It was such a pleasure to gain your perspective. My goal as Founder of ClothingSwap.com is to inspire women (and Moms!) to either host or be a guest at a Clothing Swap. Either large or small, these events offer the opportunity to save money, find some fun, free styles, but also to connect, network, share, and help your community while helping your family too! For those who'd like to get on-going tips on how to host their own Clothing Swap, we'll be offering lots of suggestions for 2010 and beyond.

I've been to adult clothing swaps and this sounds like one of those "why didn't I think of that!" kind of things. Thanks for breaking the info down in such a user friendly way. Can't wait to see what else you've got in store for us! Amy, this is so useful. I’ve been to adult clothing swaps and this sounds like one of those “why didn’t I think of that!” kind of things.

It was fantastic - the second one I have been to. What a great way to de-clutter, recycle, and get some great, FREE stuff. Plus, they are so much fun. I haven't ever been to a kids' clothing swap, but I have bought lots of kids' clothes at consignment sales. So worth it.
