Fixing a thrifted Anna Sui bag.
The toggle kept sliding down so I added a second row of stitches by hand which solved the problem.
While I was at it, I also restitched the ties where the stitches were broken.

When my clothes become too tired to be worn when going out, some of them are assigned to gardening duties.
The T-shirt in this photograph, frayed and with holes, must be around 15 years old. Not as old as I thought, in fact. A (now gardening) fleece is still in much better condition than this T-shirt and must be nearly 30 years old. Clothes do keep a long time.
I suspect that I would not feature in an industrialist's wet dream.
What do you all wear for gardening

Wow! went to a local thrift store with Teen, at her suggestion. I think I always thought it would be all crop tops and skinny jeans (not really how either of us are built), but she unearthed a number of dubious items that turned to magic once she put them on! Was great fun, we spent 2 hours there, and a whole new definition of self emerged from it all! 
I made a new YouTube short! A book haul from Goodwill. Took me forever to figure out editing the video, mostly due to the fact that my Android phone is slow lol.

Never mind the thrift flop bollocks, here's a FAST FASHION FLIP! 
This is a completely restored sequined bag I got from a fleamarket for a couple of euros.
The bag, originally from Zara, was poorly stitched together and none of the inside seams were finished.
The flimsy frayed satin lining had so much static cling, it was icky to touch. So were the ugly plastic handles.
The bag also couldn't be washed because of the cardboard uh... "interfacing".
The nasty foam plastic material inside reminded me of meat trays. Ew!
The whole interior needs to go in the trash!
Let's sew!
First I completely restitched the bag's sequined exterior, cut off the fraying excess material and finished all seams with a short zigzag stitch.
Then I carefully washed it by hand. Sequins get surprisingly dirty over time and after the wash, they sparkled like brand new!
Meanwhile I made a new lining and straps from thick and sturdy bridal satin leftovers.
I stitched the new straps onto the seam allowance by going back and forth several times to secure them firmly in place before folding it over.
Because satin is so slippery, I had to stitch the seam allowance down before pinning it to the outer bag.
Then I attached the lining by hand with tiny stitches.
The handles stitched to the sturdy lining won't put strain on the sequined material, which makes this bag last a long time.
So happy with the neat finish!

Why does the graphic on this #corning casserole dish from #1975 look kinda like #pixelart ? Anyone know? #thrifting #design #GraphicDesign #RepairReuseRecycle #curiosity
I was thrifting today. Found a beautiful vase. I think it is one of those W.Germany Fat Lava Vases.
(Apparently i can't upload a picture right now, so i will try again another time.)

I finally managed to find a small metal mug in a charity shop - it's insulated too!
I've been looking for one for so long, I can now stop carrying around my breakable mugs :)
(she/her) My thoughts about planting a garden (buy farm share instead!) Buyerarchy of Needs & how to shift your mindset about consumption: lots of links, ideas & frothy #solarpunk stuff to stare down the chaos.
Appliqué embroidery on a thrifted T-shirt which I made after punk singer Poly Styrene died in 2011.
This was before I even owned a sewing machine so I had to stitch the letters on by hand.
I can't remember where the green satin came from but I still have the spool of neon yellow thread.
The T-shirt doesn't exist anymore but I salvaged the embroidery and turned it into a patch.
