Dear Network, 📢📢Yesterday I was announcing via ATELIERFH 's newsletter that I am closing a chapter. 3 years… It's not a sad moment; it's a decision I'm fully aligned with. I'll be honest; I had time to process this 😂. In fact, I made this decision before the summer holidays. Emotions ran high, I won't deny that. There are many reasons behind this, and I'm happy to share them privately with those interested. 📌What I want to emphasize is that until you've tried something, you can't truly know if it's the right fit for you. That didn't stop me from enjoying running AtelierFH these past few years. I learned so much, pushing myself out of my comfort zone. I've also had the privilege of meeting some incredible people and diving into worlds I'd never known before entrepreneurship, start-ups, sustainable development, the fashion industry, the media... It's been a crazy adventure! Not to mention the new skills I've developed, but I'll spare you the list. It will be for my future job interviews. 🤣All of this fueled me with energy, and I believe energy is a great indicator.⚡ 📌My 'why', as Simon Sinek puts it, which motivated the launch of the AtelierFH, is still there. How to help and inspire others to adopt new consumption habits, to understand the challenges of climate change and how we can all make a positive impact. I know what nourishes me, what gives me energy, and how I want to contribute post-AtelierFH. 🙏🏼 Thank you for your support: friends, customers, partners and people who have joined me in making AtelierFH's mission a reality. Thank you to those who contributed to the crowdfunding campaign 18 months ago. Special thanks to my cobbler partner in Zurich, Zaher who has been with me from the start. Thanks to all the sustainable fashion players I connected with and collaborated with. ⏭ WHAT'S NEXT? 📌And on a personal note? As I mentioned earlier, the energy and my "Why" will continue to guide me. AtelierFH was part of the journey. I'll keep you posted. 📌But before I can really focus on the next chapter, I need to end properly AtelierFH. For those in Zurich, come for a coffee to celebrate Secondhand Day♻. It's also an opportunity to mark the pre-closing of AtelierFH. It will be on September 23rd from 10 AM in Zurich.

We are back 😀 over 100 new thrifting items LOADED 🩷 keep an eye out www.DashingFashion.co.za There are several reasons why supporting thrifting is beneficial: 1. Environmental Impact: Thrifting helps reduce waste and pollution. By purchasing second-hand items, we prevent them from ending up in landfills. The fashion industry, in particular, is known for its significant environmental footprint, and thrifting reduces the demand for new clothing production. 2. Cost-Effective: Thrift stores offer a wide range of affordable items, including clothing, furniture, and household goods. Supporting thrifting allows individuals to find quality items at a fraction of the cost compared to buying new. 3. Unique and Vintage Finds: Thrift stores often carry unique and one-of-a-kind items that cannot be found in conventional retail stores. These vintage pieces can add character and style to your wardrobe or home decor. 4. Supporting Local Communities: Many thrift stores are operated by local charities or nonprofit organizations. When you shop at thrift stores, your purchase directly supports these organizations and their community initiatives. 5. Sustainable Fashion: Thrifting promotes the concept of slow fashion, which focuses on buying quality, long-lasting clothing instead of fast fashion trends. By supporting thrifting, you contribute to reducing the demand for fast fashion and its negative social and environmental impacts. In summary, supporting thrifting is an eco-friendly, cost-effective, and community-building choice that allows you to find unique items while reducing waste and supporting sustainable practices.

Ready to declutter? Here are some helpful strategies: ⬇️ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗻 𝗧𝗲𝘀𝘁: Ask yourself, "When was the last time I wore this?" If it's been over a year and you can't see yourself wearing it again, it might be time to let it go. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝗶𝘁 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸: Does the item still fit you well? Clothes that are too tight, too loose, or unflattering can be confidently recycled. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸: Look for holes, rips, stains, or missing buttons. If the damage is beyond repair, consider recycling instead of throwing it away. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸: Does the item still reflect your current style? If the style is outdated or doesn't suit you anymore, it could be a good candidate for recycling. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸: Be honest with yourself about sentimental items. If you haven't worn it in years and it doesn't spark joy, consider letting it go. Remember, someone else might find joy in wearing it again! Happy decluttering everyone! 🤩 #declutter #recycle #donate

𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐒 𝐄𝐂𝐎-𝐅𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐃𝐋𝐘 𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐄 𝐒𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐒 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐇 𝐃𝐀𝐘 𝐒𝐂𝐎𝐓𝐓𝐒𝐃𝐀𝐋𝐄, 𝐀𝐫𝐢𝐳. — In celebration of Earth Day, Grasons is highlighting the significant environmental benefits of purchasing items from estate sales. As a leader in the estate sale industry, Grasons is committed to promoting sustainable living and reducing waste through the promotion of a circular economy. Recent industry statistics reveal a growing trend towards sustainability and eco-conscious purchasing. Grasons is at the forefront of this movement, offering an environmentally friendly alternative to buying new by providing a wide range of pre-owned items through their estate sales. Dave Dembinski, Vice President of Operations at Grasons, emphasizes the environmental impact of choosing estate sales. “Estate sales are not just about finding unique items; they’re about making a conscious decision to reduce waste and support a sustainable lifestyle. Every item purchased is one less in a landfill, contributing to a healthier planet.” “𝘖𝘶𝘳 𝘭𝘪𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘴𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘺 𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 90% 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘦,” explained Dembinski. “𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘭𝘦𝘧𝘵 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘴 𝘶𝘴𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘴𝘩 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘢𝘯 𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘧𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘢 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘴𝘩 𝘤𝘢𝘯.” Grasons’ estate sales feature a variety of items, from furniture and home decor to clothing and collectibles, all of which can be given a second life in new homes. This approach not only preserves the history and character of these items but also aligns with the principles of the circular economy, where resources are reused and recycled for as long as possible.
