Handmade with Heart Clothing Drive

I am very excited to announce that my local Etsy team, Wichita Handmade, is hosting a handmade clothing drive! Here are the details:

We will be donating new, handmade clothing to benefit victims of abuse. The clothing will go to a local shelter whose mission is to break the cycle of violence against women and their children by providing a safe place to stay and support services such as counseling, education and referrals to community resources.

All items are welcome but we especially could use:

-Sweatpants / Sweatshirts
-House Shoes / Slippers
-Jackets / Coats
-Underwear
-Blankets
-Pajamas
-T-shirts
-Socks
-Tennis Shoes
-Mittens / Gloves
-Hats
-Scarves
...and other clean, new, handmade clothing items!

Sizes needed: infants up to women's plus size.

Donations will be accepted through Friday, November 5th. Give your donation to a Wichita Handmade member, or drop off at any of these locations:

Wichita Pottery
300 N. Meridian

Twist Yarn Shop
607 W. Douglas Ave.

The Onion Tree
