Alfredo Moran said… - Hey there Thrift. Thanks for the request. I went ahead and added you. Awesome Concept! I really like the idea of taking vintage pieces that may not be so fashionable and revitalizing them into something totally unique and fashionable. The green aspect of the whole process is the icing on the cake. Well hey I'm not sure how I can help since I'm like the opposite of the 1 of a kind concept but let me know. email me at Alfredo@ApparelSolutionsInc.com and I'll do what I can. Thanks very much Thrift :o)

I'd love to help you recreate...
