If you have ever lost a button or sustained a small hole in your clothes, sourcing a matching yarn or button for repair can seem like too much hard work.
You have bought a new dress and it has arrived, proudly equipped with its very own repair kit. You can not wait to wear your new investment and so with one merciless yank and the tags and kit ready themselves for a journey to the landfill or to the bottom of the ‘everything’ drawer. Stop!
Manage your wardrobe investments
Contain all tags, yarn satchels and the like in a business card organiser. Not only will you have your ‘rescue’ yarn or buttons on hand, but it’s also actually a great visual of your wardrobe palette! Also, it may be an indication of how much money you spend on clothes, but who cares you deserve it!
Or to avoid losing replacement buttons is to sew them onto the inside hems of the garment they belong to. This trick is not new as some buttons are already stitched on, however, a quick stitch of various buttons on the seam of a heavy jacket (especially when travelling) is a great way to avoid having wardrobe malfunctions last minute!
