It has been a little difficult to find motivation for this project. I haven't had much turn out with getting people to donate, so I have been looking for clothes that in my own closet and my partner has been doing the same thing as well. I have learned about my topic that I need to find the motivation to allow my passion and want to learning how to up-cycle, a reality. This has been a good life lesson for myself, because it has made me realize that I need to work on taking initiative more in order to get something accomplished. Motivation has been the main setback, however I am confident that by up-cycling an item, I will find passion and motivation to continue working on this project. I plan on making a schedule to have deadlines for when I am going to have things finished for this project. Although I haven't had many donations from school, me and my partner have found some clothing of our own to up-cycle and plan on actually starting up-cycling clothing tomorrow (April 17th). This will be an exciting push in the right direction for us and will hopefully get us back on track. I can apply what I have learned to my future, by finding ways to get myself back on track when things do not go as planned. It is important to be flexible and I am learning to do that in this situation.
Reminder: As always, please donate any clothes you no longer want or need, it will be a big help!(Excluded items: socks and undergarments).

Have you though about putting posters up around campus? I also agree with the motivation part as this semester is coming to an end it's hard to find the motivation to do my project. However good luck in trying to collect more donations!

I bet it's hard getting people to donate clothes! Maybe you can have wrtv announce your project and allow more people to know about it!? It can help you get more donations!

This is such an inspiring project. I like the way you thought of this idea. I understand that time is problem because it also is in my project. Try putting posts about donating on social media. How long will upcycling the donated clothes take approximately?
