Swap-O-Rama-Rama at Chicago Waldorf's school was not merely a clothing swap, but also a DIY celebration. Guests silkscreened, cut, and crafted gently-used garments to create entirely new fashions. Check out photos from this year's event, and get more information at their website. 

Post your photos in our Society Pages.
