Thread: found these old old-skool hiking boots in a state. Can I bring them back from the dead? #frugality #makedoandmend
Repairing your clothing gives it a new lease of life. Visible mending is a way to add colour, pattern and design, and creatively updating your wardrobe!

A little bit more of this 25 year old cardigan!
Extending the life of your clothing not only means you get to keep wearing your favourite garments, it saves using new resources and reduces waste!

First paircof socks darned using new mushroom.
Purple is the latest layer of darns.
I knitted these socks and I'm keeping them forever, even if they become 100% darn and 0% original sock.

Nothing says going on holiday like deciding you really need to sew a new item of clothing the night before/morning of. There must be a word for that, if not there needs to be. Charity shop skirt>shirt, self drafted, finished 6.30am #MakeDoAndMend #Recycle #Sustainablefashion
Really enjoyed volunteering at the Southfields Repair Cafe. Two pairs of trouser, a beautiful dress and a jumper all mended and still on the go #makedoandmend #slowfashion #lesslandfill
