Rescue & Relove is Shelter and Shelter Scotland’s celebration of circular fashion this September. From repair, to customisation, upcycling, to altering and restyling, there are many creative ways to Rescue & Relove a preloved piece and make it uniquely yours.
We’ve created a series of step-by-step video guides showing how to carry out five easy clothing fixes in as little as two minutes. Scroll down to watch the videos below to learn how or
download your pdf guide here.
And join our Instagram communities at @sheltershops and @sheltershopsscotland for upcycling and restyling inspiration. Please share your finished project by tagging us and we could feature your post!
