Shownotes
When Sarah Teresinski was a single mom, she couldn’t afford the beautiful little dresses she saw in stores for her daughter. So she decided to teach herself how to sew. That simple decision sparked a movement — and eventually, Redeux Style, where Sarah transforms old, unused items into something new and beautiful. Today, she helps people see the potential in what they already have or what they might find at the thrift stores — proving that sustainable can be stylish too.
“If everyone who follows me did just one upcycle a year, we could keep 60,000 pounds of waste out of landfills — that’s 5,600 garbage trucks saved.”
Hear Sarah talk about:
- How teaching herself to sew turned into a full-time creative business
- What it was like to face criticism early on — and why it fueled her mission
- The difference between fast fashion, fast furniture, and true sustainable style
- Her viral ceiling fan upcycle that caught the attention of The Drew Barrymore Show and Architectural Digest
- How small, beautiful changes can make a big impact — for your home and the planet
