Destash Bash
The Destash Bash!
Have an overflow of scraps, fabric, notions, trims, or supplies you just don’t want to use anymore? Bring them to SME to join our Destash Bash!
How does it work?
- Bring sewing and crafting related items clearly labeled with your name (see below for limitations)
- Items donated will give you “points”
- Points vary based on the category the item falls into (see table below for examples)
- You can use your points to shop in the Destash Bash!
- Each point = $1, so if you don’t donate, you can buy your points
- If you don’t use up your points, they can be transferred to the next expo Destash Bash
- ***Limitations: All items need to come free of pet dander, no smell of smoke, and in lightly used condition. Please no boxes or items that potentially have insects, mold, mildew, or major damage. We will not award any points for items brought in that cannot be used in the Destash Bash. This is at the discretion of the SM Staff and Volunteers.
- ***Limitations: Please do not bring in more than 2 large boxes worth of items to the expo. If you have a large donation to make please hit the Contact Us button to schedule a drop-off or shipment prior to SME.
