I'm starting an upcycling business and want to clarify how you describe what I'm doing
I don't think using dress-making fabric for dress-making is recycling.
So if I buy dress-making fabric from a charity shop and make something out of it: is that part of 'reduce' or 'reuse'
Fabric I have had in my 'stash' and have had for several years is that reduce?
Or am I reaching too far?
Old Table cloths made into clothes is repurposing irrespective of whether they are charity shop/ragbag or whatever
& if I buy thread for a particular purpose then use it for something else 3 months later is still new?
All a bit garbled as I'm on my phone on a train
