Condition:
the condition, color and material of our pieces can vary due to the nature of our work and because we only use existing materials. Some pieces may have light wear, stains, discoloration, holes, texture inconsistencies, etc. All of our materials are thoroughly washed, sanitized and cleaned 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.
Measurements:
We try our best to communicate the exact measurements of all of our pieces. Measurements are located on the product page of each piece. As each piece is completely unique, the sizes of each piece can vary. please feel free to contact us at hi@consistsof.com for any sizing questions.
Do you make custom pieces?:
Yes, you can contact us at hi@consistsof.com with your request for custom pieces. Similarly, if you like any of our pieces that are sold out, please feel free to contact us and we'll be happy to remake a similar custom piece for you. This also goes for sizing - if you like any of our pieces but don't see anything available in your size, please feel free to contact us and we'll be happy to make a piece in your size. We always aim to have a multitude of sizes available, but due to the uniqueness of each of our pieces, HOW EACH PIECE IS MADE AND the way WE SOURCE MATERIALS we can't always guarantee there will be a wide range of sizes available.
Where do you source your already existing materials?:
the existing materials we use are primarily made of post-consumer, dead stock materials and products sourced from various places. The following is an ongoing list that will be updated as we update our sourcing: Fabscrap, antiquefabric.com, ebay, Queen of Raw, 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 you no longer have use for, or if you have information on potential partners/collaborators.
