About this Event
This event is in partnership with Second Sun Studio
Second Sun Studio is a Reno-based creative studio led by artist Danielle Warren, where textiles and everyday materials are transformed into unique works of art. Through hands-on workshops, Second Sun Studio inspires people to explore their creativity, connect with others, and give new life to materials through imaginative textile art.

In this hands-on workshop with Danielle, you will transform upcycled fabrics and yarns into unique chandeliers—perfect as closet décor or a creative light fixture. Tools and supplies will be provided but if you want to bring your own embellishments like lace, ribbon, or other details to their project, you are free to do so. Come weave, create, and give leftover materials a beautiful second life!
Give your wardrobe new life while keeping fashion fun, fresh, and sustainable! All shapes, genders and sizes are welcome!
What to Bring
We’re creating a curated shopping experience, so please bring pieces that reflect quality, style, and are in excellent condition, gently used items you would gift a friend.
Especially Desired:
• Gently worn clothing
• Unique one of a kind pieces
• Gently used or new bras and menstrual support product donations for i Support the Girls Non Profit
• All shapes and genders welcome
• Maximum of 10 items per person
Every item should be freshly cleaned, free of stains, odors, tears, missing buttons, or needed repairs.
Bring a bag!
Clothing tip: wear form fitting tank tops or shorts underneath to lessen exposure when trying on clothes. (Optional)
Please leave these at home
To keep the swap curated, we kindly ask that you do not bring:
• Heavily worn items
• Clothing with stains, holes, pilling, or damage
• Items better suited for donation
• Undergarments, swimwear, shoes, or socks
• Costume jewelry or heavily worn accessories
Our goal is quality over quantity—think boutique closet rather than donation bin.
