https://www.facebook.com/peppermintmag/postsMEND IN PUBLIC DAY GIVEAWAY
Mend In Public Day is an annual day of collective action which falls within @Fash_Rev Week. The idea is simple: get out into your local community and stitch in protest against disposable fashion. Amidst busy Saturday shoppers, you can repair your torn pockets and broken seams and spark conversations on making #LovedClothesLast .
In honour of the mending revolution, we’ve teamed up with our friends at @FabPatch.au for those who may be sewing adjacent (or possibly even sewing adverse) but still want to stand up against fashion waste.
Meet FabPatch – the award-winning rub-on repair patch! Their clothing repair patches are used by thousands of Australians to extend the life of their favourite clothes and gear, putting the stories of their life on display. FabPatch are water resistant, rubbed on with just your fingers or a spoon, and soft to touch. Keep your favourite clothes and cover your rips, stains, tears, holes, burns, frays, fades, and worn spots.
We’ve got 5 x Aussie Bundles to give away (including the Banksia design by @JocelynProustDesigns and the Budgie design by Charmaine Brown of @WarnayakaArtCentre – both come with black patches as well).
To enter, follow us and @FabPatch.au and tag a pal who might need some help in the mending department. We’ll draw the winner Thursday 30th April 12pm AEST. Australian addresses only. Good luck!
