Hope you got lots of fun stuff from your virtual swap! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/socially-distant-sartorial-swappin-meetup#post-2110212 Mon, 30 Mar 2020 23:27:41 +0000 annabelle 2110212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:) &nbsp;As far as mechanics, I joined a ZOOM meeting with 8 participants on Saturday each on our own computer in our own closets with our own beverage of choice (naturally). Now each of us lucky recipients has a bag of the spoils with her name on it from each of the folks (5) cleaning out their closet. All the bags ended up on one of two peoples' porches, outdoors, with our name on it. I'm picking up my bag today (Monday) while wearing gloves, and then I'm just going to leave it in the car for a few days, because there's no hurry in bringing it in to the home. When it comes in the home, while wearing gloves, the items can be dumped directly into the washer, and the reusable bag will be wiped down with alcohol, just like when we buy groceries.&nbsp;</p> <p>Yes, it's a repeat of all the quarantine protocol, but it all has been a fun experience, to share with friends when we all are bored and lonely!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/socially-distant-sartorial-swappin-meetup#post-2110071 Mon, 30 Mar 2020 15:27:26 +0000 Zaeobi 2110071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It sounds like a lovely idea but I'll admit that I'm a little confused about the implementation - so the meeting is on Zoom when you're all in your own houses, correct? Then how do you get the clothing items in question - you deliver them to one another? Or are you all meeting up on Zoom but in the same room, like a socially distanced party lol? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/socially-distant-sartorial-swappin-meetup#post-2110024 Mon, 30 Mar 2020 11:55:43 +0000 Helena 2110024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it. Zoom meetings are the new black haha! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/socially-distant-sartorial-swappin-meetup#post-2110012 Mon, 30 Mar 2020 11:03:36 +0000 Kathie 2110012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great idea! And super cute owl print on that dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/socially-distant-sartorial-swappin-meetup#post-2109963 Mon, 30 Mar 2020 03:10:28 +0000 Jaime 2109963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great idea! As far as I have read, it is pretty unlikely to get the virus from clothing, certainly not if wiped and laundered. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/socially-distant-sartorial-swappin-meetup#post-2109895 Sun, 29 Mar 2020 21:15:20 +0000 Sal 2109895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this idea a lot.&nbsp; Spreading the fun in these tough times.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/socially-distant-sartorial-swappin-meetup#post-2109869 Sun, 29 Mar 2020 18:19:55 +0000 rachylou 2109869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that sounds like fun! </p> <p>We’re wiping down all packages and groceries, and leaving dry goods outside for three days. Laundering clothes should be good enough. 24 hours should be good enough for porous things like fabric and cardboard actually.</p> <p>...I don’t have the heart to tell my mother her throwing her jacket in the dryer for 30 minutes is probably NOT good enough... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/socially-distant-sartorial-swappin-meetup#post-2109847 Sun, 29 Mar 2020 16:32:56 +0000 always trying 2109847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Since it is confusing about this virus I would not even do that, although it sounds like fun. I have read it lives on clothing for 12 hours.&nbsp; I have even been washing down packages when they arrive before bringing them in the house.&nbsp;&nbsp; When I walked&nbsp; the dogs yesterday I saw my neighbor wiping down her water bottle delivery o the porch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/socially-distant-sartorial-swappin-meetup#post-2109836 Sun, 29 Mar 2020 15:24:57 +0000 nemosmom 2109836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fun idea!!&nbsp; I wish we had something like that in my community!&nbsp; (I can't wait to see what you do with those fun boots!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/socially-distant-sartorial-swappin-meetup#post-2109835 Sun, 29 Mar 2020 15:17:19 +0000 Angie 2109835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a lovely idea, <b>annabelle</b>! Thanks for posting and being positive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/socially-distant-sartorial-swappin-meetup#post-2109832 Sun, 29 Mar 2020 15:11:42 +0000 annabelle 2109832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last night a few of my friends hosted a Zoom meeting clothing exchange. Five of them had a lot to offer; three of us lurked and snagged a few lovelies (that will go stunningly with some Old Gringo boots, I'm quite sure).&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>I'm sharing this just to inspire you for fun beyond those virtual happy hours and DnD games that you're having these days. Stay safe, and enjoy all the things that we can embrace in life. &nbsp;</div> </p>
