Hello there!

Welcome to The Refash Stash! My name is Marisa, phonetically that’s Marie-sa!

I am a dental hygienist by trade but that leaves me longing to wear something with more personality than scrubs! I hope my little blog inspires you to change the way you look at outdated clothes by making you think outside the stitch!

What is refashioning, you may ask? To me refashioning is taking an article of clothing and making it into something completely new! This could be as simple as changing buttons on a shirt or making a suit jacket into a fabulous new purse! Refashioning is all about being creative! The best part is: There are no rules! Just go for it!

I started TheRefashStash in 2015 when I seriously got into sewing as a hobby. You could say I have been refashioning before I even knew what refashioning was! I started by paining my own custom t-shirts, taking in clothes and then making my own prom dress!

TheRefashStash is also a contributor on the community refashion blog: Refashion Co-Op. Check out Refashion Co-Op for exclusive RefashStash posts as well as many other inspiring posts by fellow refashioners!

TheRefashStash is also a guest writer on the online magazine Blue Water Healthy Living based in Port Huron, MI. Check out Blue Water Healthy Living for articles on healthy living, crafting, uplifting stories and news in the local Port Huron area!

The Refash Stash had participated in the friendly online sewing competition: Refashion Runway Season 3, came in 3rd place in Refashion Runway Season 4: Allstars and also Refashion Runway Season 5!

Go ahead, create something fabulous!!!

Happy Refashioning!!!
