Clothes Sorting (Part II)

One week after our 1st clothes sorting, the number of collected bags have more than doubled - thanks to all you supportive donors and the mounting cleaning frenzy as CNY approaches :)

We embarked on the 2nd round of sorting last Sunday - very much needed since we could no longer walk into the room which we used for storage, since the entire floor was covered with plastic/paper bags of all shapes and sizes. Almost 40 bags were sorted, repacked into red plastic bags and labelled. We were one person down from the previous time, so this time it took two of us about 4.5 hours from start to finish (including 2 short breaks: one to eat ah-balling and another to get my stiff back punched by my ever-energetic project partner).

It was satisfying to see the pile of clothes we plan to sell at the flea market growing, and we are actively looking out for suitable flea markets to sell them at. If anyone has any recommendations (or lobang), we would love to hear from you! (Email us at spare.attire@gmail.com)
