In honor of EARTH DAY
I can't help it.
She posts such great stuff,
I must forward it along.
Maybe many of you readers already read swissmiss?

This manifesto is the same as my mantra:
use it up
make it do
do without
and it really drives d.h. crazy
but it make so much sense.
Check out the repair manifesto in action in my world:
Bathrobe
Torn on the back from hanging on the hook for so many years,
so I had some new fabric sewn on top of the rips.
Good as new!
Jeans
Miss Is loves these red engines
so we have patched and patched the knee tears
TV Table
This was an old sewing table that someone gave to me.
I painted it black,
cut a circle out of plywood and painted it black too,
added a piece of glass
and some fun black ball fringe.
Voila!

Could have shown the TV itself. d.h.
I love to repair and bring new life to things, I call it "maintenance!" Some people let things go til they are broke, throw out and start new. I like things that have a story and get better with "repair."

I love the sewing table idea, especially the fringe!
