This TikToker Turns Bedsheets & Old Jeans Into Bucket Hats
I’m mesmerized.
TikTok is an oasis for anyone who loves to DIY. You can get lost for hours by watching before-and-after kitchen renovations or someone dyeing their clothes with turmeric. The social media platform has become a valuable source in providing fashion information and inspiration. If you’re ready to become completely mesmerized by yet another user, continue ahead. TikTok account Vintage Stock Reserve upcycles old items (think jean jackets and bedsheets) into brand new bucket hats and the videos are going viral. The bio for the account simply states, “Just two friends with a dream to be better.” The friends, Jordan Christopher and Tommy Foreign, have already accumulated over 1.9 million followers and 43.7 million likes on TikTok.
Their videos usually feature them cutting up various vintage finds such as sweaters, denim, and the aforementioned bed sheets to be then repurposed into new items. They’ve made face masks, hoodies, custom tops, and, of course, the popular bucket hat using non-traditional materials. (The duo even turned a Ralph Lauren bathing suit into a bucket hat — genius.) Christopher and Foreign are part of a community of content creators that strive to promote sustainability in fashion. Their videos inspire followers to give old materials and items a new life.
