The UpScale ReSale & Design Challenge is in its 8th year as Wilmington’s most creative interior design competition. This 2-day fundraising event brings together local design firms who are challenged to utilize ReStore resources to upcycle, recycle, and repurpose donated items into beautiful vignettes. All items are then made available for sale to benefit Cape Fear Habitat for Humanity!
