for pickup if you're in one of the two places mentioned. If not, you will need to send them an email (or send them a message through LBB using the "Message" feature), and work out the logistics, but it's fully worth it!
