Do-It-Yourself Fashion and Clothing Repairs
If you have ever wanted to be a do-it-yourself costumer or fashionista? While sewing and design may be an art form, there are small, simple things you can do to create your own attire. Put your best foot forward by making sure your clothing always fits and reflects your style. Save yourself some money by learning to make simple repairs and alterations; and create your own clothes.
About.com has a great Do-It-Yourself Fashion section by Lorain Blanken that is consistently updated. The site features Rain's DIY Fashion Blog, tips for crafting your own accessories, instructions for making your own clothing and costumes, beginner projects, and how to make your own bags, accessories, and jewelry.
Whether or not you choose to use the free sewing patterns, handmade gift ideas, or designs for spicing up existing items, you can definitely draw inspiration from the pages of tips, tricks, pictures, and patterns; and learn how to fix and maintain the clothes you'd like to keep around.
