5 out of 5 starsMy new bag is so cute! It came out exactly the way I wanted it. A bunch of people asked me where I got it when I wore it out. Turn around time was fast for a custom order and the free gift was really sweet.
About ChaosCollectedShop
Well-Designed + Earth Friendly = Chaos, Collected
"More than 15 million tons of used textile waste is generated each year in the United States, and the amount has doubled over the last 20 years. An average American throws away approximately 80 pounds of used clothing per person. On average, nationally, it costs cities $45 per ton to dispose of old clothing. Synthetic clothing may take hundreds of years to decompose." (source: https://www.thebalance.com/textile-recycling-facts-and-figures-2878122)
I've always known that way too much usable material ends up wasted. That's the main reason I am a huge "pack rat" when it comes to things like fabric and old clothes.
For years I have been saving itty bitty pieces of fabric leftover from other sewing projects, clothes that have seen better days & random buttons that don't match. I have over 15 years sewing experience + as many years hoarding such items.
For me it is just wrong to throw away perfectly usable items like these & let them sit in a landfill when all they need is a little love and attention. As a result my house is pretty much overrun!
I decided to start this line as a way to do my part (however small) to chip away at the above figure and to make some space in my sewing room as well. Perhaps also open a few minds?
The items found in my shop are all one of a kind. They are made with lightly used + vintage items such as: clothes, sheets, curtains and other assorted odds & ends. I also use scraps of fabric leftover from other projects I've worked on over the years.
All of these things combine to give Chaos Collected it's unique flavor. No two items are exactly alike & any combination of the above may exist to create each one.
I personally design + sew each item myself. I sew on a Viking sewing machine, a Juki sewing machine and a Juki serger to create pieces that are worth owning & will last long enough to be kept out of landfills.

Shop policies
>>>PLEASE READ<<<
The materials used to make my items come from scraps leftover from other projects & upcycled/recycled textiles along with organic cotton. Due to the nature of my process there may be variations in texture between the different materials used. I pretty much let the fabric do what it wants :)
For this reason my items don't look the way you might be used to. There might be waves, wrinkles, fading etc. If you're looking for precision piecing & quilting there are lots of amazingly talented quilters here on Etsy. That's just not what I do. That said, please look at the photos carefully & ask any questions before checking out.
>>>THANK YOU!<<<

Shipping
-Currently, I ship using envelopes made from up to 50% post-consumer materials. These envelopes are also 100% recyclable as are almost all my packaging materials so please do :)
-I combine shipping on multiple items.
-Most packages ship USPS Priority which takes 1-3 days to reach addresses within the U.S., a little longer elsewhere. Smaller items are shipped First Class.
-Insurance is optional. It must be requested before checkout as there is an extra fee.
-Tracking is included on items sent to locations within the U.S..
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Due to the ever-changing costs of shipping these days, international buyers may occasionally be over or under charged shipping costs. In the case of an over charge, a refund for the difference will immediately be sent to the buyer.
Additional policies and FAQs
-For garments: these measurements are the actual garment measurements, not body measurements.
-Depending on the type of fit you prefer (fitted, loose...), each individual item may or may not work for your needs. Please see the measurements carefully.
TIP: A great way to tell if an item is going to work is to measure a similar one that you already own then compare those numbers to the ones in the listing.
