I''m no seamstress, but I can sew on a button. become a fan and ''like'' FBS on Facebook. I really liked the fit of the khaki Ralph Lauren shorts, so I was bummed when I noticed a missing button as I was trying them on. Thankfully a spare was hidden inside the shorts. So mom made out well! Let us know in the comments. Thrifting'

These remind me a lot of the fans that you can buy for party décor. These work best with thicker grocery store brown paper sacks and you will need a sewing machine.

It needed to be altered to fit in some way, but I can't sew. I was a big Tori fan back in the day and still really enjoy her first few albums, but her recent albums don't do anything for me and honestly, her new face freaks me out. Got any other ideas for cutting up a tee that don't involved sewing? It was huge. An XL maybe?

Learn to hem and patch and sew on buttons to repair minor issues with clothing. If you can’t afford air-conditioning, consider a ceiling or attic fan as an alternative. Get some shoe polish and shine up those old shoes, take them to a shoe repair shop to have the re-heeled or soled if they are worn down. Buy good clothing, used.

When my parents were my age, they were empty-nesters and converted my bedroom into a sewing room for my mother. We must start saving for retirement again , we need to start college saving accounts, and it would be nice to take the kids to Disney while they’re still princess fans.

Apparently San at Loopsan.com is a huge Minion fan and created this crocheted Minion Christmas Stocking. While there are no instructions, I think all you would need is a template and then sew around the edges and Voila! So here is a perfect stocking from Michele at Sew Sweet Vintage: the Denim Christmas Stocking.
