How to Decide Which Clothes to Repair or Toss

By letter2self on February 20, 2023



Did your favourite garment get ripped? Did you lose the buttons or got a mysterious hole in it? In this video, I am taking you into my own mend pile as I guide you through the steps I take when deciding if a garment is worth repairing or not.

You always need to look at each garment individually when you judge how much time the repair takes vs. the final result (both in terms of the finished look and how long the repair will last).

Check out the infographic I made on my blog post for can to follow when you’re unsure if you should repair a garment or not: https://bit.ly/2uzLzJ4
