Condition:

  • the condition, color and material of our pieces can vary due to the nature of our work. Some pieces may have light wear, stains, discoloration, holes, texture inconsistencies, etc. All the materials we use are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized before we work with them.

care:

  • the Full care instructions for each of our pieces are written on the product page. product pages for all of our pieces will be left on this website for you to always reference. For the majority of our pieces, we recommend that you wash them by hand as often as possible. This is not only the most environmentally friendly way of caring for our pieces, it will also help to extend the life of our pieces. We understand hand washing may not be an option for everyone. For machine washing, we recommend washing our pieces in cold water, on a delicate cycle and only with items in similar colors. we recommend using a non-phosphate detergent FOR both machine washing and hand washing. please note while we aim to utilize already existing materials that are made from natural fibers, that is not always possible. some OF OUR PIECES are made from MAN-MADE FIBERS. WHEN WASHED, man-made fibers RELEASE MICRO-FIBERS THAT ARE HARMFUL and disruptive TO HUMANS AND the earth. for this reason, we also highly recommend washing our pieces with a guppyfriend washing bag. please also note any of our pieces that have hand dyed elements (cyanotype dye, fiber reactive dye like procion mx, and solar fast dye) have all been treated thoroughly to avoid dye run off, but there is always a possibility of dye runoff.

sizing:

  • Measurements are located on the product page of each piece. As each piece is completely unique, the sizes of each piece can vary. contact us at hi@consistsof.com for any sizing questions.

sourcing:

  • the existing materials we use are primarily post-consumer, dead stock materials and products sourced from a variety of places. our current material sources are: Fabscrap, antiquefabric.com, ebay, Udelco Inc Vintage Clothing, and various thrift Stores in the Tri-State area. We hope to build partnerships with companies and organizations who have excess materials, products, etc. Please contact us if you have excess materials and products or if you have information on potential partners and collaborators.
