Oooh good luck with your hardware related project! 👀

It’s getting too dark to continue on, but I am so proud of completing ~75% of my to-do pile!

Not to sound too earnest, but I think it’s very cool to tweak clothes when possible to extend their closet life and minimize consumption ✨

Projects 10-11 feature the same shirt in different colors. These are great to wear under cardigans at work, but hit me juuust too low to look right. So I reduced the body by an inch and it’s wild how much more flattering that makes these shirts!

Project 9 was SO SATISFYING!!

I’ve had these paper bag waist shorts for years and I don’t love the way that waist type looks on me. But these shorts are incredibly comfy so I didn’t want to lose them either.

I removed the belt and belt loops, tucked in the paper bag excess, hemmed, and trimmed! 🪡

I love to hear it!! Sending you all of the luck and productivity to knock out your to-do pile!

Projects 6-8 were more t-shirt fixes via cutting the bottom. I think that’s all of the shirts done! (Famous last words??)

Project 5 was another speedy shirt slash! While out at a book club, the restaurant was promoting a new whiskey and gave us all free shots and shirts. I love taking shirts like this and cropping them into workout tees! 🪡

Project 4 was very satisfying! The skirt was ROUGH with a brown zipper and fraying hem. I took out the zipper as the fabric is incredibly stretchy and made a new hem. Fits like a dream! 🪡

That makes me so happy to hear! Sending you all of the luck for getting that pile reduced!

Project 3 was speedy! One of my favorite things to do to make a t shirt that doesn’t sit quite right on my body more wearable, is to chop off the end so it hits where I want it to on my hips. Sydney Graham has a great t-shirt hemming YouTube video if you’re interested, but I prefer a raw hem.

Project 2 was sewing up a giant rip in the leg and hemming these khakis! 🪡

Starting easy with Project 1 to get a quick win! The v on top makes this shirt too scandalous for my corporate office environment, so I just sewed it closed.

I love this challenge! I did a similar one this year and it was SO SATISFYING to chip away at my physical TBR!

Sending all of the good luck vibes your way—hoping for a swift and easy recovery!!

I’ll second the library comment above ^^

I’ve had great success in donating yarn or other craft supplies at mine!

Same!! Started playing it for the first time within this past year after completing Ocarina of Time, and despite wanting to love MM, it was sooooo miserable to play. Had to DNF 😭

True! (Can I assume that sickos is the name for AEW fans?? Haha)

I follow a YouTuber who turned her mini truck into a bookmobile to bring books to farmers markets, events, etc and every so often I daydream of doing something similar 👀

Thanks for the tip! Feeling encouraged to start exploring AEW after everyone has been so welcoming on this thread! 👀
