SynnaminiRolls's Recycled Fashion Boutique?

General
I'll be opening a "Recycled Fashon Shop/Service" where you send me your damaged/torn/stained clothing and I'll either find a way to fix it or make it into something new and ship it back to you when it's finished. Only thing I'd ask is for you to pay the shipping to me along with $5-$10 per piece you send for labour and my materials, as well as include a return label in the package with your information already filled out.
And to inform you where the $5-10 would be going towards, It would be added to a savings towards helping others in need whether it be towards someone paying their rent, bills, food, or medicine so they can survive.
*Reason for price change-- My dad a made a point that $2 was too cheap and wouldn't even cover the cost of my materials to use
I know a lot of people out there who take 4-5 trashbags full of clothes to the landfill just because they're torn or got a bleach stain on em and I just think about all the people who can't afford to even keep their homes or feed their families long less afford new clothes.
So I mean, even like a friend's case with ripped pants, changing that into a coat or a bag or even something simple like a fabric bracelet, choker, or headband saves it from going to a landfill.
I know consignment shops like goodwill take used clothing and resell it, usually mark it up too to make a profit. But Why do that when you can have someone send you their clothes and either go "I want it recycled and sent back to me." or "I want you to keep what i send and when you recycle it, give it to someone that doesn't already have it."
