How often do you shop for new bras to spruce up your wardrobe? Ideally, every woman goes through an average bra-drobe once in 6mths. And that’s if you follow the ‘handwashing your delicates with cold water’ routine!
With Zivame, we encourage you to spoil yourself a little and shop from our latest collections! But what do you do about the guilt that envelops you, for having to dispose of your super supportive, and close-to-your-heart old bras?
Well, we’ve got you covered with some of the top 3 things you can do with your old bras!
1) Donate them to a cause
Wondering what to do with those new-ish bras that you may not want to wear or old bras that are still in pretty good condition? We’ve got an idea for you! Round up a few bras that you may no longer wear and donate them to an organization where you could help someone in need. This is also a super effective way to recycle wearable bras as opposed to simply disposing of them.
2) Get creative and DIY
If you’re in a creative mood, then get ready to make the most of it with your old Zivame bras! You can gather them all up and design an original piece. Invent a fun bra purse to carry all your lipstick, money and other compact essentials; the alternatives are endless! A quick search for a DIY video guide will help you put together the purse, without having to invest in too many extra products and accessories.
3) Dismantle and assemble
Do you find yourself reusing products or their parts until they are rendered absolutely useless? If you are someone who hates wasting any resources, then we’ve got your back with some fun ideas. Start off by dismantling all your old bras and separating the underwires and pads from the straps and bands.
- The wires in a Zivame bra are soft, comfortable and made of a moulded plastic or metal. This makes them a great resource to turn them into fun hair bands that you could also decorate with shells, beads, pearls and other pretty things you may have lying around.
- Zivame bras also have good quality bra inserts, reusable even at the end of their term! It doesn’t make sense to throw them out, right? You won’t have to because we’ve got an idea for you! You could cut out the perfect shape from these pads, use them as shoe inserts and finally bid goodbye to all those pesky shoe bites!
