A stitch in time

Do you mend? Do you "upcycle" clothes or other items? Do you make things from scratch?

I would like to do more of this including making some jewelry. In the last few days though I did the following mending to keep what we have in use.

- Sewed a button one of Hubby's shirts. Found the button in the washer.

- Mended a tiny hole in a casual shirt.

- Turned an old casual shirt into an infinity scarf.

- Added a snap & decorative button closure to an old sweater

  2. I like the infinity scarf idea. I was given a sweater-like infinity scarf that is perfect. Give that a try.

Deer - 5 vs Us - 4 but at least there are flowers

  Apparently just ready to open Agapanthus flowers are a deer munchie! Last year we only had one flower sprout so this is still a win.
